Question for the irish about football

i think only the irish will be able to answer this football question. do cork have a red kit? i ask because my friends who now live in ireland bought my little boy one and i was puzzled because i thought they were green and have no idea what their away kit is lol the tag says county supporters on it too ;)

Re: Question for the irish about football

that'd probably be the gaa county jersey?

the cork city football tops are green and away is black i think? (they generally wear green home and away :P )

hope that helps.

Re: Question for the irish about football

ah gaelic football eh? that can be brutal stuff lol
can't find any match images with this kit in lol but i have found one with somebody in the crowd wearing it, plus on the back of this shirt it says corcaigh. the pic i found there is great big orange flag with corcaigh and a crest on it, looks to be in that big gaelic stadium that ireland wanted to use for their joint bid to get the euro's a while back lol

does this help? :D

Re: Question for the irish about football

the guy i have circled i think is the one, it's a tiny tiny bit different but that could be the same reason as all kits in sport change ;)

Re: Question for the irish about football

if i ever actually get around to visiting my friends in ireland it would be cool to witness the madness that is gaelic football :smt047
i think they are going to try and find a proper gaelic kit for my little boy at some point, but they don't know where to find one. any ideas?
