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

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
)
hope that helps.

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?

no that's not it lol
i think it must be some sort of supporter only shirt or something.....
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

if i ever actually get around to visiting my friends in ireland it would be cool to witness the madness that is gaelic football
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?
