It was the Celtic cross that made this jersey for Gavin O’Connor.

9. Roscommon – 1985

A primrose and blue Rossies jersey with dermot earley bursting out of it was “some sight” according to Gunneros.

8. Cork – White

Dara-Doc didn’t sepcify if he meant the white away kit or the goalkeeper’s but we went for this one because we like it ourselves.

1. Carlow – All of them

The clear winner of our very unscientific poll. Martin Lennon said they “remind me of twister ice lollys.”

    Hello The score. Never won anything before. Hope Carlow can do the business against Westmeath tomorrow. No affiliation with the Carlow but always believe in the underdog and to be honest its just a mad happy jersey. From Armagh and will be wearing1999 ulster winning jersey tomorrow. Could have said something about past armagh jersey but they are a bit boring.Not sure the orange men will be marching very far this year.

    Th new Kildare jersey looks a bit hammy, so there will be two sets of hammy jerseys lining out for the Leinster quarterfinal on June the 2nd, Kildare vs. Offaly.

    The Meath ’91 jersey in the pic was only used for one game. Switch of sponsor and a move to the classic Kepak shirt followed immediately after Game 1.
