The county colours thread

[laoislad]

In the old days players at both Club and County had to supply their own shorts so white for everyone.
I believe Down in 61 were the first to go non white causing consternation among some fíor Gaeil for copying soccer believe it or not.

Kilkenny were wearing black shorts long before that as can be seen on the wikipedia page with images of their 1923 team. Their jerseys look better with black shorts but they believe the white ones are luckier.

I wish they had stayed with black shorts so!
