Best & Worst GAA jerseys of All Time

[Sidney]

This is my favourite GAA jersey of all time, modelled by a slimline Joe McNally, and also by myself (not pictured) on special occasions.

the 1980s Cork jersey was a lovely shade of red and had the simplicity that makes a good jersey



Compared to the horse's arse of later versions - the Chill logo doesn't go with red , for example

Proper Cork jerseys have to have a white collar like the one sported above by Seanie Leary*.

And no giant white hairs** on the lower part of the jersey.

*Seanie Leary, not Seanie O'Leary.

**Although that could possibly be a side on view of a garden fork.

What's a 'garden fork'? Bleedin' Dubs. A Beet fork, which has the rounded tines at the end, or a pitch fork, with the sharp tines, I could put up with. Even a 'pike' would have been more authentic even though there's an extra tine.  But a 'garden fork'? Abomination.

I wasn't aware there was any other type of garden fork, apart from what normal people call a garden fork, as I am urban and chic and not from a rural backwater where differences between garden forks may well be a regular topic of discussion due to the overwhelming boredom of living there.

And for that, you have my pity.

He means a grape. But the one in that pic has only three tines.

Don't you mean graip?

In my day, pitch forks had two tines. Graips could have had 3 or 4.

Never mind  the Dubs AZ, I'm wondering now did you have a secret Carlow upbringing I wasn't aware of? I'm all too familiar with the implement you refer to as a beet fork, I've spent many hours blistering my hands with it, but whether in Offaly or Roscommon, it's only ever been called (in my company anyway) after its primary use - a turf fork. Or was there work to be had on a beet farm somewhere around Cloghan that I missed?

Pitchforks still only have 2 prongs.

We only used it for turf as well, but still called it a beet fork.
