Mayo not allowed incorporate a rainbow design at the request of their charity partner because the jersey is sacrosanct. Unless of  course it's a sponsor or manufacturer logo.

Right answer, wrong justification for me.

Already been a precedent set, UL had pride colours on their jerseys. Like you say if it was some conglomerate wanting to splat their logo all over a jersey the bigwigs wouldn't give a hoot.

Virtue signalling shite.

Agree. Same as the world cup rainbow shite.

Maybe it's to symbolise that Mayo are as likely to win Sam as someone is to find the leprechaun and pot of gold at the end of the rainbow?

The treatment of the migrant  workers building the stadia in Qatar has all been forgotten about in the constant  talk of gay rights.  Some estimates of 6,500 dead, thousands paid  shite wages or none at all .

Yer woman Alex was lauded for wearing a rainbow armband on the sideline .  That's all well and good , so why didn't she wear an arm band on the other arm  in support of the migrant workers?

Because LGBT advocacy groups have asked for a stance. Migrant workers equivalent hasn't

A lot of young gay men still feel uncomfortable fitting into local sport

Indeed. And some of the commentary on this shows why we need this sort of thing.

But if Mayo get this, a midlands county get 'let us cut turf'. Then it's 'upgrade our hospital'. Then 'Prosecute Soldier F'. Then 'our county is full, no refugees' and then we are in a world of pain.

Say that, not patent bullshit about shirts when anyone can sponsor a team.

The Mayo kit is shite looking as It is without adding more colour to it. Poss  thry could have a full rainbow kit instead.

Personally I really dislike/hate all the advertisements on intercounty jerseys.
I understand the sponsorship deals etc,
Mayo one is way too busy IMO.
I would gladly pay a lot more for a retro one, the sponsor can have the premium paid.
If this keeps up, the players will be like Formula 1 drivers

As with coloured armbands, poppies, taking the knee, and the hundred other things that attach themselves to sport over the years, nobody notices or cares. It makes no difference at all to anyone. Nobody sees/hears the message. Until one day, someone refuses to comply. Then he'll breaks lose.

Did Kildare not produce one with a rainbow trim for Anthony's testimonial?
