I've been looking for one for years as I always loved that 1988-1991 jersey; sure I even started a thread here last year asking if anyone knew where I'd get my hands on one, if I remember correctly you steered me towards Castleisland but ya eventually got my hands on a 1989 league issue, long sleeved number 16 - the issue pre the display of a sponsor I think it is one of the nicest jerseys we ever produced, but anyway ya got my hands on it.. Santa will be kind.

I hear you horse, I'm ready to go right now, can't wait for McGrath cup, I'm half thinking of buying the Kerry jersey they brought out for us winning the allireland with the number 14 and champions on it, I can't really afford it but if I don't get it now will I be sorry when there gone? I don't know what to do.

ya K'boy1: Being honest personally I find it hard to justify paying that price for a new GAA jersey, the prices are gone a bit mad and we are coming very similar to the Soccer set up of new jerseys every second year…

In fairness, I think there after announcing that this will be the jersey for the next three years, so I'm happy enough with that. Havn't bought a jersey since 2009 one so think its time to upgrade...

Ya horse the jerseys are pricey nowadays and I'm looking forward to see what the away jersey and goalie jersey looks like.
The hermit 3 years isn't bad in fairness and I suppose a lot of the money from the jersey sales go towards the team.

I think it does horse , isn't that why the county board changed our crest so they could cash in on it , cause they couldn't do it on the old one?

If I could divert away from the talk about Kerry jerseys for a second!. I always believed that Tralee town,contained 3 senior football teams, Austin Stacks, Kerins O'Rahillys, and John Mitchels. However,I recently read on a website that John Mitchels are no longer a senior club.
Can some true Kerry Gael confirm this and maybe add a little about the respective histories of each club,like famous players, number of Kerry titles won, and any other useful information.

Thanks in advance, season's greetings to all in the Kingdom.
