Drumcondra

Drums traditional colours were always yellow jerseys and blue nicks. However towards the end of their league Ireland days, they did wear a light blue strip. Remember seeing Pete Mahon and Eoin Hand playing for Drums in those days. That was the 70s. But in the 60s I'm told it was full houses all the way.

Sounds a bit like the Home Farm kit.

Rovers weren't homeless in those days, so can't have been them.....

I attached a pic of the Drums team that played against Athletico Madrid in the early 60s in the Inter City Fairs Cup

My uncle played for Drums (Bernard Carroll). Would have been the late 60's/70's.

Brian DaSalvo also played in goals for Drums for a while

I had them (and in fact, still have them - as I've just checked) in Subbuteo. Officially listed in the catalogue: 'Yellow shorts and blue sleeves'. Same colours as Bangor.
