Seconded on both counts. EDIT: Seems I'm too late on the first kit.Quote:

Given
Given for me,Kelly's is like a type of Hi-Vis jacket.. ;)
match 3, Kelly's cause it made me laugh! The absolute state of it.
i'll give it to Kelly. Still think the first two kits in the first round were the two best so far... an opening round final perhaps
I think I can blow up match 2 slightly early - 10 for Bazunu versus my solitary half. Cue the "You wouldn't have voted that way if it was Kelleher" comments! :p
Round 4 sees the 90s get even 90s-er, as Alan Kelly wears...I'm not sure what, and he does so against Paddy Kenny in another generic dark top thingy.

Kelly again. The white looks well.
He has the same shorts as in game 3, so maybe the one in game 4 is the away version
Kelly in this round.
Could be; looks to have the same pattern in different colours. It's much less of an eyesore than the game 3 one, if so. I'll go Kelly on this one too.Quote:

Both are a bit crap, but Kelly is celebrating an Irish goal and looks happy with his lot, therefore he gets my vote.
I'd say you've home/away the wrong way around. The white one seems to be in Lansdowne Road. That'd make the red one the away kit.Quote:

Kelly.
Kelly for me this time round. Still not a great jersey, mind, but at least it's making an effort.
Kelly again
kelly for me.
Some consolation for Given as his Henry kit cruises into the next round 8-3. But Kelly is 9-0 up against Paddy Kenny, and though there's still time for a comeback (until 6pm this evening)...there's not really.
Kelly is back for more 90s madness in blue and yellow, while in the yellow corner is Shay McDonagh, sporting the second oldest kit in the competition, from 1984.

I do like an old school O'Neills, I blame the GAA, McDonagh gets my vote.
Kelly over Kenny's training top for sure.
Also Kelly's blue/yellow (now that's good ugly!) over McDonagh though it's probably the first one where I like both of them.
mcdonagh for me. have a very soft spot for those early 80s shirts.
Kelly for me over McDonagh. McDonagh's shirt looks more like a rugby jersey than a keeper's one.
Rd 4 & 5 Kelly
That Rd 5 keeper jersey was the first 'unusual' colour selection that I remember.
Kelly v McDonagh
I like both. McDonagh's is a tidy jersey, but it's just a bit too Gah for me. Kelly's makes me want to dig out some 90s music and finish work an hour early.
Kelly it is.
11-0 in match 4; a real hammering there as Alan Kelly goes through.
I'll leave match 5 up for the weekend as it's typically quieter on here. We're half-way through the first round, and I'll pick it up again on Monday morning with match 6 - Wayne Henderson v Dean Kiely
Round 5 - Kelly
I’ll go for McDonagh
Narrowly McDonagh, both nice
McDonagh,nice retro.
Kelly for me.
That looks like the shirt McDonagh wore v Belgium 1981 when he made a total hames out of trying to deflect that late free kick over the bar, ultimately denying us a World Cup Final spot.
A really tight match there, but Alan Kelly edges it 6-5. Wouldn't be surprised to see the McDonagh kit given a back door back into the competition later in the week though.
We're half-way through the first round now, though only 10 of the 38 kits have made an appearance so far. We'll get round 1 finished by Wednesday and then go into the repechage to set us nicely for round 2 (the last 32) next week.
As promised, this match is Dean Kiely v Wayne Henderson. Specifically, it's the 2002 World Cup kit against the late Stan era kit. But which stays and which goes?

Henderson please
I'll go for Henderson, the blue is a bit different.
Henderson for me too. The Kiely one is a bit uninspired.
That’s a really tight one.
I’ll go for Kiely as it reminds me of good times
Henderson comfortably for me though Kiely's is decent by the standards of dull, black shirts.
Hendo.
Kiely.(little bit of green swung it)
Big lead for Henderson so far, although I think it's a bit harsh on Kiely; I like the green stripe.
Still taking votes till the morning, but in the meantime, we have one of the heavy hitters joining in now. It's won the best home kit and the best home kit - can the 88/90 top pull off the treble? To do so, Packie is going to have to beat another yellow outfit from 2003, here modelled by Nicky Colgan.

Poor Colgan. That's not a bad shirt at all, but it's not even different in any advantageous way from Packie's. Bonner all the way.
