wearing green a disgrace

Might be bollixology to you Latebutgreat but to a lot of us it's a great source of pride and identity.
Doesn't matter the size and professionalism of the team, be it Barcelona, Shamrock Rovers or Kildangan, colours mean something.
Like I said let them wear green for a few games if it's some sort of psychological boost to them, but long term, it's got to be all white.

To me doesnt matter what colour the lads wear once we win

carburyman agree who cares as long as we win

Remember 1998 when Croker was a sea of white, I was so proud to be a Kildare fan that day...don't think a sea of green would do the same for me being honest

Quiet right wingback,see of white is great,maybe and hopefully if we get that far this year ,we wil wear all white

to be honest im a newbie to this fourm but so be it yes kildare are kowing for being the lillie whites but what about it the new green jersey is different and to be honest its a nice jersy who cares what colour we are wearing as long as the lads are winning also its a new team a new magament the past 2 years or so so why not a new jersey in this day n age what does it matter im a hugh kildare supporter but this is one change i like sometimes different is good and people need to relise that lets get out of the old kildare thinking days n move with the time n also with regaurd to seen croker in a sea of white that wont happpen n e more cause most supports wear the club tshirts jackets ect so lets all pull together n get the lads ta wear green for the rest of the year. the lean green kildare fighting mechines

Also the Dubs are known as the boys in blue but now they have red on there jersey

In fairness Sligo use to wear white but they beat us wearing black in 2001 and haven't wore white since..

If the lad that was giving out at the county board meeting about not wearing white at all times reads some of the replies on here he'll digging a big hole somewhere to throw himself in.

I for one would not be in favour of them wearing green in the long term, i don't mind them wearing green in the even of a colour clash or if they are playing away but we're Kildare, we're unique in that we share colours with no other county on the country.
There are plenty of red and whites, green and whites,blue and white.
But no one is Bán go leor.

that's how I see it Fionn.

i dont mean to interrupt here , and correct me, is the county jersey not white because clane were county champions " Kildare entered the second championships in 1888, and was represented by Clane" what if towers ,sarfields naas etc , won the county in 1888 would any of there colour improved the countys record, ??? ,infact the final in that year was clane v nass so it could have been blue/white hoops !!! ,i think its a case of the men in them which count !!!!! so if green works f..k it , if its black /amber , the green/white sash , who cares its the results , and to date , i would 100% say that its "the men inside them which count " be happy lads , and thats just a neutral view , if a green jersey gives them the belief they are bullet proof and full of confindence , go with it ,i dont think the colour of your jersey will stop teams scoring or beating you, its the heart soul and belief which fills them jerseys. And thats from a dub and as the above poster states mountains and mole hills in the flat plains of kildare , why go with the flow , geezer is no fool , you think the orange jersey he wore in 2002 and its associated ramifications living in ulster ie: the orange lodge/order hindered armagh , not a chance , it was the men inside those jerseys !!!

It is the men inside that make the jersey but tradition is very important.

I work with a few Dubs and they were none to happy to see Red appear on their new Jersey's. In fact, I'd say a few Dubs would rather cut their own heads off than wear a green Jersey in Croke park.

White is the County Coulurs, that will never change but wearing green the odd time does no one any harm.

Sorry Vodafone,
I'd have to draw the line if Kildare sported a white sash accross a green jersey. I may as well support Laois then.

Kildare won the toss for Jerseys last night and will wear white on Saturday.

Did fone inform you of that, unless he did I'll refuse to believe it.
