Ranking every county’s goalkeeper jersey in order of tidiness

In the words of Father Ted, look at all the lovely jerseys.

There's at least 13 genuinely glorious pieces of kit that anyone would be lucky to have in this collection. Yep, the goalkeeper jersey range is where it's at this summer. Granted you might have to go outside of Ireland to find the GAA's tastiest goalkeeper jersey, but there are still some gems to be found in the All-Ireland football and hurling championships this season. Here are the best and worst of them.
Disclaimer: As much as you might think so, there is no science to this selection process and rankings are purely subjective. SportsJOE will not be held accountable for any offence caused.
32. Down Must try harder. 31. Fermanagh Not the worst thing in the world. But, then again, the worst thing in the world is f**king horrible. 30. Meath Would make a good kit for a summer camp steward. 29. Leitrim Some say that, if you look too long, you can develop glaucoma. This is unproven as of yet. 28. Clare Looks like a toy truck. 27. Longford As yellow jerseys go, this isn't offensive. 26. Louth Uninspiring. 25. Cork Eaten by a GAA sock. 24. Limerick The finest Limerick jersey there's been in a while. And that's saying... nothing. 23. Mayo Three kits for the price of one. 22. Kilkenny Unfinished paint job. Would've been pristine otherwise. 21. Monaghan I mean, it's grand.   20. Derry They start to get pretty good at this stage. 19. Tipperary Nice jersey, if very indecisive. 18. Offaly Finally, an Offaly jersey we can get on board with. 17. Westmeath Green or maroon stripes, it works. 16. Armagh The Ulster boys get very competitive now. 15. Antrim Something to celebrate for once. 14. Cavan Yes.   13. Kerry Fierce. 12. Wicklow Weird, luminous colour and it isn't horrendous. Deserves a medal for that. A goalkeeper jersey medal. 11. Donegal A cheeky little devil of a shirt. 10. Carlow Carlow without the green, yellow and red stripes. What's not to love? 9. Laois Clean. 8. Roscommon Royal blue, yellow pinstripes. Two thumbs up. 7. Kildare No f**king around here. 6. Waterford Azzuri's entry is just delicious. 5. Galway Ah shtop. 4. Dublin No need to tamper with this bad boy. 3. Tyrone The balls on them to produce this. 2. Wexford Come on. It's a lovely white and a gorgeous purple. 1. Sligo Sligo and jerseys are just a match made in heaven.
