I'd love to know the deal they're getting.... I doubt we're talking about a significant uplift in profit share let's be honest. I won't be buying it either to be honest. A poor move to be honest.

I can't see many paying 75 euro for a brand that is not known. It's no cheaper than an O'Neills jersey. So id agree a very poor move. I know the players would prefer to be kitted out in O'Neills gear. It's a small thing and so easy to get right. Not surprised they got it wrong.

As far as I am aware it never been about a deal, it's about supply to the county setup. O'Neil's was always a problem getting gear every year. O'Neils wouldn't give hoot about Leitrim as the general public sales numbers aren't there, so all category of the county setup was always waiting until last minute for gear. That's why they switched to McKeever I believe, but I believe the last year or 2 McKeever supply also became an issue.
