Today’s eagerly anticipated Ulster senior football championship final saw a closely contested first-half in Clones with Derry taking in a 1-5 to 0-7 lead against Armagh.
However, some viewers of the provincial decider have expressed their disappointment with what they see as a jersey colour clash between the two oppositions.
Holders Derry are in red and white while Armagh have donned their tradition orange colours and some onlookers have complained about the colours clashing, with one tweeting that it's “very difficult to distinguish the teams on the telly”.
Others also aired their annoyance at the noisy vuvuzelas in the crowd which could be frequently heard over the television commentary.
Everyone’s away jerseys must have been in the wash #UlsterFinal

Very strange that there wasn't a jersey change for the Ulster football final. Very difficult to distinguish the teams on the telly. #GAA

TweetSo Derry home colours are white and small bit of red, Armagh regularly wear black for sales, so for the Ulster final Derry decide to wear their red away colours, Armagh decide orange today, and no one has a clue what's what. There's fucking idiocy and there's this. #gaa
