Newry firm's Jedward moment

Wednesday 17 February 2010

A Newry firm scored some great publicity when Jedward, who took ITV's X-Factor show by storm, were snapped and televised in the company's GAA jerseys from years-goneby. The duo that people loveto- hate was seen by millions wearing the shirts made by RetroGAA.

Using archive footage, newspaper reports, photos, old jerseys and firsthand accounts, RetroGAA has endeavoured to recreate classic GAA county jerseys. The firm was set up by Brian Irwin, a former Down county footballer.
