In 1918 they adopted the well-known sky shirt with the Dublin shield, even if the kit has been for many years different compared to the actual one: collar and shorts were in fact white and the socks hooped, white and blue. The change to the present look, with dark blue details, shorts and socks, was made in 1974.[2] Navy sleeves on the jersey were not used from 2013 until 2023.[3]       (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4[edit]The following is a list of sponsors of the Dublin county football team (senior).History[edit]Wexford defeated Dublin in the final of the 1890 Leinster Senior Football Championship (SFC). Dublin won its first Leinster SFC the following year by defeating Kildare in the final, and followed up by winning its first All-Ireland Senior Football Championship (SFC) by defeating Cork by a scoreline of 2\u20131 to 1\u20131 in the 1891 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship Final. Dublin retained the Leinster SFC in 1892, defeating Louth in the final and then retained the All-Ireland SFC with victory over Kerry by a scoreline of 1\u20134 to 0\u20133 in the 1892 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship Final.Heffernan and Hanahoe: 1974\u20131986[edit]“In ’73, a Dublin footballer had no profile whatsoever. We were regularly beaten in the first round of the Leinster Championship… Dublin didn’t really train in those days. We prepared for one championship match, were usually beaten by Laois or Longford and then had the summer off… But then when (Kevin) Heffernan came back into it in ’74, it was a different ball game… Much more rigorous in terms of tolerating any drinking or messing”.\u2013 David Hickey on the difference in Dublin before Heffernan and after Heffernan.[8]Starting from the 1970s, the Dublin team managed by Kevin Heffernan (and briefly by Tony Hanahoe) won four All-Ireland SFCs (1974, 1976, 1977 and 1983) and seven Leinster Senior Football Championship (SFC) titles (six of which were consecutive). It was also the first team to play in six consecutive All-Ireland SFC finals (from 1974 to 1979), a feat later matched by Kerry in 2009.In January 1986, Heffernan resigned as Dublin manager.[9]Post-Heffernan years: 1986\u20132008[edit]Dublin and Meath were involved in one of the most famous of Leinster SFC encounters in 1991, the Dublin and Meath four-parter. The teams had to go to three replays in their Leinster SFC first round match before a winner could be found. This series of games had the added factor of Dublin and Meath being long-time fierce rivals, a rivalry that intensified when Meath won four from the previous five Leinster SFCs and two All-Ireland SFCs over the previous five years, to replace Dublin as the strongest team in the province of Leinster. Meath eventually won the series, thanks to a last-minute goal scored by Kevin Foley, and a point scored by David Beggy, in the third replay. Foley took seven steps for the winning goal.[citation needed]Dublin qualified for the 1992 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship Final by defeating surprise Munster champions Clare in the All-Ireland SFC semi-final.[10] However, the county was surprised itself in the final to be defeated unexpectedly by Donegal.[11]Dublin qualified for the 1994 All-Ireland Senior Football Championship Final by defeating surprise Connacht champions Leitrim in the All-Ireland SFC semi-final. However, the county lost to Down in the final on this occasion.Gilroy, Gavin, Farrell: 2008\u2013[edit]  In the 2010s, Dublin produced the greatest teams in modern times. The Dubs won seven All-Ireland SFCs in this decade (five of which were consecutive, the first team to achieve this feat). Six of these were won without defeat (with the exception of one loss to Jim McGuinness’s Donegal in the 2014 All-Ireland semi-final). Dublin limited Cork, Donegal and Kerry to a single All-Ireland SFC each during that decade.Pat Gilroy led Dublin to the first of these All-Ireland SFCs in 2011.Jim Gavin led Dublin to the next six from 2013, including the five-in-a-row from 2015 onwards.He introduced new players to the team each year, starting with Paul Mannion and Jack McCaffrey in 2013, continuing with Cormac Costello and Nicky Devereaux in 2014, followed by Brian Fenton and John Small in 2015 and Davy Byrne in 2016.[12]On 25 March 2017, when beating Roscommon by 2\u201329 to 0\u201314 in a National League game at Croke Park, Dublin set a new record of playing 35 games in League and Championship without defeat. The previous record, held by Kerry, had stood for 84 years.Jim Gavin continued to introduce new players, with Con O’Callaghan and Niall Scully appearing in 2017 and Brian Howard and Eoin Murchan emerging in 2018.[12] But Gavin tended to wait one year from when he noticed them to introduce them to his team, O’Callaghan having been ready in 2016 and Howard in 2017.[12]Jim Gavin stood down as manager in 2019.Alan Brogan noted in 2020: “The only year he didn’t do it [introduce new players] was last year. Last year, [Jim Gavin] kept with the same players which, in hindsight, leads you to believe that maybe he had it in the back of his mind it would be his final year”.[12]Dessie Farrell replaced him.Mayo defeated Dublin in the semi-final of the 2021 All-Ireland SFC, ending a record run of six consecutive All-Ireland SFC titles for Dublin and marking the team’s first championship loss since the 2014 semi-final. A year later, Dublin met the same fate when Kerry defeated Dublin in the 2022 All-Ireland SFC semi-final,  Kerry’s first victory against Dublin since 2009.Current management team[edit]As of December 2020:[13]Manager: Dessie FarrellSelectors: Shane O’Hanlon, Mick Galvin, Brian O’ReganCoach: Darren DalyPhysiotherapists: James Allen, Niall Barry, Kieran O’ReillyAnalysis team: Stephen Behan, John Courtney, Frankie Roeback, Ciar\u00e1n TonerKitmen: David Boylan, John CampbellPerformance development coach: Bryan CullenMedia manager: Seamus McCormackGoalkeeping coach: Josh MoranTeam doctors: Kieran O’Malley, Diarmuid SmithSports therapists: Richard Daly, Paul DonnellyNutritionists: Daniel Davey, Neil IrwinCameraman: Chris FarrellLogistics: David HendrickDevelopment gym coach: Shane MaloneGym coach: Tommy MooneyPerformance consultants: Brendan Murphy, Se\u00e1n MurphyCurrent panel[edit]Team as per Dublin vs Kerry in the 2022 All-Ireland SFC Semi-Final, 10 July 2022INJ Player has had an injury which has affected recent involvement with the county team.RET Player has since retired from the county team.WD Player has since withdrawn from the county team due to a non-injury issue.Recent call-ups[edit]The following players have also been called up to the Dublin panel, with their most recent game supplied.Supporters[edit]Dublin supporters are commonly known as The Dubs, and in the 1970s as Heffo’s army.While songs are still popular with the Dublin fans they tend to be Dublin-centric, such as “Molly Malone” and “Dublin in the Rare Old Times”, or focus on the team itself, singing “Come on You Boys in Blue”.The Hill 16 end in Croke Park is an area for which many Dubs hold a special affection and it is not uncommon to see the Hill filled entirely with Dubs. Dublin supporters have been known to chant “Hill 16 is Dublin only” as a humorous jibe at supporters from rival teams.The Dublin team are sometimes called The Jacks, with the ladies called The Jackies. These names came from a shortening of the word Jackeen.[15][16][17][18]Rivalries[edit]Dublin’s biggest rivalry has been with nearby Meath. Both counties were the strongest sides from Leinster during the 1970s and 1980s. The 1991 four-game tie added to the intensity between the two counties. The Dublin football team also shares a rivalry with neighbours Kildare. Lesser local rivalries exist with nearby Wicklow, Laois and Westmeath.On a national level Dublin’s rivalry with Kerry is one of Ireland’s most renowned. The rivalry between the two counties intensified in the 1970s and early 1980s. Other smaller footballing rivalries have developed over the decades between Dublin and teams such as Cork, Tyrone (see Battle of Omagh), Donegal and Galway, who Dublin played in the 1983 Final known as the Game of Shame.Managerial history[edit]Dublin \u2014 like Cork, Kerry and Tyrone \u2014 traditionally appoints managers from inside, rather than seeking a “foreign” appointment.[19]Kevin Heffernan 1974\u201376Tony Hanahoe 1976\u201378Kevin Heffernan (2) 1978\u201386Brian Mullins, Robbie Kelleher & Se\u00e1n Doherty 1986Gerry McCaul 1986\u201390Paddy Cullen 1990\u201392Pat O’Neill 1992\u201395Mickey Whelan 1995\u201397Tommy Carr 1997\u201301Tommy Lyons 2001\u201304Paul Caffrey 2004\u201308Pat Gilroy 2008\u201312Jim Gavin 2012\u20132019Dessie Farrell 2019\u2013Players[edit]Notable players[edit]Records[edit]Most appearances[edit]Stephen Cluxton made his 112th appearance in the All-Ireland Football Championship when he captained Dublin to their six-in-a-row on 19 December 2020.Cluxton became his county’s most capped player, overtaking Johnny McDonnell’s record against Meath in the National League on 17 October 2020.[23]Top scorers[edit]Dean Rock is the team’s all-time record scorer, surpassing the long-time record of Jimmy Keaveney against Meath on 17 October 2020. The early goal for Rock in this National League match at Parnell Park  meant Rock had scored 17\u2013442 (493), one ahead of Keaveney’s 30\u2013402 (492). Rock achieved this in 95 appearances to Keaveney’s 104.[23]C\u00fa Chulainn Awards[edit][edit]1963: Lar Foley1974: Kevin Heffernan1976: Jimmy Keaveney1977: Jimmy Keaveney2nd1983: Tommy Drumm1995: Paul Curran2010: Bernard Brogan Jnr2011: Alan BroganAll Stars[edit]Dublin has 141 All Stars, as of 2022. 66 different players have won, as of 2022.

This result was their consecutive eighth, making history and saw it become Leinster champions for the twelfth time in thirteen years. Only Meath has split their wins, winning the Leinster Championship in 2010.Dublin has won the National Football League on 14 occasions, most recently in 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2018 and 2021.
