Over the last 130 years Irish football has transformed, developed, grown and prospered in line with our own national identity, from 19th century garrison game to 2012 in Poland and Ukraine. This documentary series features personal accounts of a rich host of footballers, managers, pundits, historians, and journalists.
Â
Who remembers the forgotten fact that a former Irish player managed Barcelona and is credited with saving the club?
Â
Few cultural institutions have captured the national imagination quite like the national soccer team. Green Is The Colour is a sporting story, a political history and a social narrative but most importantly, a human story, told by the people who lived it.
