By the beard of Zeus Day-Lewis!
We’re a brilliantly beardy bunch here at JOE and, with all of the hairy hype surrounding a certain Mr Gordon D’Arcy of late, we got to arguing as to who was the owner of Ireland’s greatest ever beard. Unfortunately though, our in-house fighting, as well as our in-beard tangling, meant that we couldn’t quite settle on who was Ireland’s King of the Crumb-Catchers.
That’s where you come in JOE readers – we need your hirsute help.
We’ve compiled a shortlist of this nation’s greatest ever beard-wearing beings and we want you to vote for your chin-muffler of choice. And so, in no particular order (except chronologically), here are JOE’s favourite fantastically fuzzy feckers.
And no, your granny didn’t make the linty lineup…
