Floriana are known as "Tal-Greens", but they also carry another nickname that always grabs attention: "Tal-Irish".
The story goes back to 1905, when Floriana played a match against the Royal Dublin Fusiliers. In that era, British military teams were part of local sport, and matches like this were big occasions. After that game, Floriana began to adopt the Irish colours: green and white—a look that became inseparable from the club’s identity.
