Ok, if you get past the title, I ask why can't we wear blue unless there is a clash? If,as has been suggested, adidas want 3 kits for commecial reasons (is that right) how about a different style/design of blue shirt for the away kit? The third kit would be another colour 23 hours ago, mozartfox said: I think we have more pressing things to contend with at the moment. Perhaps.

Pretty much what you said about Adidas. I think it's to do with our marketing team too. It's been spoken about on here before.

That defeats the point of having another kit. The reason teams have 3 kits is in case both their home and away kits are too similar to an opponent's home kit (e.g. we have a white away kit and are playing Brighton/Huddersfield/etc.). I think it would be nice if football stuck to tradition and only used home kits unless it's too similar to the opponent's home kit, but I can see why this has changed.
GloverFox Posted 8 January 2019 Posted 8 January 2019 For what it’s worth I love the grey kit and very much dislike the white kit, but I totally agree with Raw Dykes with using the blue kit unless it’s absolutely too similar to the opponents kit! ..... then i’d be going grey?
koop. Posted 8 January 2019 Posted 8 January 2019 Madness, they grey kit is a thing of beauty. One of the nicest kits we've had in a long time Slick
Anglodanglo Posted 8 January 2019 Posted 8 January 2019 True fact: We won every game in this away kit. Mostly due to involuntary vomiting from opposing players as we ran out the tunnel. Disclaimer: Might not be true

I'm thinking it's not good. Maybe pushing the old green and gold Ind Coope one for having a bad record. For some reasons, fans seem to like that one, but I associate it with a terrible win percentage.

By the far the worse of all three. I’m not a fan of the white away kit you can almost liken it to a generic school football team kit let alone a professional clubs kit it’s boring unimaginative and cheap looking preferred the black and gold and Red away kits !!
Heathrow fox Posted 8 January 2019 Posted 8 January 2019 The white one reminds me a bit of the England 82 World Cup admiral job without the red bit i like it.In fact their all good efforts.

I thought that there was a TV rule that one side should be dark and one side light? I could well be wrong or living in the dark ages
Stadt Posted 9 January 2019 Posted 9 January 2019 I’d like the away kit if the trim wasn’t neon shite - it’d look better if it was white
H.a.r.r.y Posted 9 January 2019 Posted 9 January 2019 the old away kit (black with a blue sash) was always my favourite

I wouldn't be opposed to having an alternate home kit for European competitions (à la Dortmund) in the future tbh

Jimothy Posted 9 January 2019 Posted 9 January 2019 When they released the grey shirt I hated it, and when they released the white shirt I loved it. I went in the shop to get the white shirt, saw it for real and realised it's not that nice. Then I saw the grey shirt for real and

I could well be wrong or living in the dark ages I've exchanged correspondence with Sky about colour clashes as perceived by those of us who are colourblind, particularly those instances where two teams playing in dark strips (albeit different colours) are hard to differentiate. Sky said they have no influence on the strips used. I am aware that before the season teams must submit their strip choices to the Premier League for some sort of colour analysis to ensure there is never a colour clash, but this analysis does not take into account how colours are seen by the colourblind. The FA claims to be making football accessible to all, but its own guidelines around colourblindness are routinely ignored by clubs.
Cala Bona Fox Posted 10 January 2019 Posted 10 January 2019 As a fashion item the grey shirt probably is a thing of beauty. For playing football grey should never be worn.

The game went on though. Vague memory , I was very young. Could of been the baseball ground???
