Colour clashes

[ratcatcher]

Whatever happened to the rule that teams wearing the same colour shorts, the away team should wear a different colour!?

 

Oh shit.

Maybe it's only if the socks match too?

[Original202]

Surely if they're the same colour they aren't clashing? They are in fact matching, the exact opposite of clashing.

Does anyone know why we played in the euro kit yesterday?

 

Really is a bit silly.

The fact that we had to change our shorts too. Now Id like it if someone could correct me if Im wrong, but I thought changing the kits was so that the referee can tell the difference between the two teams. Now surely he can tell the difference by the fact 10 guys were wearing white shirts, and 10 were wearing pink.

i like the white and black combo kit . boss it was.

I remember United wearing black shorts and white socks quite often with their home top because of a clash, but that doesn't seem to happen so much now.

 

Maybe that's because they just wear the away kits more often.

i think we played in the euro kit because after the champs league draw they realised we might actually never have to wear it, bit sly on all the people who bought it i suppose, shit having three kits anyway i reckon

 

and on the colour thing, why do we always wear white socks at pompey instead of throwing the away kit on, hate that white socks with the home kit

[Chinandeler Bong]

Just watch the game on a B/W tele - problem solved.

[old skool tom]

wish we'd go back to the 70s and wear our red home shorts & socks at west ham wth our white away top! those were the days!

I'm sure we've done that more recently, cant pinpoint when though. We should go back to keepers wearing the home shorts and socks though

For point 1, we'll need to wear white away to Debrecen since they wear red at home. We'll also need it away to Fiorentina since both the red and charcoal kits won't contrast enough with Fiorentina's purple. Also, Lyon are wearing their Euro kit both home and away (if possible), so it's possible we'll be wearing either our home kit or the white kit when we play them away. We'll also likely use the white kit away to both Burnley and Villa. Put simply, it will be used far more than last year's green kit.

 

For point 2, we did wear our away kit when we played at Fratton Park twice in 2003/04. We fucked up in both matches. Since then, I think we've beaten them every year except in 2007 when we put our reserve team out. Last year Pompey wore all blue so we didn't need to change socks.

We had the silver shirt and red shorts and socks at Arsenal last season.

It all means the same. :whistle:

Bollocks! We'll never pay off the debt if the club doesn't sell all those sets of home and away keeper shorts and socks!

[23_Carra_Gold]

Our keepers kit should be green every year.

[Acid]

Our keepers kit should be green every year.

 

Exactly, like a ninja in the grass.

 

I think last year at arsenal would have looked a lot better if we just keep red home, white away.
