Colours & colour blindness

[brownblade]

Hopefully rules and guidance are followed this season to help those affected. Is our light purple 3rd kit a bad start, or does it just depend on the opposition kit?

Another derby match that was completely unwatchable for me as it was dark and white striped shirts with plain dark shorts against….. dark and white striped shirts with plain dark shorts.

I turned off after a bit - then watched a bit more after half time, and when the ball fell to Brewster for the goal I had absolutely no idea if it was one of our players or one of theirs.

I turned it off again. Completely pointless watching. What is the point of away kits?

Oh great - we are wearing our home kit again on Sunday. More of the above for 1 in 11 men. FFS!

Just look for the team that's progressing up the pitch, then you know which one isn't us

Great - just great.

With 1 in 11 men having some degree of colour blindness it's great to see the FA Cup using an orange "high visibility" winter ball for use on green grass!!! WTF!!??

I have been following this thread with great interest since its conception and am 100% supportive of the argument...I have also mentioned it to many of my football loving friends, however I can only see a team in black versus a team in red in this photo...please enlighten me as a non colour blind affected person as to the issue here...

Certainly can, they all look as if they are wearing exactly the same kit.
Very hard thing to describe!
