Red & White vs White and red

[Blade56]

WTF is going on with clashing kits in near mirror images of red& white? Today and Crew, found it off putting. What happened to away kits?

Sums up our kit when the away team for the second time this season play in red and white. Ludicrous.

 

[Tyler Durden]

We were white where they were red and red where they were white.

It's no clash for me and I'm actually colourblind.

So how do you know they were red where we were white and white where we were red? They might have been white where we were red and red where we were white instead!

I'm not that bloody colourblind!

It's certain shades of orange and green I mainly get mixed up with. Which would probably lead to some hilarious misunderstandings if I was in Northern Ireland.

Isn't it three times?
Crewe, Walsall and Coventry
Without turning it into another home kit debate it's because from a distance you can't see the red on our shirts.
The upside is that we've beaten all three. On that basis let's hope Barnsley wear the same

Pissed me off at Old Trafford too. TVs in the pub weren't of great quality so I couldn't tell who was who at times. Should have worn green then and you'd think Walsall would wear their away kit too.

....... it's because from a distance you can't see the red on our shirts.

We've got red in our shirts? FFS don't tell Tyler Durden he's feckin confused enough already, thinks we're Northern bloody Island

And given their current run of results... is all I'm saying.

Norn Iron!

Fleetwood. Four.

I was the same, Anthony Martial looked the spitting image of Jay McEveley from a distance.

Did you see the sunlan v West Brom game on motd? That both played in stripes and on the telebox were incredibly hard to distinguish

 

[HillmortonBlade]

I don't mind the current shirt but I saw a couple overtake us on the M1 yesterday evening and my first instinct was that they must be Blades in their red and white striped shirts.... then I realised they were Sunderland fans, and it made me nostalgic for a proper Blades shirt...

And if the bloke in the Merc with the Blades air-freshener is reading this... "Greetings Fellow Blade"
