[Football] Away kits

[BN9 BHA]

I wasn’t impressed with the colour of the Leeds away kit today, from the WSU it wasn’t easy to follow the match.
Surely an away kit should be a totally different colour from the home team, I’m not actually sure what colour Leeds away kit is but it looked light blue from the WSU.
What happened to the biggest team in the world having a yellow away kit?

Apologies if this has been mentioned on the match day thread.

Weren’t they a very pale lavender sort of colour?

Don’t know, I haven’t got my Farrow and Ball paint colour chart to hand.

It was the colour of these

The radio commentary remarked on that . Warren Aspinall said that their first colours are white, the second one is blue so that was the third. A poor choice though.

I'm surprised they were allowed to wear that, but their other choices would have been worse IMO, all white home kit or a dark blue away kit.

It was frustrating to watch. Surely a white Leeds kit would have been easier to distinguish between the two teams. Quite a few times I got confused who was who, especially round the box.

I struggled to tell the kits apart on TV.

Yellow.

It should be law. For both teams

That'll teach them to put the white kit in the wash with the blue kit

I’m sure they do it on purpose, like the way Chelsea always play City with blue on blue.

Get social going, get some clicks and a marketing drive.

A third kit should be a totally different option to the home and away. Pathetic.

Man City have a home kit that is sky blue, away is white with sky blue trim and third is dark blue.

Right?

Just seen this on Twitter, some funny replies saying “ Why didn’t Brighton wear their away kit? “

I can recall us playing a game up at Leicester a few years back where they played in their traditional blue home kit and we were wearing their yellow away kit.

IIRC something to do with our kit man picking up the wrong laundry bag as he left for the game.

And didn't Adams says afterwards that some Brighton players were't fit to wear the shirt? Something like that anyway.

I have seen similar comments elsewhere, but just don't understand them, I had no difficulty seeing the colour difference either at the ground or why watching the recording of the game at home.

If there was an issue, then the referee would have stepped in before the game started.

Eye tests for all on Monday.

Maybe you have some sort of super eyesight

Light purple, apparently.

There were some misplaced passes, particularly from Leeds in the first half, that I thought might have been due to the colour clash.

From the stands there were moments when it wasn't always easy to distinguish between the teams and I suspect it was the same for the players at times.

My eyesite is OK, pretty good for a 52-year-old anyway.
