TRon Posted July 15, 2023 Share Posted July 15, 2023 So if you look at that, do you think as a player it might be a bit harder to pick out a team mate against all that green than if you were wearing a different colour? Not for your Jonjo passes obviously, where you've got 5 mins to line a pass up, but for a reverse pass where you are relying on peripheral vision?

MrRaspberryJam Posted July 15, 2023 Share Posted July 15, 2023 You’re thinking about it too much. ROI, Ireland rugby, Mexico, Nigeria, Cameroon and Palmeiras all play in green. Saudi Arabia beat the World Champions to be in their green kit in the World Cup. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is fine, none of those have ever won major football tournaments though. And the question about peripheral vision stil stands. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
80 Posted July 16, 2023 Share Posted July 16, 2023 So will there not be a third kit this season ala the blue and gold? Was hoping this green kit would get just occasional special runs out. I'm with Tron on this. Ironically a lot of the fellow green teams getting mentioned are famous underachievers! Any team can beat any team in a one off match, but across a season I'd rather have any tiny advantages on our side rather than against us. Would be better with white socks at least.

What’s winning major trophies got to do with your argument? Irelands rugby team hasn’t won anything major? Nigeria, Senegal and Cameroon all won African cup of nations. fuck knows why I’m even debating this. The strip will get worn a handful of times and that’ll be that. the video you posted shows Miley picking out Turner Cooke absolutely fine.

Each kit has to be used at least 3 times, so I guess it depends on clashes/which ones the owners want to promote more. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elliottman Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 Anyone ever had problems with the name and number printing from the club shop? The little un’s is peeling off after one wash?! Also noticed creases in the number when we got it home. I’ll take it back up but not sure how they fix it?! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

IDK what their policy is, but I would imagine they'd just replace the whole shebang. Although peeling it and re-pressing it wouldn't be the hardest thing in the world to achieve.

MrRaspberryJam Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 Should replace the lot in all honesty. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Decky Posted July 17, 2023 Share Posted July 17, 2023 I've only just seen that the players have different patterns on their away tops when they're playing. I don't remember a team ever having a kit like that? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I should have took it back when I noticed the creases really. But the fact it’s now peeling as well… see what they say. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
