resk Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 back in my days as match secretary for a tinpot East of Scotland League club you used to phone your opponent's secretary on a Thursday night and agree which kits would be worn and then phone the referee and inform him of the kits that would be worn. If the ref had a problem with the kits it could be sorted beforehand (and was on one or two occasions, usually involving sock colours). With similar colours have Aberdeen played in red against Hearts in maroon or Arbroath in maroon against Brechin in red recently? I don't remember ever seeing Dons v Hearts when both teams were in their current (we changed from black and gold to red in the 1940s) home colours. Same for Dons v Dundee United which also now appears to be considered a clash, although I've seen pictures of red v tangerine in the 70s/80s. We also normally have to change against Motherwell but that seems to be dependent on the whims of the ref, how much claret they have in their kit that season, and how much marketing of their away kit either club is doing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We played in our home strip away to Dundee yesterday, both technically blue. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't recall seeing Hearts and Aberdeen lining up against each other in home kits either, but it wouldn't surprise me to learn it happened regularly in the past. I'm pretty certain that Dundee United and Aberdeen often wore their regular kits frequently in fixtures between the two, when the sides were dominant. There seems to be little consistency. For instance, we've occasionally seen no changes when playing Dundee, but usually there is. Similarly, you often now see goalkeepers or even officials wearing kits that could constitute a clash. Of course the question being screamed by yesterday's events, is why the Hell didn't Dumbarton just take their regular colours with them? There would then have been no possibility of a problem. The tendency of clubs to change needlessly, plays a part in all this. Edited December 30, 2018 by Monkey Tennis 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedRob72 Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 This belongs here Do they use the same design agency as the Green & Grey Brigade. The intricate detail captured in the format they’ve used; of hue, contrast and font are remarkably similar. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
microdave Posted December 30, 2018 Share Posted December 30, 2018 Isn't this your second kit man's first error of the season?Yesterday was the first kitman's last game. Typical last day in the job not giving a f**k attitude! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is however equally poor that stenny refused to play in their change kit 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
