Looked all right to me but the protective net was making vision difficult anyway.Quote:

Grey and white were too similar.
Another stupid decision by someone.
The ref has to sign the proposed strips off midweek.
Not sure how he agreed to that.
Makes you wonder why we have a purple kit when it wasn’t used today.Quote:

This happens a lot - kind of defeats the purpose of a change strip when it looks more like the other teams kit than your normal one. Lack of professionalism on someone's part.
The very thing that this is a discussion tells you all ya need to know. Should never ever happen at the top level of Scottish football.
I saw a few people mention a kit clash on the match thread today but I must be honest I didn't see anything wrong myself. One was grey and the other was red and white.Quote:

I`m a bit colour blind with reds, so when the play was up the other end the players just all blended into one making the game an even duller spectacle than it actually was for me.
Yeah, white against grey was madness and made for a difficult watch especially in the second half for us poor sods stuck behind the goals. I hate watching from there at the best of times but today was uber pish.Quote:

At the game it was definately an issue. Hamiltons plain white against our grey was a ludicrous decision by someone.
They didn’t have plain white, other than the back of the strip which meant it was fine if the players were facing you 😂Quote:
