    The Raith Rovers strip

    Because its quite similar to our home top (even the blue looked green and I'm not colour blind) I found myself on a few occasions supporting Raith Rovers.

    Is it just me getting auld.

    As soon as the game started I thought we were clean through until I realised it was with their defender :)
    It even looked like their mascot was wearing a Hibs home top .

    I screamed for a free kick in the first few minutes when one of our defenders fouled one of their forwards

    There is 100% a clash there.

    I was the same. I was convinced that Fyvie number 8 was coming on in the 2nd half

    Yep, I was in the same boat, wanting the play spread wide even though it was Raith who has the ball.

    The game earlier in the season was worse. Bright sun, pints taken and identical strips. I had no idea what was going on then.

    That was disgraceful (and I was sober)

    Boys behind me were convinced we had lent Raith our home kit to wear, for the opening 25 minutes.

    Raith have a white away kit that they wore against us at Easter Road - why not wear that and ensure no clash with either our home or change kit? Makes it easier on fans and (I presume) commentators and officials!

    Raith should have worn their away kit (don't know what colour that is mind you.... red maybe?). Both our home and away kits clash with their home kit. Could be part of the reason an awful lot of passes were going astray.

    I'm glad it wasn't just me!

    At least you could tell the teams apart so it wasn't really a problem once you adjusted, unlike the farce earlier on this season.

    Not just you getting auld. If they'd had a nippy No 9 on the pitch I'd have been like "C'mon Joe, c'mon Joe ..."

    When I arrived I thought - who is that playing up front? Realised we were in purple and thought - who is that playing up front?
