    Strip for Saturday

    Apologies if already covered,but anyone know what strip we will be wearing on Saturday?

    I hope it's the HSL yellow one.
    Just seems we play better when we are wearing that !

    I was just thinking about this very thing earlier. I'd like us to wear the yellow one for the same reason.

    No idea what strip we'll be using, but I do think that sometimes the little things matter.

    When playing football I've always found it easier when my team are wearing a brightly coloured, highly contrasting strip. Just makes those passes on the peripheral and first time balls easier to get right. It can't hurt, even at professional level. Especially if the weather isn't great.

    St Johnstone are the home team, so presume they'll play in their home kit

    Both teams should be in their home kit. There is no colour clash.

    We played in green away to them earlier in the season so I assume that is what we will go with.

    Agreed, green and white will always do for me.

    I think the yellow strip is hideous.

    Green body, white sleeves, white shorts, green socks. Absolute classic and no need to stray from that v a team who play in blue! Yes I am an old traditionalist

    Green versus Blue. No need to change strip

    Unless the ref is blue/green colour blind!

    EDIT: but if he is and he has always seen blue as green and green as blue then what he knows to be blue is actually green to the rest of us and what he knows as green is actually blue to the rest of us so it shouldn't make any difference. Confused.com? Maybe both teams should change just to be safe.

    When I saw the title of this thread "strip for Saturday" I thought it was HSL's latest fund raiser.

    Im currently sat in my front room in my Calvin Klein bawbags typing this message.

    Green and white. Always.

    It would've been weird watching us win the Scottish Cup in that purple kit.

    Our first two results in the yellow HSL strip were really bad if my memory serves me, only very recently that we've had a result or two in it.

    The HSL one would be a nice touch given the campaign, but always love to see us line up in green and white, personally.

    When we played Raith rovers away a few seasons ago with the bottle green strip, they were in blue with white partial sleeves. I was struggling to make out who was who. Maybe just my auld eyes

    I think that's a fair enough comment, as a lot of people said that at the time. I think in general, though, a blue strip doesn't clash with Hibs' home shirt.


    Imagine being someone that had blue/green colour blindness in the days before strict segregation and trying to go in the right end at an Old Firm game....

    I was the same, I can tell them apart but there wasn't a massive difference.

    The colour blind association has been complaining in England about teams playing in green and blue or red and green . But I think a cup semi we should be in green and white.

    wasn’t it a thing once that teams had to be light or dark so there wasn’t a confusion on B&W tv?

    Never thought of that when I posted it !

    I am a traditionalist and I don't think there is a strip anywhere in the world that comes near our strip.
    However, football players and managers/coaches do seem be at times a tad superstitious and they sometimes have a "lucky" strip or "lucky" bawbags or coming out the tunnel last etc.

    I just hope when they pull the strip on they feel like a winner.

    Unlike the stupid colour clash between Liverpool and Manchester United the other day.
