    Easter road imo would look class if it had purple seats scattered around the ground.
    Not for me. Hibernian are extremely proudly Green and White. Other than that we should also celebrate sky blue and white for our host country of Scotland. Purple's an elitist ruling dictator colour.

    Would you like us to have maroon seats dotted around the stadium as 'its just a colour'.

    Colour's are important to football clubs.

    That's just a silly comparison no one would want that because of a football reason, not a non football mental one

    Silly?

    I gave a valid reason for not wanting purple in my opinion. Its you who stated your random love for 'purple' seats to be dotted around the stadium not me.

    Its Green and White for me not purple.

    Purple, while not one of our primary colours, is still a colour we can relate to as Hibs fans. Used multiple times for strips etc. Comparing that to maroon is a tad mental.

    I've never related purple as being a hibs fan. Its Green and White for me. No likey purple. How hard is that to understand? My opinion - imo.

    I'm not a Real Madrid supporter so will not. I'm a Hibernian Supporter who does not like the colour purple due to it being an empirical ruler dictator colour. I take it many disagree with me. Who would have known?

    I think purple was limited in use as it was extremely expensive dye, not necessarily the de facto choice of empirical ruler dictators, but because they could afford it. I reckon it’s probably been cheap to mass produce since before Hibs were formed so see no reason why we shouldn’t use it.

    However, it’s ultimately a matter of preference as to what colour folk like, no more no less.

    Actually in Scotland at least, as far back as the 1600s, purple was one of the most popular colours of the very lowest classes. This was due to it being the easiest/cheapest dye to produce.

    (The only reason I know this is because of a source analysis I had to do for an Early Modern Scotland exam at uni)

    Actually the opposite. Purple was the most difficult to manufacture therefore seen as the ruling classes colour. Elitist empire.

    😂😂😂

    That is exactly the first thing I think of when Hibs release a purple top, or when I got purple added into my Hibs tattoo. Hibs in purple, what a bunch of elitist, highfalutin show offs. While I’m at it my eyes for some reason burn whenever I look at the old crown badge. We should really get shot of they purple swastikas aswell

    Yes of course, we should remember that next time we ask for a colour of kit as a group of football fans.
