Frenchie Posted December 3, 2004 Share Posted December 3, 2004 Now, I'll start by saying that I am not a huge soccer fan, but usually enjoy the diversity on colours and patterns of the shirts.I was surpirsed when I saw the highlights from the following game:Am I the only one to think the two teams don't contrast enough.Bear in mind the overview camera with the far angle doesn't give the crispness of this picture on TV. @Frenchie_TO Owner of the Rochester Americans of the MLH Owner of the Toronto Frenchies of the GCFHL6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TFoA Posted December 3, 2004 Share Posted December 3, 2004 Heck naw, knowing me, I'd probably think they're all on the same team out there. How in the world did that occur??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Discrim Posted December 3, 2004 Share Posted December 3, 2004 black and blue vs. purple. yeah, i'd say that's not enough contrast. sort of a darker version of Wisconsin red vs Illinois orange.

MJWalker45 Posted December 3, 2004 Share Posted December 3, 2004 It may have been an issue of the away team bringing the wrong kit. If it was a neutral site they both probably didn't have a second kit for the match and had to play as is. It happens every now and then in rec leagues but then, it's harder to afford 2 or 3 different kits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frenchie Posted December 4, 2004 Author Share Posted December 4, 2004 This is not a rec league, it's the UEFA Cup...I may need to enlist the assistance of a couple of friends who are soccer fans, but I know the match was played in Vieena, and FK Austria Wien is obviously Austrian, which disqualifies the neutral site theory... And they do have a white uniformI bet most European Soccer fans can't understand OUR design concepts for baseball and hockey... @Frenchie_TO Owner of the Rochester Americans of the MLH Owner of the Toronto Frenchies of the GCFHL6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
