Speaking on behalf of the visually challenged I can confirm that it's the shades rather than the absolute colours that matter. City are very light. Chelsea are dark. They are not confusable. The problem starts when you get Newcastle playing Sunderland and one is in red and white stripes and the other black and white. That's impossible.
Commercialism has a lot to answer for. Our first team kit and Derbys are a fantastic contrast for the visually impaired yet when they came to ours recently they played in an all dark kit which was ok but much less good than their first kit would have been. But they've got to shift som kits.......
And it's why I hate the FA cup ball. In terms of shade it's much closer to green (or mud!) than white or yellow so people like me have difficulty seeing it.
Awful clash at Goodison. It's time the authorities clamped down on the needless use of ugly away kits. But of course they won't, because of their plutomania.

Who's going to get confused between these kits?
They wore the same kits about 2 weeks ago for a monday night football game.

Oh, and it's girly.
