Away teams playing in their home shirts?

Which team is Hull?

There's about as much red in the Bradford shirt and shorts as there is in the Saints socks. Can you really "easily" see the red in that picture? From far away, and when you're not relying on natural light, it's harder to distinguish colours as they get shadowed easier and so just look "darker" than the white parts. You're basically saying that you have to rely on a tiny part of someone's sock to be able to tell the difference. do you really think that's acceptable practice?

And Rovers don't have a big red band around the shirt. Only on the front. Only the supporters' version does.
You are right in the cases that you can easily distinguish teams when they're setting up a defensive line or whatever, but in broken play when there are players all over the place, it is very difficult to see who is who when the game is going so quickly. You shouldn't have to think twice, especially as a player, and especially if it can so easily be avoided by wearing a completely different coloured kit!

This isn't a kick about on a park pitch. This is the top of the professional game in this country FFS.'"

If one is not able to differentiate which team is which then one might need to have a more regular eye check for corrective purposes, though I never sit THAT far back at any sporting event the camera shot is blurry/out of focus and does not represent what viewing a game through a normal pair of eyes is like. Also it is a static singular moment snap and people with average sight and mental ability will have no trouble knowing who their players are.
I'm sure the referee would be ensuring that teams change kits if he thought it was an issue, that some speccies can't isn't an issue for me because they are in the insignificant minority.
When I played I never had to think twice, why would I? I recognise my own team (it wasn't a kick around on a park btw

) and just because they are SL players makes them no lesser or superior in their cognative abilities to other human beings so it matters not one jot in that respect.
It isn't difficult to see who is who unless you aren't following the game and have come back from the beer tent/bogs, then it takes a few seconds to regather who/what/where.
ATEOTD if it makes you feel better, make a full account & explanation to the RFL to register your viewpoint, you never know it might be meted with a positive response, it can't harm to try can it?
