[QUOTE="smartcooky, post: 419693, member: 20605"] I guess my problem with all these alternate strips is that I am an old fashioned traditionalist. I believe teams should always wear their traditional colours and should only change when there is an actual clash of colours, eg. Wales v Tonga, Australia v Romania, France v Italy. And even then, the home team should change e.g. New Zealand in white jerseys v Scotland in NZ; Scotland in all white v New Zealand in Scotland. Instead, we have England in Red & Yellow, or Black or Purple when their traditional colours are Red & White France in a Navy blue when its traditional colour is French Royal Azure Wales in Yellow and/or black when it traditional colours are Red and Green (yes, I know about the Cross of St. David) To me, this all seems wrong. Its nothing more than sham... a market ploy to sell kit, and a lot of people appear to be sucked in by it. [/QUOTE]
