A few years back I was involved in a team and we wrote to the upcoming opponents and told them we would be wearing a certain colour socks for our home game and told them because we knew their normal kit had the same colour. They were thankful and brought a different colour to the game. It was so simple.

    The (I think?) universal rule is the away team has to supply an alternate shirt & socks - whilst shorts are technically allowed to clash.

    It's a disgrace for an away team not to be prepared in general IMO.

    Last year in ZL2 Uni travelled to Westlakes and their white/navy setup was pretty similar to Westlakes mostly white kit. Reserves played, and IMO clashed, but for firsts we at Westlakes took it upon ourselves to wear our orange away shirt to reduce confusion. I think a few years back Garden Suburb gave Westlakes their away kit for a game at Gardo because Westlakes weren't prepared for their clash too? So it makes sense that the home team can, and sometimes do, save the day but that's not their job on a day where they already have a tonne of things going on.

    I asked a ref a few weeks back about a visiting team wearing the same white socks as the home and their answer was "it's not meant to happen but they don't have alternatives". It's just not good enough IMO.

    Probably 4-5 years back I was at a NNSW/Zone meeting and they said at the start of the season they would get every team to submit to them the colours of their home & away shirts, shorts, socks and that information would be distributed to all the clubs. Did/does this happen? If for example Cardiff went from all orange to orange & white stripes with white being pretty predominant colour, or say going from orange socks to white socks, are all clubs aware of this before game day? And just say that two teams main kits clash, but then using the information supplied to the Federation shows the away teams 2nd kit would clash, what is the go here? Say a team has black & white stripes, and the away team has a home white, and away black, kit, for eg. That would flag up as an issue at the start of the season and the teams can work around that however which way.

    For any ultimate frisbee nerdz out there, if you go to play ultimate anywhere the common rule is you bring a "dark" kit and a "light" kit. Light is almost always white, and dark is basically any colour. It's the black/white combo kits that are the killer. But IMO every football club should have a predominately dark kit, and a predominately light kit, and bring what is needed to whichever away game they are going to.

    The kit is his life man

    PS Hey Premy, ask your old boy when Cardiff left 1st div and when Sth Cardiff started. Some websites have them mixed up.

Our alternate strip is navy blue which is close to black as well. I think it lacks class to say what isn't true and then to say stupid comments like this. Wonder why nobody from our club usually comments on here. it's pretty poor
    You'll see I'm taking the piss as I do with most of my comments on here. Don't get too precious about it...

    I'll change my comment then.

    Probably allows for people who finish work at 5 and have to travel 30 minutes or more from Swansea to Cardiff. I guess it could be 15 or 30 minutes earlier, but that's my guess. Or the ground might be used for something before then..
    It's football, not s***er!!

    Spot on Lofty.
    Both teams agreed on the time as we both have players that work late.
