Goalie Strip Question

[Findlayhibby]

It was Newhoose who pointed this out to me.Macey's all black strip is very similar to that Masonic bastard with the whistle.Something else Beaton didn't notice.I'v e just noticed that wasn't a question but a statement.So should Beaton have made him change it?

 

[Hammi]

No

 

[Doc Shrink]

I don’t think Beaton would have been confused with Macey.
Although Macey and Mason sound a bit similar.

Funny I said at the game that the two strips clashed a bit yesterday to, with the dark tops, white shorts and dark socks.

On another note, I would always have my keeper in bright, even garish colours. Increases presence and visibility. Black is a no-no.

Surely even a scottish ref couldn't confuse a goalkeeper with himself

Arguably, the greatest goalie of them all, Lev Yashin, famously wore all black and was known as the 'Black Panther'.

Thank god it wasn't one of the twatty pink and suchlike kits of today or he'd have been known as the Pink Panther.

Perhaps one of the most awe-inspiring sports teams of all-time are the New Zealand All Blacks. I don't think anyone could accuse them of lacking presence.

Though that's not what I'm getting at. I want the keeper to be seen by the striker. Bigger and brighter the better. Actually quite like pink. Draw the line at orange though.

Aye but being a hibs player , you see a black sock out of the corner of your eye you pass back to Beaton instead of Macey?

a wee bit unlikely when you think about it though

But (ok I don't have the rule book next to me) going by the rules, he should have made Macey change his strip?

[Forzahibs]

Yes.'Each goalkeeper should wear equipment which distinguishes him from both the outfield players and match officials'.

right , seems strange then

I thought @moathibby was wanting the goalie to strip

 

[Hammi]

Official should've come in his yellow or red kit then.

Cliff mentioned it in the commentary.
Can mind Dallas making Jim Leighton change his top as Dens and if memory serves me old bandy legs had to wear
a Dundee keepers kit

Probably didn’t even notice perhaps he’s colour blind as well as blind…although if you’re blind in the first place it probably wouldn’t matter if you were colour blind as well.
