Re: shirt colours
This is a long way from the colour red. Anyone know why red? I'd assumed that white was chosen by quite a few ancient clubs because it was a cheap material from which to make shirts. But then there were a surprising number of early clubs that had stripes, so that blows that theory. Other than it was occasionally the colour of the Hyndburn (aka River Stink) when the dye works was in full swing, is there a reason why Th'Owd Reds chose that hue?
