On the OS, it says after discussing with the players DW made this decision to wear white.
There are always discussions on here about what bizarre kit change we make at places this season such as Leeds, Fulham & Wycombe

why would the colour matter to ea sports?
Because there could have been an agreement with them that we would wear the away kit should we get to the play-off final? That's probably not the case but if it is then surely we could have had EA Sports printed onto some red shirts? |

I don't understand why the player's would choose to wear white either? Considering our traditional colour is red and our main kit is red, I just don't get that. |

You seem to be the only one with that opinion to be fair. Do you not see that it is a strange decision they have made.
Yes its a strange decision but I dont see any reason to chuck my toys out of the pram. We played in white in 69 because the players thought it was lucky, Arsenal played in Yellow and Blue so we could have played in red if we'd wanted to. I just cant get worked up about this, sorry. People were kicking off about it at Fulham aswell, but the sky didnt fall in, the team played well and 6,000 odd Town fans had a great day out in London. Whats the big deal? |

To be fair in every game we have lost this season we have worn red. Maybe they do see it as a bit of a lucky thing. The blue seems to be the lucky kit but obviously we can't wear that. |

I expect most fans didn't know there was a decision to be made.
Red Vs Blue - in both league games both teams have worn their home kit.
Why should there be a decision now? Clearly there was one to be made but I still don't understand why.
I totally agree with what you're saying, We all expected to be wearing red without even thinking about it. However as the board were obviously open minded about wearing a different kit hence asking the players then surely they should have consulted the fans and asked them? They should have asked the fans not the players in my opinion, Then again they should just have gone with red and not bothered asking the players at all and left it at that. |

I moved away from the PC for a while and busied myself doing other things and tried to come round to the minority's way of thinking and thought back over the last week's events.
At this precise time last week, the majority of us were at the CG getting superbly behind the team wearing red to get a decent score to give us the best chance in the second leg. At around 9.10 pm on Monday night, some of us were then again when it looked like the only place we were going was back down the M4 feeling bloody awful with the season over. However, we all know what happened from there, so maybe we should just count ourselves lucky that we've even got the opportunity to moan about the colour of the kit we'll be playing in at Wembley?
No, hasn't worked. It's still a crap decision and I'm still totally pissed off about it!
