If kits clashed then both teams changed. We opted for red shirts. Could you imagine the uproar now? I didn't know this is how a kit clash was decided.

The child in me chuckled as they then have red shirts and blue knickers

Could be worse, Cologne have worn 7 (seven) different shirts this season.

Maybe I shall start playing them on Fifa or something.

These days the "richer" clubs release a 3rd kit.

Spurs' usually wore navy and white striped shirts with their usual shorts and socks in the Edwardian period although red shirts appeared in 1912. There were, however, several occasions when various different shirts were used in FA Cup matches as well as one or two League games.

After the Second World War, Spurs' wore red shirts with their usual navy blue shirts and stockings with white turnovers when a change was needed (occasionally white shorts appeared).

Green shirts should definitely be banned. Was watching an MLS match other night. Pitch was AstroTurf weird green and was raining hard. Could barely see the players as camouflaged with pitch. Interesting that some of Liverpool’s best performances have been in that high vis orange shirt. Defo think that in your peripheral vision it has to be easier to Spot that shirt than a dull grey.

Going through their kit history is like looking at Spurs in a parallel world.

Our first ever kit was red shirts with blue sleeves.

I may be imagining this, but I’m sure I read that Spurs took the colour scheme from PNE in the early days as they were one of the great sides to look up to.
