......well, If Robins actually believes this, I fully expect to see City play in their hideous yellow citylink away kit in the next home game.....
....then we'll see if it helps, or maybe when baker hits one of "those" balls towards the box, he can also leave a card stating that he tried to deliver, but there was no-one available to receive it....

looking when playing isnt the same as looking at a photo still.......... there is the pace & movement to consider......... hang on though perhaps you have a point
Surely teams in green disappear into the grass .......... could be why we fail to mark them ?
Seriously, I can see your point to a degree but i think the biggest problems in this team would still be the same if you painted all the seats brown.

Only when my mum had put a football sock in with my shirts
I can see the point and the theory but surely we should be amazing away?

I kid you not, I have heard from someone at the club that Robins wants us to look at these. Incorporated into the shirt itself they constantly flash and are obviously easier to spot.
Not sure the FA would allow clearance though.

Maybe in a couple of years all players will be wearing them.

The picture is taken 1 foot off the ground so unless we have a team of dwarves it's irrelevant. There is such a thing a perspective and most people are viewing stuff from at least 5 1/2 feet up so unless your playing all your football five feet from the edge of the pitch the background won't play much of a part. Go and stand in the middle of a football pitch and see what I mean.

How can it be incomparable. Cricketer wearing white runs up against a backdrop of completely white. Can you see him or not? Answer yes you can quite easily unless your totally blind.
The Government should be taking note of this thread as we've quite clearly wasted a shed load of money on stealth technology when a City shirt would have done the job.

You quite clearly are a dwarf if that photo is at eye level.

Oh dear you are clearly a one sport (nearly) kind of guy. Side screens in cricket are white and are used so the bowler can see the ball when it is bowled ie red ball against white ground. When the bowler runs up he is also partially against the white background of the side screen. Its not difficult is it.

Cameras are but clearly not you.
Don't think there is much need for that

SIGHT screen.
Does this mean a sight screen is to allow the ball to be seen against a back drop of spectators?
Ooh interesting

(I thought someone would leap on that a bit quicker but here goes)
Are you sure? A sight screen would indicate being able to see against the background which can't be the case as this sky blue seat thread clearly proves.
Surely thats to sight the ball as the bowler stands out from the outfield ,and batsmen loathe people in the crowd moving around near the Screen

Yes I was just trying to argue the point that the bowler also runs in front of the white sight screen wearing white and following the blue seat logic should be invisible apart from his head and maybe an arm if he's got his sleeved rolled up. It would be like watching David McCallum in the invisible man when he had his rubber mask on. Am I showing my age here?

Next time you get a 100 mph bowl from the invisible man I'll remind you of that.
