Haha....you got me! I left the "dark red" bit outBigfathoss wrote:Quick bit of research explains that 'the color burgundy is similar to other shades of dark red such as maroon, cordovan, and oxblood, but differs from each of these in subtle ways.' Similar explanation so possibly from the same source? I know not everyone has the same aversion to red kits as I do and that's fair enough. Point taken and understood. But it's red, plain and simple.spirit of 1990 wrote:

Red is a colour at the end of the spectrum next to orange and opposite violet. No mention of maroon in there![]()
Personally, I don't see Burgandy as red, and even if it was it's never bothered me if we had a red third kit, I liked the one in the 90s (still got it somewhere) but it would've been better without V****** Promotions plastered on the front.
And for me, it's nothing to do with any other club's colours when it comes to BAFC.
You are right though, it's three kits and not everyone will like them all - I was never keen on the yellow top but most seem to like them.
