Fjool Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 Looks like 'Ness have the right coloured strip, and Whitedale could do with a change if this report is to be believed. http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/england/wear/7289486.stm The success of football teams wearing red shirts - including Manchester United, Liverpool and Arsenal - is no coincidence, academics have revealed. Scientists at universities in Plymouth and Durham analysed data on all English league clubs since World War II and found home teams in red won more often. Players in yellow or orange shirts had the worst record but performances away from home did not show any differences. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankie Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 Brazil play in yellow. Mind you would England have won the World Cup if they hadn't played in red in the final ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marooned in Maywick Posted March 12, 2008 Report Share Posted March 12, 2008 Every test match in cricket that hasn't been a draw has been won by a team wearing white. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EISTnWAST Posted March 13, 2008 Report Share Posted March 13, 2008 Yellow cars have less accidents, but did you know pink cars have even fewer I'm sure Fjool meant to post this in the irrelevant thread Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fjool Posted March 13, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 13, 2008 ^^ You're right that it would be better elsewhere. I've moved it now. As for the pink/yellow car thing... of course you refer to the fact that there are less cars of these colours on the road. The article doesn't mention how they balanced for this in their 'study'.... are there more teams with red strips? I don't know. Of course it's a nonsense study. I just wonder quite how these kinds of things manage to make national news the whole time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
