How bizarre. Not keen on that at all. When was the last time we didn't wear the traditional colours in a competitive home game?

That is a great question, used to know the answer

Might be one of the home Euro games back in the 60s, where's John Northcutt when you need him ?

Think we did at home v Aldershot in early 90s in the cup - although technically I think we were the away team and it was a venue swap

[carnage]

Similar when we ground shared with Charlton as well.

[ManInTheIronsMask.]

We wore our away kit in the cup 5th round at home to Sheff Utd in 1968 because it was worn in wins at Burnley and Stoke so was thought lucky. We lost.

On a side note, anyone name the pre season friendly where we played in t-shirts? I'm not making it up.

[West Ham Tom]

I remember us playing in plain black shirts I think at dagenham in 2007
