Thanks ET - this is really interesting. In total there are 27 possible kit combinations, and we have used 6 (in 6 games!) already.

Perhaps the aim is to use all these combinations as I can't think of any other rationale for the selections so far.

I recall that our much respected owners said in their campaign speeches that they wanted to sell HRBFC shirts to the world, wanting to see loads of kids in USA wearing them. So, you have three designs and you wear them in different combinations and, with luck, you hope to find someone who sees one and buys it (commercialism) - at least I think that is what is behind it. Or, maybe, with three sets being worn for games they don't need to be laundered so often (having had experience in washing the club kit in time for the next game).

They had better hurry up and decide what colours Hampton are going to play in this season as I want to bring the correct coloured scarf to the home match next week!

Eastbourne - blue shirt, blue shorts, white socks
Chelmsford - white shirt, blue shorts, white socks
Dartford - blue shirt, white shorts, blue socks
Truro - blue shirt, blue shorts, blue socks
Bath - blue shirt, white shorts, red socks
Aveley - red shirt, red shorts, white socks
Farnborough = red shirt, red shorts, red socks

Another combination ticked off. Let's hope after Tuesday our points tally will exceed the numbers of kits used.

All dark blue tonight against Weymouth. Too close a match to the referee in my opinion, especially under these terrible floodlights.

Thought you had put the new bulbs in the floodlights big rich.

The full brightness is obscured by Dowson’s signature across the glass.

That is the ‘home’ kit not the red.
