Uhm..... about that dark green jersey again?

The stats are piling up but let's not make it about the current Nike jersey.
It is about the dark green colour, regardless of brand.

I am pretty certain there is something worth looking into.

Lol, could there be any logical explanation? Is it too much like the green grass so players don’t see each other as easily?? Just spitballing

I love those Jerseys but if I may add, the dark green Jersey have never scored a single own goal.

If there is anything in this, it will be down to a logical explanation, one of which could be your theory.
Its something I have been thinking about way before the current Nike kit came about.


If I am not mistaken, many years ago under SAF Man Utd complained about one of their strips and had it changed to a different design/colour for reasons similar to your theory.
Apparently, the players couldn't pick each other out as easily on the field of play.

It’s very possible. Sometimes I watch clips of our WC appearance in 98 and wonder how those players played in those blanket-like jerseys. I mean, those things looked like each player got a 10-yard allocation that could not be reduced. I really think these things matter. Some are obvious...some, like this green jersey issue, maybe not so much.

Tight shirts was for gays back then, only the Lions wore it, and I remember the up-row.

Yeah, the 90s were about baggy clothes...but Nike took it too far with nigeria.

That may well be true, but if for example it is the case that statistically there is a significant drop in performance when wearing dark green, it is only natural to look into possible reasons why, including psychological.

A piece of football history: Leeds Utd FC in the early 60s adopted the all-white strip of the great Real Madrid as part of their rebranding before they began their steady ascent to the pinnacle of the English game shortly after. It was part of a deliberate strategy by their now legendary manager the late Don Revie, who felt their home strip was uninspiring for both players and fans.

I also believe that in rugby, the All-blacks believe their black strip, in addition to the haka, is central to their success as a team over the decades.

There is a pyschological angle to sport which as fans we underestimate or do not even recognise at all.

I think the dark green story is worth investigating if only to make for interesting reading and debate.

You need to open up your mind.
If in the course of your work you do not have to factor in "superstition" (as you put it), as part of your formulation and treatment, then you never start.
"Superstition" in sport is a big factor and affects individual and collective performance.

You only need to look at some of the pre-match 'rituals' some of the world's top players engage in.....Ronaldo, Paul Ince, Ozil, Courtois etc etceteram all have their bizarre beliefs which, in their minds, affect their performance on the field of play.
