I can’t really think of any team that has an all black home kit. Is there a rule that prevents clubs from doing this?
Historically refs wear black and even today in non league in England teams can’t wear all black. Clubs are built on history and if they didn’t have all black then, they wouldn’t now.
Birmingham Legion has one.
I Could be wrong, but weren’t all the old ref uniforms all black?
Indeed… hence the chant of “who’s the wanker in the black?” that would ring out from stadiums everywhere.
And now it’s “who’s the wanker with the pen”
“home kit”
Dortmond has a special edition all black kit.
that was a very very nice kit
LOL. I read this and thought, I know of at least one team with all black…
Turns out there are a bunch.
Spurs have had all black before.
Celtic have an all black away kit
“home kit”
Orlando pirate has a black kit
Because for many years referees only wore all black. Many competitions did prohibit wearing black, as it was reserved for the referees. They only started wearing other colours in the 90s.
Hmmm, refs used to wear red when Scotland played in navy.
SJK does
There used to be a rule that said you couldn’t play in black as black was reserved for the referees. It’s why New Zealand play in all white, when they wear all black in most other sports. I believe the rule no longer applies but most home kit colours were established whilst the rule was still in place
Academica de Coimbra, Academico de Viseu to name two portuguese ones.
Great historic club
All the great memories with Bale, Chiellini, Vela, um… Baird?
+1 LAFC wears black for home matches.
yes because they were only formed 9 years ago. refs had to wear all black pre 00s
Also hard for me to find a combo of black shirt and white shorts. The opposite is popular, like for the German national team. But black top white bottom is rare.
AIK in Sweden.
