Yes how kit colours look to the eye of fans and to a players wearing it, vision what am I on about, peripheral vision, decision making , a player on the ball hasn't spotted his team mate making a run on his outside because because (maybe not definitely) the kit colour doesn't stand out enough, so picks the wrong option and doesn't make the pass.

There's been studies done on this, and whilst I'd never, ever want to see a red away kit, I still think the shading on the pink is too light.

This one of many, look them up.

When rule 48 says it's ok to broadcast, they'll show "selected" NLS/N games, not all. In practice it's likely it'll be our game each time because to my recollection they always have; presumably because we have a bigger fanbase.
