And do you have a link to this? Cheers EDIT: Just seen later posts showing bright red kit. Poor attempt by the machine learning algorithms in that case!

Interestingly enough, you can pretty much deduce (I hope) that this was Colchester away in the FA Cup. The only other goal he scored away from home was at Brizzle, where I think it would have been unlikely for us to wear red. Oooh, I've come over all Sherlock......

I didn't know this was computer produced, it looks very realistic even down to the well used white turning to grey sock tops, the only thing I would debate is the keeper's jersey as I believe FA rules stated the keepers jersey should be green, red, blue or white unless the rule came in after this date. Yellow was only used for international games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should bring back those little flag things with the player's number on to hold their socks up. They were great (said in a Tony the Tiger voice".

What strikes me as odd is I know in 1973 I would still be watching telly in black and white, cue a famous line (borrowed from snooker) “And for those of you watching on black and white televisions, Derby are in blue”. ?

This is so well done, I did wonder if this was a genuine colour photo, and the copies we see in B&W were due to the cost of printing in colour at the time. But in zoom mode there are some giveaways that this is a superb piece of colourisation: The brown suits have a "flatness" of tone compared to the untouched grey ones, and the shoes look a touch different. In that era a brown suit would have had brown shoes with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
