Bill Posted December 4, 2005 Report Share Posted December 4, 2005 Is this a trick question Pat. Plymouth Argyle......because they play all their games at Home. (Home park) ?? If its not , then i will have to get my thinking cap on. ................................................................ YOU GET YOUR CAP ON FOR THIS ONE. Name me a league team who never play at home. all games are away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeO Posted December 4, 2005 Report Share Posted December 4, 2005 Thought it might be Plymouth simply because they play in green so have no need for alternative kit but it's not..also Yeovil play in green (must be something about the south west), must be a trick of some sort..unless Strangeways sneaked a team into the league while I wasn't paying attention!!

Pat Posted December 4, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2005 Deffo not a trick question...a further clue is that this rarity is in place due to Royal decree...???? That should help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pat Posted December 4, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 4, 2005 We could almost face this team nexts eason...hmmm Then it would be interesting to see if the royal Decree stays in palce..or if the Fa will buk. Bit ruff on merchandising isnt it...like no away kit to flog to the masses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pat Posted December 5, 2005 Author Report Share Posted December 5, 2005 Ha it is a tricky that has adapted over time...After some further research...The team, involved READING wear The House Of WINDSOR"S colours..i,e Blue hoops & white..& were by royal decree exempt form having to lower or change the royal colours. However & as mentioned in prev Post...It seems that the modern game has put a somehwat end to this decree of yester year. Changed due to an empahsis on merchandising & modern day revenues the fact an away kit is a big money spinner..Reading now have I believe a Blue & Silver away kit. So they dont apparently have to wear 1....but....Cha ching!!!...makes sure they do...!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Posted December 5, 2005 Report Share Posted December 5, 2005 nice one Pat, I never knew that. are they nicknamed "The Royals".?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeO Posted December 5, 2005 Report Share Posted December 5, 2005 Wait a minute!! If I may quote from "Wikipedia", the online encyclopedia... There is a persistent urban legend that Reading have the honour of being able to wear their home kit regardless of the opposition and venue. This is, however, completely untrue.

Bill Posted December 5, 2005 Report Share Posted December 5, 2005 Mikeo.. does that encyclopaedia tell you which team never plays at home. That should be a easy one for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeO Posted December 5, 2005 Report Share Posted December 5, 2005 Hmmm...er...well...if you tell me the answer I'll look it up and find out. I, however, am clueless (unless it's something like Berwick Rangers never playing in England, but that's too easy). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
