Viewers were left perplexed by a clash of kits as St Mirren take on Celtic with the Hoops' light grey shirt difficult to distinguish between Saints' black and white. Ange Postecoglou 's team are in Paisley looking to maintain their 100 per cent Premiership start after last week's games were postponed following the Queen's death. As the early Sunday kick-off, it was shown live on Sky Sports and thousands tuned in to watch the penultimate SPFL game before the international break.
A curious kit decision though saw Celtic ditch both their green and white home kit and their black pinstriped away kit for a light grey third kit with black shorts. On TV screens, that clashed with Saints, who wore their usual black and white stripes and black shorts which were indistinguishable from the visitors.
One viewer branded the game "unwatchable" as a result, saying: "The St Mirren v Celtic game is almighty unwatchable due to the clash in strips. Who sanctioned this?"
Sky Sports' Allison Conroy tweeted: "This strip combo is hurting my head."
One fan added: "These strips are too similar. Do Celtic not have an all green one or a yellow one? Actually can't believe the ref is happy with this. Ridiculous." And another tweeted: "Who decided these strips would be a good idea?"
