Ive always noticed with a lot of their pitch side photos of the crowd, theres always a large amount of them wearing blue..and even royal blue jackets, jumpers etc. Cant imagine any Blue I know going the match in red (or indeed anywhere really). Vintage RS lack of self awareness/respect and a variety of their other taboos...its an ever growing list

Think it's a tacit acknowledgement to the SENIOR club in the city that without us they might never have existed. And, anyway, who would want to wear red anything in particular a non-football related garment.

‘What is a pretender? What is an imposter?’ – A pretender has a blood claim to the throne as good or better than his supplanter;

an imposter is just that. In England and Scotland there were numerous successful and unsuccessful pretenders from the 13th to the 18th century. Henry VII was a pretender before Bosworth, and Charles II before the Restoration. Edward IV was briefly a pretender in the aftermath of his father’s death at the end of 1460; having been dethroned in 1470 he had to fight for his crown a second time. Henry VII’s security was then threatened by the imposters ...Lambert Simnel and Perkin Warbeck - both kopites

Get up-to-date on the latest research by Philippa Langley on the 'Princes in the tower'. Was one of them an impoter, or the real deal. That usurper Henry VII was never going to accept that one was actually the son of Edward IV, as he would then have had to step down. His propaganda machine therefore worked perfectly in not accepting that at least one of the sons had survived, and that anti-Richard III propaganda continued into his son's reign and beyond, with the likes of Thomas More, and later Shakespeare (really Edward de Vere, 17th Earl of Oxford. Was a hick from middle England educated to such a degree that he could write voluminously about things in a complete range of other countries, and about the reigns of so many other English monarchs? Don't think so. de Vere could, he had the complete background to such things. Shakespeare was just a front for de Vere's writings).
