       If both keepers have the same colours and no change the referee
       allows the match to proceed. At the level in question it
       shouldn’t happen and my feeling is that the keeper should not be
       allowed in the penalty area as it would be difficult to tell
       which yellow arm had put the ball in the net.
       An idea for the ruling bodies, and free of charge.

       The frustrating part is that this only seems to happen at the
       professional level, along with unnecessary clashes with
       referees’ kits.  It simply wouldn’t be tolerated further down
       the pyramid.  On the rare occasions a clash is spotted before
       kick-off at lower levels, someone always manages to produce an
       alternative shirt without any drama.  The professional game
       really ought to be better organised than this.
