same here.....I’m colour blind
How bad are you SW3? On the several occasions I've took the 'Ishihara' test,the examiner has been shocked as to the degree of my colour blindness!! I have several male cousins from driffield and surrounding areas who are also colour blind.....Maybe explains why some of them swayed towards Leeds Utd and Liverpool colours:emoticon-0102-bigsm
 
My dad was colour blind so he couldn't become an electrician, so he became an engineer instead, he said even though he couldn't see the actual colours of the wires on engines he 'sort of new the difference' :)
My Dad.... sat all his skippers exams... failed as he couldn't tell red from green.... wonderful man my Dad...

My old man was an electronics engineer...Spent 25 years in the RAF and wanted me to do likewise,no chance with the colour deficiency.

Once employed a kid to pick tomatoes. I said to him “ just pick the red ones and leave the green” . You know where this is going don’t you...

No, that's not the reason.
I best not type it on here incase there's some young 'uns reading (not that I need to explain anyway).

When my dad joined the navy in the war he ended up as a morse operator. He had been sent to train as a gunnery operative but they picked up a slight colour blindness. The test involved picking out colours through pinprick sized holes in a blanket some distance away. As hecsaid not being able to accurately distinguish the colours of small lights miles away would have been somewhat hazardous for someone manning a gun in wartime.
We used to get a friend in bother in art classes who was colour blind when he asked for advice on what paints to use. The art teacher thought he was taking the piss until he found out what the problem was. He has always got girlfriends and now long time partner for advice when shopping for clothes.

Inbreeding in the East Riding shocked!
 
Never mind, back on track,
City will win 5-0, every player will get the highest praise on here and McCann will receive extra high praise for having a plan a,b and c. What a bolt from the green that will be.

I sometimes think a lot of commentators are colour blind when they describe the colours we play in.
