Phoenix kit - The Turquoise and Teal Thread
More likely its either the sponsorship or our record being better in red.

If so, I'm all for this sharkhousery.
I'd say it would be for sponsorship reasons until they heatpress over the already heatpressed KPMG on our yellow kit.
This study says you are more likely to get favourable decisions from the ref:

And possibly even some physiological benefits:

The studies also try and link red to certain psychological traits, though not sure how those necessarily link to football - maybe some benefit in a lot of the sports studied such as fighting sports at the olympics.
Not sure how yellow does.
Just got a quick look at the new Phoenix kits for 2021/22.

New design, new sponsors. They look great.
This isn’t it; this is Mossy and Drapes wondering how George got a contract, August 2007.

I want one already!
Got a sneak peek of the new Wellington Phoenix home kit today. Easily the best one of the Paladin era I reckon. Think fans will like it more than last season's. Released on Tuesday, which hopefully means it'll be on Fifa 22 too.

This kit has been brought before by someone. Piney also posted an old photo of their black kit. I wonder if the Nix had a look at this. I would wanna keep the aqua kit though.
Just my opinion of course.
Away kit is phenomenal, as per. Last season's away kit was probably my favourite Nix kit in history, so I'm keen to see how this one looks being worn
The thing I'm happiest about is having a major sponsor on board. That's massive for me. I was a bit worried having the various "low-key" sponsors last year and Domey's callout for the Woman's team sponsorship, that there were slim pickings. But really happy about Spark.
(assuming the leak is right and that it actually IS Spark, i find it odd that home and away have different sponsors?)
I wonder if there is any link between Spark as a sponsor and upcoming TV rights?
Away Kit - WOW
Home kit - Nice, but don't like the stripes cutting out halfway. Looks like a big + sign
Got me feeling rather... cross.
Away kit is good, but not as good as last year.

That's actually not bad, but I just don't think that away strip works with the yellow as much as it does with the turquoise/teal set up.
