Bright balls at Birmingham.... 19:05 - Nov 2 with 2709 viewssirporter

Leicester City’s Championship clash against Leeds United will be the first game of the season to use a new ‘high visibility’ winter ball, the EFL have confirmed.

The new ball will be used throughout the winter, with the policy reintroduced to the EFL for the first time since the 2018/19 season. Over the last few seasons, bright match balls have only been used during low visibility or in extreme weather conditions.

But in a change this season, all EFL games will use the Puma Orbita 1 Hi Vis Sky Bet match balls up until mid-February. City’s match against Leeds will be the first to use the new ball with all other EFL games following suit over the weekend.

If anyone is sad like me and wanted to know what it looks like…well I’ve saved you a few seconds of your life so that you don’t have to google it yourself.

Whichever team loses will blame the ball.

I thought the yellow, weren't they pink one year, balls were standard thesedays during "winter", they'd long since dropped the only in low visibility reasoning, at least in the Championship, maybe they were kinder to L2 teams previously not having to have them or something.

Pointless.

They are no easier to see than a white ball. If they are supposed to be more visible in the dark, how do evening matches happen in the start / end of the season?

Not so. Yellow is more effective in low light.

So why aren’t they used for night games at the start / end couple of months of the season?

You're asking me to comment on the decisions of the football association and league? And you're implying the use of the white ball at the start and end of the season is because they are really really good at decisions? Hate to break it to you....

And I had my hopes up that there was finally a male equivalent of the Vajazzle, just in time for the Christmas office party season.
