Things that have disappeared from football on 15:04 - Feb 14 by Churchman | Proper black football boots - apart from Alan Ball’s white ones The current multi coloured ballet shoes look a nonsense. |
I have previously thought that the colour of boots should indicate the level of skill the wearer has attained. Somewhat as in some judo ranking systems, a player would start with yellow boots and as they became more proficient work their way through the colours aiming for the coveted black boots. |  |
