Interesting interaction with my brother yesterday. He is player for an intermediate club and he was pictured in the local paper putting a tackle on an opponent. I noticed a black section on his orange socks (which were part of an all orange kit).
I gave him a bit of stick about using the wrong colour sock tape and being pictured in the paper to which he replied, 'its not sock tape, they're Nike bands.'
I've never heard of this and it made me wonder how I would approach it if I had to make a decision on match day. Is this a spurious attempt to circumvent the sock tape law? Anyone else experienced this?
