jerseys quotes

  • It is a good plan, if it can previously be so arranged, to have oneside with striped jerseys of one colour, say red; and the other with another, say blue. This prevents confusion and wild attempts to run after and wrest the ball from your neighbour. I have often seen this done, and the invariable apology'I beg your pardon, I thought you were on the opposite side'.
