Hull City must find a 3rd kit for their FA Cup replay at newcastle United as both their present kits clash with the Newcastle's black and white home kit.
In September 2008, Hull City followed Premier League procedures fully in the build up to the game against Newcastle in the EPL by registering their second choice strip in advance of this fixture.

With Newcastle United's co-operation, they were able to wear their second choice white shorts and white socks to enable the match officials to distinguish between the two teams.
"We have got a massive problem - we don't have a third-choice strip," admitted manager Phil Brown.
"We can't wear our home kit and we can't wear our away. Hopefully Umbro can come up with something."
