Club Colours
Orrell traditionally played in black and amber hooped shirts until they formed their first major technical partnership in 1993 with Nuttalls, seeing them switch to an all-black home kit with yellow, red and white hoops on the arms. The away for that season was a reverse with amber the dominant color. They employed a white version of this kit for their European tours and a red away version for the 1994–1995 season.
They reverted back to black and amber hoop designs with Cica (1995–97) and Halbro (1997–00) before switching to Patrick in the summer of 2000. Their 2001–2005 jerseys were sponsored by JJB and featured amber lines on the sides and sleeves. For the 2006/7 season, the clubs kit was produced by Kooga and sponsored by Bullit Recruitment Solutions. For the 2008-9 season, the club reverted to its original badge and used a low-budget amber and black hooped jersey.

Famous quotes containing the words club and/or colours:
“I spoke at a woman’s club in Philadelphia yesterday and a young lady said to me afterwards, “Well, that sounds very nice, but don’t you think it is better to be the power behind the throne?” I answered that I had not had much experience with thrones, but a woman who has been on a throne, and who is now behind it, seems to prefer to be on the throne.”
—Anna Howard Shaw (1847–1919)
“My faith is the grand drama of my life. I’m a believer, so I sing words of God to those who have no faith. I give bird songs to those who dwell in cities and have never heard them, make rhythms for those who know only military marches or jazz, and paint colours for those who see none.”
—Olivier Messiaen (1908–1992)
