J. A. Holt is infamous around these parts
Default lilac, pink, lime green, yuk!

Have I missed something? I’ve been out of the UK for over 2 years, so forgive my ignorance. When I left, football was played on grass (i.e green). Teams had kits that were mainly primary colours, plus white and black. FM2007 reflected that and had a good, authentic feel to it.
I just had FM2008 delivered. What has happened? Do Arsenal now play in pink? Have Celtic swapped their green hoops for a more delicate lime green? And who plays in soft lilac? Is it Man U? Oh, it’s so confusing.
I may wake up soon and then I’ll know I’ve just had a bad dream. But, in case it’s all real, can SI tell me who cobbled together (sorry, the word designed is a bit strong) the main menu. Is it the designer of my Sim ToyTown?
I really want to get into 2008, but I can’t get over the um …feel of the game. It’s not just wrong, it’s worse. It’s grotesque in a pretty pastel way. Who is this game aimed at? Is it me? If so, why isn’t there a hazard warning on the box about pastel colours? Where does it say you need a sick bag?
Is there a patch coming out soon? Can it be made to look like 2007? Then I may play it. Until then, it stays in it’s box because I can’t take it seriously, even though it might be a good game.

There has been complaints regarding the brightness and amount of "whiteness" in the game.

As for Man U Kit being lilac, Arsenal in pink etc.. I have not had that problem and haven't really seen anyone else mention it. I would suggest it is more of a problem with your monitor settings. If you really don't like the default skin and graphics then I suggest you visit the Graphics and Skinning Forum and look for something to improve the situation.

You can probably get different skins for the game to make it look how you want - see Graphics forum for more info

could happen. under special conditions, a certain type algea could impact the colour of grass.

of course, that would require strong wind blowing in from the north sea, mixed with CO2 released from oil rigs and a small percentage of shetland pony faeces.

Why has everyone suddenly started taking acid?

I would hazard a guess that your monitor has gone t*ts up.
