Well, I know that the colors of the clubs are taken by Joan Gamper from FC Basel ( as it says here, also ) but still, FC Basel is Red and Blue while Barcelona is sensibly different, using Blau & Grana not Blau & Red.
Grana is more maroon than red, you are right. However i think its undeniable that gamper got the club colours from fc basel. Do you disagree with that?
No, I never did. I just always wondered how or when the change came Basel's red and sensibly lighter blue to Blaugrana :2145960713mundoemot .
Maybe he just didn't want to copy/paste the colors but he surely did a good job changing them in a IMO way better combination.
I agree. Although perhaps if we had basel's colours and they had ours we would be saying the same thing. We are so used to seeing the fcb colours that we will always say they are the best!
Just a note: in accordance with the statutes, St.Jordi Cross have a Pantone 186;
Catalan Flag have pantone 186 and pantone 109; FCB colors (above) have pantone 208 and pantone "Reflex Blue"; the ball have pantone 117; the yellow of all the emblem is Pantone 117.
