City's New Kits - 2019/20

[FantasyIreland]

why would it be on a Marks and Spencer hanger,

Because it's not just any old kit,it's the Champions kit.

Maybe,i imagine he too has far more important things to concern him

I'd like to think how our teams look in the clothes that people will see them 99% of the time should be pretty high on his priority list, especially when bartering with sponsors etc.

And it will.

 

[Sir peace frog]

As long as it's got gold prem badges on it I don't give a fuck

And sorting pep's extra curricular salary.

Or looking for a new manager.

If the purple was more of a maroon colour (which is associated with City) it might have more relevance. Arsenal and Liverpool have gone 80s retro...and they look belting to be fair...what a shame

 

[Rammyblues]

Fucking disgraceful I will not be parting good money for that, in fact, I wouldn't wear it for free.

I can’t quite believe someone at our club signed that off. It’s fine for Puma to produce concepts but that one should have been rejected immediately. It just isn’t aligned to our history... I really don’t blame Puma (or Nike) they will naturally push their templates and other agenda’s but the club needs to set meaningful parameters for kit designers - not sign off any old tat - blue shorts, white socks, stupid buttons, purple etc... they can say no. I don’t give a shit about change kits but we should protect our home kit - it’s part of who we are our identity and those charged with protecting it high up in the club are failing all of us.

Wouldn’t mind it not referencing our history if it didn’t look like utter shite

They couldn’t pay me to wear that.

[waits for cash offers to make him change his mind as the media is right in calling him a money-hungry war criminal]

 

[rnblade]

It’s a NO from me.
I don’t like the purple on a home kit.

 

[blue b4 the moon]

Looks ok-ish at best.

You'd have thought like when Umbro came back Puma for all the money they're spending would have done a proper traditional colours City kit at least for the first year ...big big promo etc. But I guess it's not about us match going fans (some will like it / others buy it 'cos it's City) but it's all about the overseas markets as that's probably where the money is & where the shirt is aimed at.

Last 2 shirt's I bought was the first Umbro one & the black/grey striped one as it was a near to a classic red/black design, had the 2011 cup finals map one in a presentation box & Nike's first as presents.

Won't be buying this one.

They probably have for the anniversary kit, why would they do 2 the same ?

 

[dronefromsector7G]

Fucking shite.

Time will tell the anniversary kit should be a clean ST.Marks kit.

The anniversary kit will be plain so just wait for that.

I just don’t understand why people aren’t getting this.

They weren’t going to bring out two normal kits that looked similar, one being an anniversary one and the other the home kit.

The anniversary one is clearly going to be the more traditional City kit so they needed to do something different for the home kit.

Not for celebrating 125 years of Manchester City it shouldn't, maybe a reference but not a St Marks kit.

What does St Marks have to do with the 125th Anniversary of City?

This isn’t an anniversary of St Marks (of whom’s kit we don’t really know much about - the cross pattee was Gorton AFC, not St Marks)...

This is the 125th anniversary of Manchester City Football Club. A club formed in the colours of sky shirts, white shorts and navy socks.

I think most do actually get that, many just don’t like that we’ll be mostly playing in the **** version of the two.

 

[PragueBlue]

I like it but the proof of the pudding will be in how well it sells. There will be an anniversary kit for those who prefer something more traditional.
