So you saying the club don't listen?
You are talking absolute bollocks in the nicest possible way.
Who said that Gavs designs are the most popular?
How do you know they haven't based the designs similar to Gav?
Have you seen the new badge, to make this assumption?
Have the club not listen to the fans about the Arsenal pricing structure of the Away games?
Did they not act on this by giving it at half price?
Who said that most fans want white shorts?
Haven't we always changed shorts colours through our history?
We are the best run club in England, If not the whole footballing world, yet you call the club for something you can't prove. The club do what is right for Manchester City and us fans. The problem is you can't make everybody happy, I may not like the current badge or the kit choice of colour but that is just tough shit. Im truly not arsed. What ever the badge will be I will warm to it, and it will end up like anything else be part of us and our DNA.
You're not arsed? Good for you. I am arsed.
I'll answer your questions one by one.
Who said that Gavs designs are the most popular?
The people who have posted on the badge threads over the last 3 years. If you don't believe me, feel free to go through the tens of thousands of posts.
How do you know they haven't based the designs similar to Gav?
Because Gav's popular designs were clean, simple and contained only a couple of elements. The shield, the ship and the 3 rivers. The club have already said there will be ship, 3 rivers, rose and 1894, so already it's impossible for it to be clean and simple like Gav's design. However good the design is, it's going to be busy and cluttered, and there was absolutely no appetite for that, in fact, quite the opposite.
Have you seen the new badge, to make this assumption?
No, but I have seen the elements that are included.
Have the club not listen to the fans about the Arsenal pricing structure of the Away games?
What has that got to do with the identity of the club,which was my grievance point?
Did they not act on this by giving it at half price?
See above.
Who said that most fans want white shorts?
Again, the overwhelming majority of fans who have posted on the kit and shorts threads over the years. You've already said you're not arsed, so perhaps you haven't kept up to date with those threads. Well I have, and I assure you that white shorts are overwhelmingly popular, feel free to trawl through the threads.
Haven't we always changed shorts colours through our history?
No. We had a short period in the late 70s where Umbro decided to change the colour of the shorts and Peter Swales let them. That's not my view, that's backed up by the club historian. And then in recent years the executives of the club have allowed the manufacturer do whatever they please with our colours. It doesn't happen at The Shite, doesn't happen at Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea, but liddle ol ciddy, oh yeh, let the designers do whatever they want, fuck the fans.
