2016/17 Home Kit Blue Shorts are back

[Shaelumstash]

Agree Shaleum ..... its The key part of our identity ........ not necessarily going to wear it but as a grown man I dont want us llooking like the The Dirt or anyonyone else for that matter...

I want the kit to look like the great teams of the 60s

That's the thing some people don't get - it's about identity. I've never worn a football shirt as a grown man. Not saying there's anything wrong with it, but it's not for me.

The colour of the kit makes up a huge part of our identity.

It's arguably a more important part of our identity than the badge, as it's more visible. Also, we've worn 4 different badges, but only ever worn sky blue shirts (apart from that abomination with the white sleeves.)

Sky blue shirts, white shorts, blue socks. It's so easy to get right I don't understand how they can mess it up so often.

Yeah, those blue shorts absolutely ruined the Aguero moment for me. I like most had been watching shit for 30+ years, but I couldn't celebrate winning the league because of those shorts!!!
My opinion is, it's the shirt that counts. That's what the majority of fans buy anyway. Blue or white shorts doesn't really bother me now!
As the song says, The boys in blue!

Oh good fucking lord...

Not even halfway through this season and folks are ready to organize a march against blue trousers.

Can we worry about Stoke first?

This is bluemoon and you need to get your priorities right

At leAst we will have white in our kits with the White socks.

I would LOVE to get white lettering back to our shirts tho but unlikely to happen now for next season.
Assuming the article is even right tho we will just have to wait and see

Don't try and put words in my mouth mate. We've got the best owners in the world by an absolute mile. I don't think for one minute Sheikh Mansour is making a decision on our shorts!!

It's probably the same hapless marketing execs who designs the City Football Group logo who decided to allow blue shorts.

PROBABLY being the important word. I don't think anyone has the autonomy at our club anymore to make such wide reaching decisions. Everything is done in a considered way - so I think everyone is answerable to SM

In a nutshell mate :)

Why can't they just leave the shorts white! Blue shorts are a big no no for me

Sky shirts
White shorts
Navy socks

74 years of our 121 year history.

Fair enough, change the sock colour, but the shorts? Why? You wouldn't get the Rags wearing red shorts, would you?
