I do, and will speak for “the fans” on this matter.Well, this fan does because when I started going to Maine Road in the seventies, we played in sky blue shorts. What you are first exposed to lasts a long time in your memory and in your heart.
You do not know me and you clearly do not know what I think. Please do not ever attempt to speak for me.
What you want to say here is perhaps along the lines of “I don’t like them”. You are not the official mouthpiece for tens, if not hundreds, of thousands of Blues.
There has been a tendency in world football towards teams having the same colour shirts and shorts. Why this should be I have no idea. But it’s there nonetheless.
Times change, I suppose.
I ran a survey on here which over 1000 fans took part in, and the blue shorts were overwhelmingly unpopular.
Of course there is the odd fan here and there like yourself who like them, but very much a tiny minority.
So saying “the fans don’t like blue shorts” is a fact based on overwhelming statistical evidence. But of course you’re entitled to your individual view.
