City’s New Kits

[bluemoon32]

Very large Irish population in Manchester (bigger than in Liverpool) many city fans had affinity with celtic or hibbies in the catholics schools and community of Manchester and in my school in gorton in the 80s there were as many blues as reds

I understand that but back in the 80's there's no way i could offer support to a club who's fans sang songs about the fucking I.R.A

I never had one but saw them about, scottish football has never interested me and I am not Irish so celtic were of no interest

What the fuck has this green hoop shit got to do with Manchester City?

Horrific.

The Manchester bee, supposedly. They used that with the honeycomb away kit a couple seasons ago, so maybe mosaics will return next year

You’ll have to forgive my ignorance if I’m missing something here, but I don’t see any relation between that shirt and the Manchester Bee.

It looks like something that Portsmouth or some other poxy team would have worn in the 1990s. As a general rule I always think these bright, luminous kits look very cheap.

Prefer it to the 2nd strip if honest

I cant stand the 2nd strip either but that's some statement you've made there:)

 

[dublinblue12]

Think the luminous kits/ wierd coloured or patterned kits are a big hit with kids and maybe Teenagers, who are probably more the target market, every club seems to have one these days

 

[dublinblue12]

i quite like it!

I do too, looks great

What’s the best DH Gate site please? I know somebody posted a few links on here but can remember which page? I’m looking for kits for the kids. Also what’s the advice on size? Are they pretty much the same size or is it a case of a size up or down? Any advice would be appreciated. Cheers

Sizewise I've got the largest kids (28) size for a tall 10 year old which fit perfect, bit of room for growth, hope this helps

 

[jazzy]

I don't mind it tbh , prefer it to the away

 

[hilts]

Is the bee dying, sea sick or has it flown into a tin of Crown Apple shades gloss paint?

To the cringe thread

 

[deano ou812]

Awful that third kit,although one of my lads thinks it’s class ffs..

To the cringe thread

You may not like it but it's a very clever move by City to put it on Roblox.

Roblox is one of the most played video games in the world, millions play it and it's huge exposure for the club.

In fact my son is playing the Blue moon City game on Roblox now and he's loving it

My pal works at city in kit/design/marketing dept. He said third kit is very much designed and aimed at kids. FOCs like us arent the target market

We used a bright/luminous kit in the 90’s

 

[Lost in space]

Third kit just looks like a Reading away kit

I can like it as a marketing tool for the target audience and still find it's cringe value in it's obvious lack of appeal to anyone not in school.

The replies to this and on other social media are funny

Fair enough.

I wouldn't be surprised if this was one of our best selling kits
