City’s New Kits

[Mad Eyed Screamer]

Always bugs me when we don’t play in sky blue when the colours are not as issue.
People would still buy the 2nd/3rd kit whether we play in them once or 8 times a season

Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't it only the rags and Red scouse away where we play in sky blue?
The club will be contracted to wear each away strip a set amount of times.
But it is annoying when say Chelsea or Everton play in their dark blue at our place yet we always play in an away strip at their place

We played in our home kit at both Everton and Chelsea last season. Probably to do with having a full sky blue kit mind.

Nah weve played for example Wolves, West Brom, Arsenal, Watford, Norwich, Newcastle away in sky blue and there’s others too

The third kit is fucking awful.
Still when the first two are mint it's unlikely the kit designer boys will get the third right.

Sky blue is our colour identity as a club. We should always wear that unless we can’t, we should only change our kit if there’s a clash.

I agree with you. But it's marketing, innit?

The plus about us wearing that lovely third kit today (allegedly) is that the Hammers will be rendered helpless, due to them either being blinded by the glare, or because of serious ROFL hysterics.

Very mixed results I see, almost 50/50.

I think it's OK. I was nervous about the second kit when I saw the Palace home kit and hoped we didn't have the same kit sponsor (I don't know who theirs is), but to be honest I think the third is as good as the second. I'd be happy with either. Beats those weird blue kits or that messy white one with the black random strips that the rags wear. And every year I pray we don't get a pink one.

I haven't bought a team shirt for years though, not at those prices. I tend to buy a view t-shirts from the club store instead so they still get my money, but I just can't afford £80 for one shirt.
