Don't like the ones with Navy in them.

Really don't want Navy in there. It's not a City colour, not matter what a few blues might say.

It should be in there IMO.

White and Sky Blue, and Black for any text.

Navy absolutely is a City colour. We've had navy socks for more of our history (nearly double the amount of time than sky socks which we've only had for about 40 years) than any other colour. 74 years of our entire club history we've had navy socks and that seems to just be forgotten by the club who never get a kit with navy socks anymore.

The most common kit we've had is:
Shirts- sky blue with white trim
Shorts- white
Socks- navy

That colour combination is unique. Zenit, Lazio, Celta Vigo, Coventry... are all sky-white-sky or sky-sky-sky making us stand out from other sky blue clubs.

That doesn't mean it has to be in the badge of course but it is certainly a City colour.

Sky blue, Navy and White is the future as colours go... It´s the CFG colours I noticed ;D

Great post

Like most, I think that is a stunning badge, but it looks incredibly boring on the shirt compared to the current one.

And the next question has to be if we go back to a retro circular badge does it go back to the middle of the shirt ?

let the football be the interesting bit the badge just needs to look smart, cool and manc, that does the present one is ok but the classic is better, think the fact the retro range sells well has been noticed by the club, also you see lots of the pin badges people wear are the old badge or the shield only ones

Seriously impressed by this ^^^^^^

@Silva_Spell any chance of wacking it on a shirt to see what it looks like?

 

[urban genie]

just got the participation e-mail so lets have a look see what's on offer


Edit, you get a choice of colours, and symbols from the coat of arms and present badge along with an overall design template (round, shield, eagle shape etc)
