Notice how all the team are wearing Adidas "Gym" training shoes..the big footwear craze around 1968/70...Probably the world's first proper "training shoe"....

Very similar to these:-

We should get the players wearing these in the team photo if we get the kit. Would be class.

A well made promo but an awful looking kit. Looks like it's from Aldi!

New home kit and red and black striped away kit next year. Seen them both, very nice as you'd expect.

Although red and black stripes means a lot to me I do think that stripes shirts have been difficult to get right ever since the arrival of sponsors names.

If Etihad can appear in some smaller way (as it does on the white sash kit) then I think they may just about make it work, but if it has to go across the middle it may not be right.

They'd also need to get the numbers and names on the back right. Most teams with stripes end up having a large single colour area and it looks a mess.

Worth noting that despite our perception that red/black is a traditional away kit, we've actually worn maroon more often and maroon is our traditional away kit. We've worn maroon for well over a century off and on (mostly on until 1968-69 and at regular intervals since).

In terms of trophy success we've worn:
4 trophy wins - blue (1904, 1937, 1968, 1976)
3 trophy wins red & black (1969, 1970 x 2)
2 maroon (1934, 1956 striped) and as away kit in 1937 & 1968, so could be counted as 4.

i'd love a decent red and black effort but who'd have a piece of this if umbro re-did it?

My favourite kit of all time this beauty.

I'm pretty sure UEFA rules now state that the back of shirts have to be plain in their competitions so that names and numbers can be seen. If that's correct, we'll either have to have a plain black back or a big square patch, both of which would completely ruin the shirt. Unless, of course, we just use it for domestic competitions and use something else in Europe.

Edit: It would appear that I have just made all of that up, so ignore it!!

Right so ...
