If it's anything like the lack of success I had in getting information about a seasoncard despite registering the day it came onto the OS, then I'll be bitterly disappointed. Don't understand all this register your details stuff; I know it's for provisional kit sales figures and getting people on the database, but surely they should just show the kit and get a pre-order page to generate the correct number of sales? God forbid it's an awful shirt and half the people registering an interest don't buy it then it could be a wasted effort...saying that, the amount of city shirts I've owned over the years that I never necessarily liked is unreal!

This is quite typical of Football Clubs taking supporters for granted, what other commodity would anyone be expected to purchase without actually seeing a sample.SouthStandStander said:so if pre-order is today, then surely they will release pictures today? am i right, what happened last year?
They know that the majority of fans will buy it no matter what it looks like, and they say they want to be more for the fans.

Leap to conclusions much? Just jump at any opportunity to have a bit of a whine. If you checked out the OS you'd see it's not pre-order but just an email list for updated info.

errrrmmm.....they are not expecting you to purchase without seeing it.... Don't be so melodramatic. ..........all they are doing is giving those who "register" a sneak preview before anyone else.
This is another new form of marketing, the old whisper campaigns similar to last year with celebs & "forum owners" getting sneak previews and building up the product before it hits the market.

They put last years home shirt up for pre-order without showing it us, only thing was we had a leaked picture before the pre-order.
Don't know why they just can't release it for summer, so we can all wear them.

The point is, kids want the new shirt yesterday!!!!. just think city need to look at thisTicket For Schalke said:Vonk's Konk said:They put last years home shirt up for pre-order without showing it us, only thing was we had a leaked picture before the pre-order.

What's wrong with building up suspense & excitement? Teams like Chelsea kill me by playing in the new kit in the last game of the season. Even more so when that was the day they won the title so the kit in which they played the whole of the season won't make the celebration pictures in years to come

I agree about not wearing the new kit for the last game of the seaosn, but people start going on holidays in June, it would be nice to have a new shirt to show off City to the world.
