I am honestly just far too excited about Pep and the football we have in store for us to really care about the kit. I refuse to go in to what will most likely be one of the most exciting periods in citys future moaning about what shade of blue the sleeves on our shirts are or if the away socks match the rest. no chance, no way.

No but I'll donate towards multiple limb amputation, as long as it's done on a budget.

Why are kits getting more expensive each year? It's now £5 more expensive.

I shall work 70 hours/week, raise my young lad with the missus, play football as my ravaged knees allow, manage my admittedly unreasonable excitement for the new season, and bemoan the horrid kits we've been given.
I'm a multitasker and rarely sleep. ;-)
They need to compensate for the huge loss in sales for the kits this year somehow.

We saw it on a ten pack of lager I believe its on the cider too,either buy a pack or ask someone who has to give you the code on the inside of the plastic wrapper and order it from kit bag for £35 the details are on the outside of the wrapper mate
Or ask someone on here to pm you the code on here so you don't have to buy anything ?

Not very keen on away kit.....particularly the yellow badge which looks like it's from the swamp!........however it is not as bad as the training kit which is red and looks just a Scum rag.
If we are going to wear red it should only be on a red and black striped shirt!
Do Nike have any idea about our history and if they don't they should ask!!!!!!!!!!

To be fair, when I used to play, £120 was about the most you'd be spending on a decent pair of boots (Adidas predators, Nike Mercurys etc). Last time I went to get myself some cheap astro's, I was astonished to see the top range Adidas and Nike boots going for £230+. On top of that, they all feel like someone's stitched a bunch of johnnys together.
Maybe I'm just getting to that age when I start moaning about things inevitably getting dearer but I think it's more just an overall reflection of the industry and, similar to iPhones/ Beats by Dre etc, they know people will cough up extra for the flashiest brands.
On that note, I'm sure kits used to be used for longer than one season but, again, looks like they figured out folk are happy enough to spend an increased amount for a poorer quality product which will be obsolete in a shorter space of time.
I'm a cheapskate so my kids will be playing rounders.
