New home kit?

[rickmcfc]

I really like it, think it's very smart. Why is there no official picture on th OS yet they want you to buy it to be delivered on the day of release?

 

[Ticket For Schalke]

Screw you guys, this shirt is nice.

Agreed, I really like it too, familiar yet fresh good job Umbro.

Exactly, we needed a fresh approach as the feedback over last years top was too samey. cant win.

 

[Blue-man chu]

I seem to remember all the bleating & whining at the same stage before our dark blue away kit was revealed & how opinions have since changed on that one! One of my all time favourites.

Dead right! I actually think that it's better than the last one which was better than the one before!<br /><br />-- Thu Jul 14, 2011 9:18 am --<br /><br />

The thing is, people are that impressionable, they'll see five bad commments on the first two pages and all of a sudden it seems every man and his dog hates it. The first time i saw it i thought "ooh that's a bit different" but everytime i take another look i like it more and more, i reckon it'll be one of my fav's!

No Vids from the night?

i know mate!! this place is going downhill rapidly!! lol thought someone would get a sneaky pic of the whole kit and put in on here!!

 

[chase of spades]

Bloody hell!!

I cant believe iv just read one page without anybody slaggin the kit off,some people have been going way OTT aint they?

Another thing i dont get is about the away kit and the amount of shit that gets too!

Every man and his dog moaned about how we should have red and black next season,

'Get red and black back' 'red and black stripes would be awesome' 'red and black like the old one' ........... etc etc etc.........

Umbro listen and produce the red and black kit and yet people moan and say it looks shit !!

AAaagrrrrhhhhhhhh...............

Rant over

Any transfer news yet ; )

 

[Dubai Blue]

'Get red and black back' 'red and black stripes would be awesome' 'red and black like the old one' ........... etc etc etc.........

But I don't remember any quotes saying "Give us red and black stripes with a really fucking weird wide black neck feature, bright yellow sponsor, and Dennis the fucking Menace sleeves" ;-)

 

[Bluemoonbaldboy]

did anyone notice the lad who recorded it say we are recording the fans sing bluemoon and city till i die in thirty years of watching city havnt heard city fans sing city till i die we have real songs

In 30 years???? You haven't been paying much attention then.

agreed it does get sung all the time but does get a decent rendition a few times a season

cos its wank and they are hoping those pre-ordering it havent seen the wank pictures of it.

As for the neck,its just so its different from other teams i would of thought.

"They were good enoug for Colin Bell and they're good enough for me"

"If only we didn't play that damn winning Italian style and went back to the good ol days of bog averageness. I used to go in the 80s you know, we were proper shite then, it was bliss"

Mate, which bit of "I thought Hughes was a shit manager" do you not understand?

 

[adammck]

What the fuck...

Surely a viral marketing tactic from the club to create more buzz about the shirt.

Well the club should have listened to the fans back in 1968. They didn't want red then and I still don't want it now. I HATE red. Red is not City. And trying to be someone else is sad (AC Milan wannabe, Alison!).

 

[m27]

It was one of the funniest things I've seen in a long time though a bit embarassing as he was sat next to me and he was attracting more attention than the Umbro fella on stage.

His rant started the minute he walked through the door and covered topics as varied as 'Mike Doyle should have kicked George Bests head off' through to 'that Liam knobheads suddenly a big blue eh?' . His views on stripey socks and engrained soundwaves were a continuation on that theme.

"Come on Mark. Let's go outside for a smoke"

Possibly my finest hour. Especially as when we got outside Cressa from the Roses was there!

"....and the soundwaves represent...." (MES blows loud raspberry) Absolutely hilarious.

Big blue, Cressa. Used to use my season ticket sometimes as he was a mate of a mate. Was he at the event or just hanging round Oldham street? He used to be as much a part of the furniture there as Afflecks Palace.

Sorry mate, missed this. Cressa was at the do as well. Chatting to him about Reni (the only other Blue in the Roses for those that don't know). Was just glad to hear he's alive!!

 

[Didsbury Dave]

Cressa singlehandedly reintroduced flares to Manchester in the 80s. He was one cool geezer back then. Bet he's not much hair now...

Alan's given me the full SP on the night, sounds a right laugh.

Apart from the dots,the chequered collar, the colour of the logo and the shirts material---it's great!

 

[Colin Barretts bouffant]

Looks sky blue with a white collar ....wait a minute...thats our colours.
