Come on City make this happen.
And to all those going on about Blue Shorts? would Liverpool fans be happy if they didn't have Red Shorts, would Rags be happy if they played in all Red? Answers are no and no. So why should City fans not be upset when they can't see the team play in the traditional Sky Blue and White?
Since 1976 we have worn blue shorts 11 seasons. It's not like they just did this for the heck of it. If you like the blue shorts or not that's one thing, but to say they aren't a part of our history is you choosing to ignore some of the facts.
Point is blue shorts are not something many of us typify with Manchester City, and although we have had them, it's not being ignorant to suggest that many of us don't like to see the club wearing them and as Blues we will voice this.
I understand there are some who grew up knowing City wearing sky blue shirt/shorts, and they are as equally able to voice their appreciation of them, but there is one thing that unifies us; not once have i heard a City fan who LIKES the sky blue shorts suggest we drop the white shorts completely and change to an all sky blue strip.
True, I would never want to get rid of white shorts, but every 4 or 5 years I don't mind it. Having some background in design I can see why they opted for blue shorts this year. White would have made it just too much going on.
