which badge will it us, the old round one of the current badge

A very quick mock up but something like this???

The maroon shield would look a bit out of place if there weren't more maroon trim on the shirt. Otherwise, that looks pretty nice.

i'll try to refine it or i'm sure someone else will mock up a better version, just wanted to see what the general idea was.<br /><br />-- Mon May 24, 2010 10:55 am --<br /><br />

added trim on the sleeve changed the badge.

Nice one. Although to be picky that colour isn't maroon, it's purple.

Also doesn't the old badge look good...?

For 66 years of Manchester City's history we've had navy or dark blue socks! http://www.historicalkits.co.uk/Manchester_City/Manchester_City.htm

I stand corrected. Not in my lifetime though. Quite like the sky blue and white hooped socks from the 50s from that site. The West Gorton kit looks like what the Jerries wore in Escape To Victory

I always think hopped socks look the best, also like the last season at Maine Road socks light and dark blue!

what ive seen on the picture the shirt is the double of the 1978 home shirt minus the umbro badges on the arm, and wiv a small maroon shield behind the badge similar to the 1950s home shirt, shorts white wiv same badge as shirt, and with a maroon stripe and umbro badge, and socks are navy with maroon tops and white pinstripe.

From that info, came this:

Must say that having read the description I wasn't too hopeful, but now having seen that mock-up I have to say... It looks fucking awful!
Please, please. please be wrong.... No shields around the crest for christ's sake - it looked shit in the 80/90s!
Unless Umbro pull something miraculous out of the bag, this could be the first home shirt in over 20 years that I won't be buying!<br /><br />-- Mon May 24, 2010 10:09 pm --<br /><br />Something more like this...

i like that, but hopefully the maroon stripes will be like the thicker lines down the side (like on this seasons kit)
