Next seasons home shirt (allegedly)

[urban genie]

The pyjamas we currently sell. And next year we are playing in a blue version ffs.

Nike have supassed themselves on shitness if that kit is true.

it's a shame your taste in women doesn't translate to a taste in football shirts, but never mind, no-one's perfect.

Lol. I've been lucky with women is all.

Do I think Nike could have done better? Yeah.
Should our board have said no to it? Yeah

But it's just for one season and hopefully we will fuck Nike off soon enough. As I say, I don't think it's worth worrying too much over as nothing will change.

And that attitude is why we have shite kits served up to us!

Honestly, next season's 'leaked' design is so poor that we'll probably be outsold by Bournemouth never mind Leicester!

Whereas you being cross about it will make them change it now when it's gone into production.

I know shirt sales aren't the be all and end all, but with FFP we need to maximise kit sales where possible - I can't imagine this kit will sell well.

 

[Andouble]

[Don Karleone]

It's not the be-all and end-all to us fans, but you can bet the club takes more than a passing interest in sales numbers, and there's no chance of improved kit deals if we don't sell shirts!

Fuck Nike. Fuck them.

£12m a year, peanuts, to wear their fucking shite every year, which shits all over our tradition and heritage. Tacky mass produced shit made out of recycled bottles that bears to resemblance to an actual Manchester City kit.

I hope whoever designed that kit, and whoever signed it off from the club without fuss, develops haemorrhoids that turn gangrenous.

Fucking Nike. Can't fucking stand them.

How many it sells doesn't make much difference, only what Nike pay us. I don't believe the club has much influence over the kit, they've sold that control to Nike.
I'm hoping the reason we haven't renegotiated a better deal with Nike is we are looking elsewhere. Don't forget we didn't choose Nike, they took over the Umbro deal when they dumped Umbro. I know we extended the deal at the time which in hindsight may have been a mistake.
I can't remember how long the current deal has to run. Or whether it would be worth breaking the deal as Chelsea have.
