Sadcafe has now got a thread about our potential Puma kit deal.
http://www.redcafe.net/threads/manchester-city-to-sign-a-£50m-a-year-kit-deal-with-puma.434045/
Some interesting responses on it. Some are starting to see the light and see us as a potential threat. Some are typically in denial mode.
Some of the more amusing ones below
'
Was always a matter of time till City started getting these genuine deals. Read somewhere that City kits are the highest selling in kids age groups.
I did not think that simply pumping in money could build a proper club when they started out but it fecking did and fair play to them for the perseverance.'
'They have done it properly.
The Developmental stuff, the brand, the deals to make or buy other clubs as part of the brand, the sponsors. They have shown that it's possible to bridge the gap between anyone and United, providing the money is there.
Stupid fecking kids, buying Citeh shirts.'
'They'll be a big club as long as the Emiratis are there. You go outside Manchester and hardly ever see a City shirt.
I'm lucky enough to travel a lot and you always see United stuff wherever you go. You also get Barca, RM, Chelsea, Arsenal and Liverpool. Nothing else really.'
in answer to the above these were posted
'I live in London and the only kits I see under 8's wearing is City all the fecking time. Its so popular its not even funny.'
'Yeah I see the same in birmingham. Kids everywhere in man city shirts.
All lot of people on here seem to be in denial, they're closing the gap on us very quickly.'
