Umbro? Typical City?

Please!! Not Cheap and plastic umbro. Why can't we just get a brand that will sell us?
Puma and adidas make cheap and tacky shirts. Every adidas shirt, even for the biggest clubs, is identikit and lacking in character. No imagination expended at all.

England shirts by Umbro have been shite to be honest. But who gives a fuck who makes them, as long as the home is sky blue and the away isn't that basterd orange colour ever again.

I love kit designs - I have done ever since I was 4 years old, and me and my dad would make the kits in Deluxe Paint III on the old Amiga :p and I guess thats why I've gone and got a degree in design and all that...
At the end of the day, yes it doesn't matter who makes our kits, but it's always good to have a lush kit to play in, surely? I didn't like the current kits when I first saw them (from a designers point of view) but I now own the away and third shirts, and my dad and bro have the home shirt (I think the home shirt mings).
It's not an important factor what shirt we play in regarding points/games etc, but I would much rather have a really nice replica to wear than some of the generic (Nike/Adidas) kits that we see teams/fans in.
At least LCS have given us unique kits...obviously some are not happy with the designs/colours, but they seem to be the same people that say 'I don't care what brand we have etc etc'
I can't wait for a new kit, the same way I can't wait for the rest of all the other teams kits, the only thing is whether it's worth spending £30/40 on :s

Sorry if it has already been posted, I don't like the look of it at all so i hope they have something different in mind for City's new kit if it is Umbro.

I think that both Nike and Umbro (owned by Nike) kits could be off the menu after we upset Nike by stealing Brian Marwood off them to be our football administrator.. Apparently Nike top brass went apeshit at former employee Cook for setting up the deal!!

Here's hoping, I'm a little shocked that he didn't have some kind of poaching clause, thats fairly standard with American companies(mine was 18 months).

It doesnt matter to me who makes them, they will sell the same number of shirts as any other chosen manufacture. dont tell me you wont buy one cause ther made by Umbro. as long as the design is good then i will still buy one for me and me lado.
