Its a nice jersey, better than the home.

Wonder what it would look like with a better make though?

Purple is the color of my college football team, TCU. This kit looks great. It’s also different than any other English kit i’ve seen this year. It can’t look any sillier than those Reading or Blackburn 2nd kits.

Here is a partial list of City kits:

Purple? Some pedigree. Noice the frequency of change over time and how bizarre it’s become.

This is part and parcel of the branding and hype that has taken over football.

God help you all if I took over the club. This nonsense would stop right away. Fir the 1st strip and 2nd strip look to 1884-1924, that’s the inspiration.

It’s crap, it’s gay, it’s cheesy.

There’s no such thing as an “away strip”, it’s the second strip, and is only worn when the 1st strip clashed with the other teams home kit. But not anymore, now anything goes.

Absolute garbage, meaningless pap. WTF does purple have to do with Man City, ever? Why not lime green, fuschia, after all, it’s all about being “different” and “new”.

PURPLE is a damn UGLY colour, have you ever wondered why you don’t see much of it fashion-wise?

City should wear the first strip away, period, and only change it when there is a clash, period.

What’s next, changing the cross of St. George for games in France? Pathetic branding muppets.
