Shahanga Posted December 6, 2014 Report Share Posted December 6, 2014 Is there any way of getting the home jersey before Christmas? Want to buy one for myself and the Mrs Santa is your only hope, I hope you're on the nice list Santa or you could wait till we lose 0-5 against roar. There will be a fair chance of a few lying on the ground out the front of AAMI Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cadete Posted December 6, 2014 Report Share Posted December 6, 2014 This whole kit debacle would've been avoided if cfg had decided to keep the red & white as our home kit and worn sky blue away. It would've been popular with our supporters and most likely would have appeased sydney fc. Instead we have an anonymous home kit and an away kit that is rarely seen! It's a bloody joke I dont like the situation as much the next person but the club would say: What debacle? Â Higher Membership Numbers, Higher Attendance Numbers... As far as CFG are concerned they made a calculated gamble on the colour crap and collected even before the Season had begun... Â And considering a lot of us on here even knew this would be the case even prior to the conclusion of last season it be safe to assume the club did as well.

I agree, in the end being a part of an English premier league club the interest was always going to be there. The next hard part is keeping interest and growing on it.

GreenSeater Posted December 10, 2014 Report Share Posted December 10, 2014 I'm sure they'd want to sort out the merchandise though. I mean the low quality of City merchandise makes it really easy to keep wearing Heart gear Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SF33 Posted December 10, 2014 Report Share Posted December 10, 2014 On what basis do people think that it's inevitable that sky blue will become the colour of the home kit, especially in the short term? City tried to do that before this season, the FFA said 'no' pretty emphatically, City's people seemingly shrugged their shoulders and said 'fair enough'. Why do people think that outcome will change in the near future (and especially next year, as some are suggesting)? Sydney will fight tooth and nail to ensure this doesn't happen and if SFC was successful last time, I don't see why the outcome would be any different next time and the time after that.  Are teams even allowed to have three completely different designs - let alone entire colour combinations - on their standard home kit in three years?  I quite liked the home kit when it first came out and I still do. Don't really see what's wrong with it, to be honest, besides the navy blue stripe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because the FFA will eventually realize that they need city more than city need to be here. Once city get their shit together the FFA will do anything to prevent them from walking and I imagine CFG know this and will use it to their full advantage.

strider Posted December 10, 2014 Report Share Posted December 10, 2014 For all the keep red and white talk, 90% of you went out and bought the new City kit. The best way to fight as a consumer is... don't consume. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
n i k o Posted December 10, 2014 Report Share Posted December 10, 2014 FYI everyone the away jerseys can't be purchased at City HQ at the moment, all purchases of the away kit must be online. And they're predicting that there may not be any away jerseys on a sale at the derby due to demand or the possibility that they've brought in limited supplies.

They just rebadged their old kit. What's worse is the crap about the colours and meaning behind the kit that they tried to spin. I knew it was spin but thought ok I'll see where it goes. But after seeing the Sydney game a couple of weeks ago and with us looking the same on the bench and NYCFC kit having no navy in it really has pissed me off. Don't mind if they want sky blue but we have to have some red trim on the kit and no navy. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

perthheart Posted December 11, 2014 Report Share Posted December 11, 2014 It was in the window of a F1 and football memorabilia store on Elizabeth street in the city last night. Will probably pick it up as a kit collector you don't get more interesting than these 'purgatory kits' as Cadete aptly named them. Can go alongside my original 'Celtic hooped' Yeovil kit that everyone lost their shit about when they changed from all green. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
