Would be great PR for City if we could produce a reversible shirt. Home one side, away the other. 

Although, of course, commercially it wouldn't make sense.

I wonder if any club has ever done this?

Didn’t England do similar a few years back with Red away shirt one side and Navy blue shirt other side?

I missed (or more likely forgotten) about that. Plus it looks like others have tried this before...

Short History of Reversible Soccer Jerseys – Soccer365

 

I think this would be a brilliant selling point for the away kit. Instead of having a third kit that is used once, maybe twice, have a reversible one. People can choose which side/colour they want or prefer. I think the income lost from selling 3rd kits, would be made back by those that saw the better value in 2 looks and getting one they may not have.

In local football can remember a few occasions when the away team turned up with a shirt clash and no alternative kit. The only option was to turn one set of shirts inside out (where inside was different than outside, of course!)

Yes!   I have one, it's packed away somewhere and I can't remember who the maker was, possibly Umbro.

Is that middle of the road? Personally I'd go more of a ditch....

Don't think it was a 3rd kit, more of a casual "down the pub rather than wearing a football shirt" shirt. 

Is this the one?

This has gone down like a lead balloon, sponsored by a betting company not approved by UK regulation, finances potentially questionable and their choice of Instagram advertising is well..... questionable

Blimey - just had a look, someone wants to watch Norwich's whole well-run family/community club reputation burn.

I'm not at all militant about gambling sponsors but this one is stretching legitimacy to its limits - an Asian casino with the flimsiest of regulation, a Twitter feed with 50 followers at the time of announcement, an Instagram feed of barely legal Asian girls in sexualised poses, videos of them simulating sex acts, and (apparently) links to hardcore porn.

And John Terry has been their worldwide ambassador for several years! I know money talks but you would have a very hard time knowing where this money came from, it could quite easily be illegal. They're supposedly based in Malta but that is just the tech - nothing like Dunder who at least regulated in the UK and had legitimate people behind them.

Am I right in guessing that's sponsored by Ed Sheeran's tour?

Yeah Ed Sheeran is sponsoring them, been an Ipswich fan since he was a kid, then in that using the space to advrtstise his tour as you say looks like

A mate of mine has gone mad, the images they have used to advertise previously, were bad enough that  they felt they had to apologise. My mate has a young daughter and apparently Norwich have one of the highest percentage of female fans, so images like below didn't go well with the fanbase.

Can't please everyone. I think they are great.
