RoystonFoote'snephew Posted June 24, 2022 Report Share Posted June 24, 2022 I'd hoped for something more exciting than a so-so third kit. Given that City now seem to like some sort of theme their shirts what does grey and orange represent? Having a tango on a foggy day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It used to be first and change kit, has that changed? Honest question. I don't get the point of a 3rd kit tbh.

RedRock Posted June 24, 2022 Report Share Posted June 24, 2022 Going to sound a bit like Lee ‘Mr 1%’ Johnson here, but I do hope we undertake some scientific research into kit colours and ability of players to pick out colleagues on the pitch. Micro-seconds count at Championship level. I get it works both ways and our players maybe harder to pick out by opponents, plus we’ve a splash of orange, but wouldn’t want to sacrifice points for ‘fashion’. Maybe it’s just memories of Fergie and that Man U kit change at half-time away at Soton! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yepp, also part of the reason why I like the bright/busy goalkeeper kits that (theoretically) give a goalkeeper a small advantage by making him look bigger to a striker. As much as some fans accuse LJ of talking rubbish, the concept of marginal gains is very valid one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think the problem with Lee was he focused too much on the marginal gains and overlooked the fundamentals unfortunately! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
