Manchester City and Umbro unveiled the new 09/10 away kit. - The new kit will go on general release on August 15th and is available on pre-order through the FSC Shop soon. As pictured above, it’s the black kit which references the Manchester Bee.
David Blanch, the kit designer :
"All of the kits have a resonance in some way with both the club and the city. The away kit was partly inspired by the Manchester’ Bee’s industrious connotations and colour symbolism; which for me was power, strength and confodence."
"As with the home kit, colour balance is a really important factor. That said the away kit needed to look both bold and imposing. We chose to use the gold from the crest and use it at the shoulders to focus the upper body to open up the chest and define the upper torso. The rest of it is completely black. In relation to the black, this creates a completely different personality to the home shirt but both speak about the club’s heritage."

Anyway, I like the shirt, nice, clean design, but I think the baseball-style collar is a bit out of place.
Industrial Connotations and colour Symbolism !! what sort of mumbo jumbo is this all about
The shirt represents the clubs heritage !!! and has a different personality to the home shirt.. this is just top class utter business jargon
its not even a decent shirt.. looks like the London Wasps not the Manchester Bee\'s
Yes there is, actually. Or rather, there\'s seven of them.
They represent the industry of Manchester dating from the Industrial Revolution. So not all mumbo jumbo.
And the shirt looks very, very nice indeed. Shame the numbers will be in white rather than gold.
and i think man city will be really good this year.
have any of yous seen the new celtic away strip this will be a laugh seeing them wearing that in the tatty bowl.
What part of Manchester is Govan in?
****ing HUN prick disguised as a Man U fan. or maybe not. Does anyone from Manchester support Man U?
Anyway, you are a censored.
Thanks for bombing Old Trafford!!! :whistle:
Disrespectful t**t
We have a better kit, they have a Mexico throwback
Well win the league, they wont
Were already the best in Manchester being the only team in Manchester,
Maybe this season we can be the best in England
Yuo cannot call Man City a \'big\' club as despite their newly inherited wealth, they have not won anything for decades.
Another awful \'dark\' kit. Admittedly this site is about opinions, but although this kit is \'clean\' looking it does look very dour.
I thought Man City (by the way, the home kit is excellent, classic and smart) were having their traditional red.black srtipe kit.....
Adidias, Nike and Umbro - I honestly feel that you have all failed miserably this season, with templates, lack of imagination, lack of understanding what true passionate fans really care about - you have all been very, very poor - especially in a season heading towards a World Cup, one where England are very liikely to be part, and the Premier league will take global centre stage. Many of the Championship and Div 1 & 2 kits look superior. Perhaps the smaller kit designers are closer to the true passion of a regular fan, rather than a high-profile money pit of a club?
Would have been great as a Watford away kit!
It is, yes.
And Adebayors hair was like that 4 months ago....
Does this mean he took the picture before he signed ?
:shock:
Disappointing kit
Again big fan of the city kits
That said, we got amazing transfer fees for the underperforming pair (there\'s one born every minute!) and I\'m willing to bet any City fan that my Gunners will finish above them in the league this season. In Wenger we trust!
****er all rangers fans are chelsea supporters more or less they h8 man u they view it as a catholic team so what sort of comment is that to make u racist prick. your a glory glory hunter so fuk off both your kits have a retarded V so spin on it gaylord
i like arsenal and man city.
but not a chance the gunners are on a slippery slope which leaves me gutted. city will finish above them
Anyway, they chat a load of crap - Adebayor: \"The fans drove me out.\" Bull****! The fans have been behind Ade even when he did **** up. Anyway this season will be **** for him - he\'ll stary of well, get injured, then return even more ****ed up. As for Toure, wants to win the title. Haha! Is he havin a laff!?
and now for the important part: that shirt is pure class!!!!!! although it is true a lot of teams in the Prem are using black as the 2nd choice, this one\'s a cracker. love the yellow details on the shoulders and the collar.
Emmanuel Adebayor
This season all NIke /Adidas and most Puma and Umbro kits have been very poor indeed lacking imagination and innovation.
but they are alright i just dont like the fabrice its cotton like the england one
u money grabbing mercernaries and cant stand um bloody mancs
R.I.P. Bobby Robson......
But it does look really clean cut and classy
u money grabbing mercernaries and cant stand um bloody mancs
Coming from a sheep sh##ger thats not really an insult is it to us Mancs.......
and the collar is amazing
celtic had one like it in 2003 and sunderland had one like it aswell at some point

The current club crest was adopted in 1997, a result of the previous crest being ineligible for registration as a trademark. The badge is based on the arms of the city of Manchester, and consists of a shield in front of a golden eagle. The shield features a ship on its upper half representing the Manchester Ship Canal, and three diagonal stripes in the lower half, for the city\'s three rivers. The bottom of the badge bears the Latin motto Superbia in Praelia, which translates as Pride in Battle. Above the eagle and shield are three stars, which are purely decorative.
BTW does anyone know if forums for football and games are free thanks
nice shirt though.
but only money grabbing basterds will be playing in it!!!!!!
cause he is sick of playing for a crap team like leeds hahahahahahahaha
At first I looked at Adebayor and thought - wow, he looks like Kele from Bloc Party. Then I realised he looks like Li\'l Ze from the Brazilian movie City of God.
Anyone agree?
they got beat by the mighty rangers and all u england fans call us a pub team and calling man city the team of the future once they can beat rangers they can think about premier and europe action COME ON YOU BLUES
