uhh no that's maroon.
That's as much red as the stripe in United's away shirt was so blue last year, in other words, not so much!
It's claret/maroon not red....Ever notice that United wear Blue in their away kits ??
Especially last year, baby blue...censored skae..
:)
Anyway, they've won maroon since the very first Umbro shirt they wore in the 1933 FA Cup final. The traditional 60s-70s City scarves were blue white and maroon like the thing inside the collar.
Also Chesea, United's away kit chevon was not "baby blue", it just looked lighter against the black.
dull and boring, just like the tailored England shirts. where's the imagination??
hey Phil wake the censored up. sometimes a clean classic jersey is nice. doesn't have to be busy and exotic with all those fruity stripes on it to make it exciting for your dull cow eyes
The socks are sky blue with maroon tops and 2 white stripes, the shorts are pure white with tonal badges...
Do they?
If they want the shirt they will yes!
That's probably because Umbro is owned by Nike, who makes Villa's kits and I'd guess that since they are part of the same company they share fonts and such
Umbro operates independently from Nike. Just like Reebok and Adidas.

Butthurt City fans won't let themselves believe it's not original.
think i may buy this for going on holiday
In my opinion, all those flashes and chevrons and other crap that you see on shirts look dated.
Just a shame that the trailblazer for all this simple tailoring is the world's most primitive footballing nation.
It's just marketing rollocks.
AND, does anyone know why the richest club in the world still need a shirt sponsor? They hardly need the money...
Not sure if serious.
1. The point of a home kit is that it's always the same colour.
2. Shirt sponsor = income. Have you been asleep while Platini introduced his "income only" brainwave?
I am serious about point one - it's good that tradition rules and that City will always play in sky-blue, Liverpool in red, Chelsea blue etc but it's not so good that every season sees a big ol' fanfare for yet another kit that is essentially the same as the one it's replacing. I like this City shirt, but it's last season's with a different colour collar. And they'll still charge £40 plus for it. It's a disgrace and just fleeces idiotic fans (like me, I'm guilty, I buy them too) and this time next year there'll be another sky-blue City home shirt for sale at £40 plus, and another red Liverpool home shirt etc etc
Point two was serious, but I didn't know about Platini's diktat, so you've got me on that one
but they need a new trainer beacuse they lose all there matches
Obviously the need to sell shirts drives them to change every year, but if customers knew there would be a sense of permanence about the kit, don't you think a few more people would be willing to invest in a shirt?
Can't wait for the training gear, and the keeper home kit is off the hook sick!
Man, City is sick with it! Dude the only thing for future home kits or for training range is that they need to mix gold with the sky blue. The eagle is gold so incorporate that with the sky blue.
great shirt overall.
love the MCFC Coulor
This is Aitor Throup's template on a city shirt. Yes this shirt looks like last seasons, if you don't like it don't buy it I guess. As regards design I find it a touch lazy that they have used the England template on this shirt.
But I know that I will be investing in the warm up jacket!
All the best
