One for himself, and one for his mirror.

That swirl on the front looks pretty shit, ruins what would of been a very nice shirt.
Is better than alot of our recent efforts though.
It's only a 3rd kit though isnt it ?
I think that City shirt could be the dogs bollox. Generally City always have a decent shirt.
oh, and i forgot, if you pre-order the shirt you get a free ticket to a concert at Eastlands.
Doves are playing.
not bad eh? surely we could've had terry garoghan at withdean or something.
come on bloom, sort it out!
Too fussy, just like the home shirt, which should be simple blue and white stripes, back and front, and on the sleeves - not rocket science.
oh, and meant to say ...
manchester city have half unveiled their new shirt today, it's a beautifully simple umbro number along the same lines as england's fab new one.
more to the point though is the way City have marketed it. there's plenty of rumours around but no leaked pictures came out, just really subtle advertising around manchester showing the collar only.
next thing they did was 'rent' the shutters on the front of shops in the Northern Quarter (the creative centre of manc. a bit like the North Laine) and put big simple murals up - i.e. one record shop just had a big blue moon and then the launch date in little numbers at the bottom, other shops just had a massive red and black sash on white (traditional City away kit) with another release date. a cool vintage clothes shop had a big gold bee (symbol of lancs) on it, another a big red rose (another symbol of lancs). there was also big inflatable bananas on shop fronts and the new Tailored by Umbro logo too.
I'm not saying that Albion have the same resources as City, but good PR is available to the club if they wanted it, and this campaign really created a buzz.
i suppose it helps that the shirt is really nice.
Not quite a full veiw but here is a player modeling it...
