John 0 Posted March 9, 2010 [quote user="Bethnal Yellow and Green"][quote user="cityangel"]I really like it but wouldn''t buy one with AVIVA on it after they got involved with that club down the road.[/quote]Yeah, but they gave us a very generous sponsorship deal, much larger than Flybe were paying despite the club heading downhill. Much rather have Aviva on the shirt than Digital Phone or whatever mickey mouse company it was a few years ago.[/quote]Plus, they''ve relieved their sponsorship for various charities, provided us with "the big shirt", and handed out various freebies, including the ''boom boom sticks'' and AVIVA scarves, amongst other things and events i imagine.Admittedly not neccessarily quite ''massive'' things in themselves, but they seem more dedicated to making an effort in helping the cause and developing an affiliation with the fans than the likes of Flybe.

Its only my opinion 0 Posted March 9, 2010 What does it mean by subtle double stripes woven into the fabric... is it like 2 different shades of yellow ie when we had mitre and the mitre logo was in the material all over but can only see it close up??

Much rather have Aviva on the shirt than Digital Phone or whatever mickey mouse company it was a few years ago.[/quote] True but I can''t forgive AVIVA for bailing them out a few years ago long before they decided to help us out.[/quote]I refuse to buy an Avulva one too, but not just because of the above - I worked for them for five and a half years, and despite having a few good laughs, making a lot of good mates and getting a decent amount of work and life experience, they''re still a blood-sucking, soul-sapping corporate pig bloating themselves at the trough. Met far too many business sell-outs there, too happy to twist the facts to their own agenda to make themselves and quicker and bigger buck. Nothing different from any large corporation, of course, but would still rather not be associated with it as a choice.Incidentally, some years ago whilst still suckling at the pig''s teat, I asked their corporate affairs people why Norwich Union was pointedly distancing itself from Norwich City. They responded by stating that not only did they believe that such a large company sponsoring NCFC would alienate those areas of the business they had bought over the years that didn''t originate in Norwich (CGU, etc), but they also didn''t consider the average football fan to be within their target market and certainly not the type of person they wanted to be associated with.That caused something of a minor uproar on the company''s intraweb, but they remained determined that they wanted nothing to do with football or its fans and that they much preferred to associate themselves with the nice, upper class athletics fans.Anyway, back on topic, the kit looks okay... little bright, or is that just my PC?

Boyo 0 Posted March 9, 2010 Is it definately only for a year? If so then it''s an absolute rip off!!! 40 pound for that rubbish for just one season!!!By the way my thoughts on the shirt is that it''s absolutely rubbish! I will stick to my 59 cup run shirt!

Rudolph Hucker 0 Posted March 9, 2010 No doubt it will embarassingly show off my mubes.The best shirt ever was the 1970''s Admiral. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pyro Pete 1,917 Posted March 9, 2010 It''s a bit conservative. I get the impression that the design team simply boot up Pro Evolution Soccer, switch to the kit editor, and pick a template at random.Anyhow, the last City home kit I actually liked was designed by that Gary/Mike/whatever Oldfield bloke. Even if it was made out of old tea-towels. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Indy_Bones 441 Posted March 9, 2010 Yet another total disgrace as far as I''m concerned - not because of the colours, design or even manufacturer, but simply due to the fact that anyone of an above average size can''t buy a shirt to support the team - at least not if they actually want to wear it...I''ve checked with the majority of other manufacturers, and many happily go up to 54" and beyond - Adidas/Chelsea even offer 8XL shirts, yet the best we can offer is a 48" max from our fabulous choice. It was bad enough squeezing into a 5XL "Flybe Fitted" monstrosity, but the fact I can''t even buy a shirt now is beyond a joke.How about actually seeing what potential demand for more ''outsizes'' is, instead of just thinking "**** you" to those of us of bigger build?The sooner we get rid of this Mickey Mouse manufacturer, and get someone who provides good quality kits in a good range of sizes the better.We''ve had racism, sexism, ageism and now we''re getting sizeism.I guess us chunky fans are lesser class citizens as far as this club is concerned...
