Everyone going on how awful the 3rd kit is is probably, sorry to offend as I don't mean to, likely a middle aged or above white bloke lol.

TBF, that's a lot of our fan base, I know, but I don't think they make the 3rd kit for that crowd.

Our multi-coloured striped purple & orange 2nd or 3rd away kit 2 seasons ago which some also hated I thought was mint.

I actually bought one, but I didn't like the V neck cut so sent it back, nor do I usually like that cut on kits as I'm not thick in the neck area. Last season's kits were all V neck, and whilst I liked the rest of the design for the away kit, I didn't get it because of that.

Are you discriminating against middle aged life long city fans that have followed city through thick and thin ??? To be fair that monstrosity of a third kit sums up modern day football day trippers and tourists , it is perfect for them !!!

Nah mate, I would never do that. I do think you are correct in that the 3rd kit is made for a different audience.

Younger fans, and certainly female fans (I read some tweets from older fans who said their daughter's love it). Notice that the photo shoot was with a female fan. I believe she was Asian. The other lad was black. We are a global club at this point with fans all over the world.

However, there are also young and "'hip" Mancs out there and other long time City fans into "edgier" fashion who I think might like the kit.
