Kid British help to launch new City kit to the media.
Thursday afternoon saw members of the media invited for their first look at the eagerly anticipated, new Manchester City kit. Before the grand unveiling they were treated to the sounds of Manchester band, Kid British. Their performance buoyed those gathered and certainly set the scene for the reveal. The reception to the new strips followed on from the fans’ and music industry’s reactions and was very good. Successful feedback all round it would seem.

Dear Umbro friends,
Why don’t you create an International UMBRO Football Series Cup.
With UMBRO teams like Manchester City, Santos, Rangers and Lyon.
That would be a great MKT opportunity,with matches around the world.
Regards,
and GO SANTOS !!!

Yeah that would be great! Unfortunately I don’t think we have the power to put on games of that scale, however it would be really good.

Does the Black Manchester City kit have buttons on the neck?
Also, the drill top is similar in design to the England version, will City’s training stuff echo the England range?

Hi Kev the Cod. Thanks for the comment, however I am afraid I can’t divulge any new info on the City kits than is already on this blog – it is worth more than my life! However, there are some more photos of the kit and drill top on our flickr account at: http://www.flickr.com/photos/umbrofootball/

There’s only one problem here…three out of the four band members are United fans so I doubt they’ll be helping to support the launch!
