i just call em nyc or city...cant let a shite city like orlando call themselves city we are THE city, the best in the world whats so good about orlando anyway? Old people, tourists, disney and universal? pffft we are CITY fuck those purple pansies
Why do defenders of the kit keep saying "similar" when the thing is more of a replica? Address the situation directly. Please. Don't hide behind euphemisms.
It is not a replica. It is very similar.
However, I do 100% agree with you that I would have loved more differentiation. The NYC character will come with time. The team is still a baby.
This is what really illustrates the problem.Fair enough, put them side to side and you can play "what's the difference between these 2 pictures." But wear it on the street and 90% of passers-by will think its Man City.
On the plus side, I really do like the Inaugural Season logo on the bottom. Quite well done.
because looks like an old subway token and people voted on it.Again how is it that a majority of people were fine with our crest but the jersey is being widely panned?
Maybe you aren't happy with the colours of the kit. But to state that the club has no link with NY is absurd, it was to be expected that it would look similar to MCFC. If the shirt had navy blue pinstripes would there have been so much hate, no. The club can't demand to adidas what they want, they get given templates.
But wear it on the street and 90% of passers-by will think its Man City.
Whining like a child on a forum will surely get the proper changes made!And what's the official template/name of your position? You're clearly in the third rail back pocket where you can't see reality due to your own dam corporate ownership.
Lots of people are fucking stupid. Lots of New Yorkers aren't. CFG doesn't fucking get it. They could make it better by retracting this shit. But they won't. I'm disgusted thus far.
Every damn time I give them more chances, they shit the bed. And Fuck you Mancs. Make one goddamn excuse. It just proves your allegiance and my point. Eat my hairy LFC loving nuts, you goddamn wankers wanting us to be a minor league squad.
"Nick-Fic"
Yankees + Man City = The Mankees
We wanted our own gear. Similar is fine. Inspired by is fine. Brand extension is fine. Brand duplication is -- to me -- unimaginative and boring.
I wanted a shirt I could have worn without having to explain "No, I don't like Man City. Look closer.
At the moment, I think you're right. Majority of the population (tri-state and beyond) has no idea about NYCFC because we haven't played a game yet!!
Revisit the issue in 2-3 years and I don't think you'll have any problems wearing your NYCFC jersey around town.
