Most liked posts in thread: Favourite city kit

98/99 for me. Controversial but I do like the hoops from 2012/13. It

 

1968-1969 (and a bit before) claret and amber stripes, black shorts and black socks “topped” with claret and amber hoops.

That really is how I think of our kit.

No mucking about, as described there is nothing close to the above.

 

Not a Bradford City fan but when I was in secondary school in Stretford I always wanted this kit!

 

What about the kit though?

 

This seasons kit is the worst we’ve had for years, a close second to Edin’s “fighting kit”.

 

I wasn't around in the late 60's and early 70's but that kit for me with the claret and amber stripes and black shorts looks fantastic.The TV footage of the home game in the 1970 FA cup match against spurs for me makes our kit with those colours look different to every other kit and again, look fantastic.

 

I had a subbuteo team with that kit !

 

This kit for me… But only if Waddle is wearing it.

 

I'll say it again, fantastic looking kit.

 

How can you not like our colours, unique to the football league.
You instantly know who we are, unless your a Chinese tourist, who thinks its Harry Potter and not the one that played for us in the early 1900's.

 

68/69 for me always been my favourite
Traditional. !!!

 

Last years shirt, with the full stripes round the back, was class. But would have been much better paired with black shorts and claret socks with black & amber tops.

 

This season they didnt even get the right sport,its a rugby top

 

I prefer the away shirts. Really liked the one from last season.

 

It clashes with my artistic eye I think lol my son thinks I am mad, and has said exactly what you have said.

 

I was up in Fort William a few years ago, where the steam train leaves from ,that was used in the films.
I was just having a good wander around Glen Nevis. Went past the station and it was heaving with tourist.
I had my City scarf on and two Chinese girls in full Wizard gear, wands and all pointed and said Harry Potter,
I tried to explain, but i do not think they understood. Later that day i was accused of being a Motherwell fan.
Motherwell played in Blue until 1913 and then changed to our colours , to emulate us .

 

I quite often buy the home shirt, stayed away from this years, its awful and would probably bring me out in a rash!

 

I meant to add that in honour of the 2012/13 season I painted the chimney of the old disused greenhouse boiler on our allotment plot claret and amber. It was much easier in hoops than stripes!

 

I hate any all white kit for obvious reasons. Mine is the all claret kit of the 1970s
