Our new third strip has received universal praise following its winning debut this weekend at Fratton Park.

The rather fetching red and black sash on white ensemble is a remastered version of City’s late-seventies away kit and rather unusually for a modern football shirt includes our main sponsors Etihad subtly under the club crest rather than across the front.

The new kit’s striking design has gone down a storm with fans, players and football personalities alike including Sky Sport’s Richard Keys who declared his liking for the strip live on air before the Portsmouth game last Sunday.

Fans will be able to pre order the new third kit online this Friday before it goes on general sale on September 26th.
