Personally disliked that kit more than any we have ever had. Looked better with the white shorts that were the first choice ones but still horrible.
Plain or stripes? (7 Viewers)

Certainly have. Only noticed one team at first. I then noticed there was two teams. One of the teams were playing in green and had blended in with the grass

All my favourite kits have dark blue in them but its a mixture of stripes and plain. I think it's good that we mix it up, I can't think of another club that does it as often and as well as we do. I'd love us to go back to the Sky Blue and Dark Blue stripes.
I loved the one with the dark blue arms and pin stripes... second year in Champ, maybe?
Going against the grain... I love this seasons kit. The last two we've had have been the best since the Prem IMHO.

Cornish pasty?
What is the use of sky blue and dark blue when you can only see the dark blue?

Plain blue for me, never been a fan of stripes, makes us look like Sheff Wed, Huddersfield, WBA, Brighton, Colchester and Bristol Rovers , I'm sure there are more. Just think the plain blue looks smarter, as long as its not this baby blue they keep confusing for Sky Blur!

Stripes for me. My earliest memories were of City in stripes winning the cup at Wembley. Maybe if the club reverted back to stripes Cov's fortunes might change for the better. A long shot, but worth a try.

But it'd be sky blue stripes, not dark blue stripes. Can't see how we would look like anyone else.
Even more so if it was sky blue and dark blue stripes.
Or go for a modernised version of one from way back when. I really like this one below.

More chance of getting on a horse than playing football looking like that

Plain I like, Stripes I like but hoops, no! Wouldnt suit us IMO. Just out of curiosity, have we ever had a hoops kit?

We've never had hoops and thank God we haven't. Horrible.

We went through that stage when Richard Shaw was playing for us, but must admit, it was a good kit.

Bristol Rovers play in quartered blue and white i believe, as for the stripes yes please, am tired of the whole sky blue thing, just not purple and yellow for the away kit. How about the black away shirt i really liked that but trimmed with sky blue instead of gold.

Todays kit is far to pale, I much prefer the JH darker/bolder Sky Blue kit.
What song would we sing.....Mark Robins, Sky Blue and Royal Blue Striped Armyyyyy!.....Don't think so Otis!
But we have had stripes in 1983-1987, then 1989-1992, then 1996-1999, 2000-2001, 2003-2004, 2005-2007 and 2008-2009.
We were still singing Sky Blue army throughout that lot! 15 years of stripes there.
Can't say it's not in our history and one of our very first ever strips was sky blue and white stripes.

@ Otis....
We wore Black and Red for a number of years too. In the days of "The Bantams" it was dark blue and white stripes.
If we were to revert back to the Sky Blue and Dark Blue Stripes I would feel as if we had(As I did then) lost our identity.
We are the "Sky Blues" meaning majority of Sky Blue, not a mish mash of colours mate.......My opinion, of course

Well yes, of course. just at least 15 years we played as the Sky Blues in sky blue with stripes. That's all I'm saying.
Don't recall anyone ever saying we had stopped being the Sky Blues when we had the stripes. I certainly didn't feel we'd lost any identity. I just thought we had a great kit for a change!

Personally I prefer plain sky blue, love this seasons for example. No problem with the stripes either. No hoops thank you
