The white 3rd away kit of this past season will or should be replaced by a new blue away kit which moves into our 2nd kit (1st choice away kit) with the Black away kit moving as our 3rd kit (2nd choice away kit). Basically the white one will go away and blue will come in. Red and Black will stay for next season.

why do we play in blue !? i dnt understand it at all !
Nothing wrong with blue. We won the 1968 European Cup in blue!

I remember us hammering Arsenal 6-2 at Highbury in the Rumblelows Cup in blue and white too - it was the first United shirt I ever had. :eek:

but blue is the complete opposite of our royal red color. its the enemys color. its just wrong in my eyes. u neva see city playing in red. u neva see liverpool playing in a blue strip.
Ah but having a blue away kit means we always have to play in red against City, Chelsea etc ;) and our biggest enemy, Liverpool, play in red too, as do Arsenal.

Anyway, I prefer the black kit to any of the other colours we play in tbh.

Well, the red one is staying, as is the black (though that'll be moved to the third kit) and its the turn of a blue strip. I quite like the blue strips, though I prefer the black and white ones.

Unfortunately for the person who said he wanted to see the new GK kits, we're not getting a new GK kit either :p

Blue kits dont go down well with fans for the obvious reasons stated.

Do we actually need a third kit if we aint got a white shirt as arsenal are the only ones who play in red and a different colour in premier league

The rule should be that if the home and away kits are both colours then both should change into their away shirts. Does away then with need for a 3rd kit which gets an outing once a season but 9 year old kids still want it

For some reason I tend to like our blue kits. Not sure why but I think they just seem to look nice.

As for the black kit that will be moved to third choice, and the home shirt will remain until the end of the 2008/09 season.

Kit's are usually available to buy for around the end of July, or the start of August with them being previewed by players a few weeks before I think. There may be leaked images around somewhere but I wouldn't count on any of them being the real thing until I hear it from United officially.

the blue vodafone one was nice, the one where ruud basically wrapped up the title for us at highbury
I was going to mention this jersey as well. It's one of my favourite away jerseys ever.
but FU does make a valid point here:

This season's black one and last season's home kits are my personal favourites.

Oh and the jersey in post 5 is a fake from what I hear.
I hope so anyway cos I think it's a bit nasty.....

Edit: just saw your sig JD. It's savage, a bit big but I still love looking at it lol
Doesn't the one of '99 seem quite old in a weird sort of way?
