Away Kit now availabe for pre-order

I'm not sure if the demand is there for another batch, but if enough people are keen, I am willing to place an order for the Away kit as well. I can also order more Home shirts and exchange any problem orders if required.

If not, there will definitely be a bulk order placed for the Limited-Edition Third kit in October.

The black shirt looks pretty damn sweet in any case...

You may have missed...

There's so much going on in the way of transfers, it's nigh on impossbile to keep up. And not all of them are worthy of a dodgy photoshop... Here's a few of the ins and outs:

• Nedum Onuoha signs new long term deal (get the fuck in).
• Felipe Caicedo joins Sporting Lisbon on loan.
• Valeri Bojinov joins Parma on loan.
  
• Elano transferred to Galatasaray.
• Chad Evans transferred to Sheffield United.
• Shaleum Logan joins Tranmere Rovers on loan.

Kolo Toure signs!

Manchester City have shocked world football once again, this time by actually signing a defender. Arsenal centre-half Kolo Toure has officially joined the Blues, for a reported £15million.

Hughes really does seem intent on creating a high quality squad of players, rather than just a best eleven and a few others. And it is amazing to think that last summer's key signings, such as Vincent Kompany and Pablo Zabaleta, may not even find a place on the bench, let alone in the starting line-up.

Kolo speaks:

“It is always difficult to leave a place where you have spent the last eight years and had good times but I felt the time was right for a new challenge and I am still at an age, 28, where I feel I am at my peak and will play my best football".

“For me it was time to move but only for the right club and I feel that Manchester City is that club. The ambition here is clear to see and is big. Everyone knows this club is moving and that is really, really important.

“I still want to achieve things and I feel as though I can bring something to City and that is what I will be striving to do. It is not just about quality on the pitch it is about blending as a team and with my experience I think I can help City do just that.”

His comments reflect what other summer signings have said. We are an ambitious club, and a team that's going places. Good times ahead.

A big thanks to the assembled crowd at COMS who were able to secure a picture for us.

Kits Posted

All kits are now travelling to their destination via Express Post.

So hopefully you will all get them tomorrow, if not Friday.

Any problems, let me know as soon as possible.

They're Here!

This morning was very much like Christmas morning, except for the fact Santa came by Australia Post van. Our new kits have arrived!

They are absolutely fantastic. The texture on the inside is what you'd expect from a football shirt, a kind of breathable mesh. But the outside has the feel of a fine cotton t-shirt. The badge is embroidered with the finest detail. It really is brilliant.

So I should be posting these over the next couple of days, so they'll arrive by Thursday at the latest. If there is an issue with sizing, let me know as soon as possible, although everything should be in order.

When the third kit is released in October, we'll do another bulk lot then if everyone is keen. Thanks to all brave enough to trust me with their money...
