Its City's nod to the prisoners at Guantanamo Bay. That way we can all be prisoners too.

I am all for it. Bright colours make it easier for a player to pick out his team mates in his peripheral vision (maybe that's why teams like Man U, Arsenal & Liverpool have always done well).

Anyone remember the outcry when England played in Grey a few years ago?

Absolutely awful,
Either Sky BLUE
or
RED & BLACK stripes
if they really need a third strip let them have Maroon (Some historical ties)

Hate it. Hard to stomach. Really bad. Just do not wear them again.

I think I've made my feeling known.

Why, why, why do these teams keep insisting on horrible alternate color combinations? See also: Werder Bremen, Barcelona, Chelsea, etc., etc. What's next, day-glo puce?

What's with the backlash? I saw this game on FSC and I thought they looked sharp. It's not like it's neon safety vest-orange. More like changing fall colors-orange.

I think this was done so that Shinawatra can feel like he's supporting the team while wearing a prison jumper. They need to bring Barton back - he'd love these colors as well. A lovely backheel from inmate A67t4537!

OR... maybe they are planning to issue each player a handheld stop sign so they can stand at midfield, flash the sign, and halt the opposing team's counterattack... a cunning, devious ploy - and it will probably work against Liverpool.

OK, they're FUGLY. Not as bad as the highlighter yellow of Barca and Chelsea, but FUGLY.
