Blue shorts should be only be worn with amber or white away shirts. We are not Chelsea, we play in blue and white.

Played in the blue shorts at Old Trafford for years

Agree, we've had some funny combinations over the years in deciding what Blue combo we have chosen or whether second or third kit. United wearing white shorts may be a reason for the us changing to Blue shorts there- perhaps up to the referee - remember Big Dunc scoring a worldwide with his left peg at Old Trafford in a 2 - 2 draw one midweek - with us in Royal Blue top and shorts. City away has been more taxing with kit choices though - worn Royal Blue, White, Amber and no doubt every hue in between. Royal Blue away at City ain't a clash as far as I can see but we ain't consistent in what we wear away from home. Arsed, probably not but it seems there ain't much guidance, especially when we have change (Blue) home shorts and socks as well as two other change kits!!!

Second Kit this year was the black one, but we have worn the third kit away more. Then we throw in a special edition cup kit - Black Kit Cup Away released with Amber Numbers rather than white as used for Prem games - never used as we were knocked out at home twice in both cups!!! Keeping up? I couldn't either, my lad told me that Everton just have too many kits!!!

Then it starts again next year!! Three new kits, throw in a Cup Special edition, poss Europa badges to add, then usual 60% sale from December!! Can we just have two kits that we wear please? Royal Blue home and away and unless we clash, wear the away one?

double them all up when you include the 'Europa Font' badge etc etc

way too many imo, we should only need 2 kits, if it's amber away then there will be occasions where the home team are in yellow & blue stripes but imo cross that bridge as you get to it or at least make the change shirt reversible.
 
All Blue a New thing they say ?

I think UEFA regs say you need 3 so we'll have to comply with that though I agree with you above.

As for people asking for all blue we've Everton FC, blue shirts, white shorts. Keep your all blue for OT, Arse, Stoke etc
 
Info about the new letters and numbers. These look pretty good and not that big a change from the current style.

I think some of the time the limited colours of the names and numbers really let the kits down. Like with our Green and Orange kit a few years back, it looked great with the "non Premier league" Orange names and numbers, but looked naff with the Premier League white ones.
