She said a Welsh Red Rugby top despite us all hating rugby lol he needs a red top to wear because he is in the red group in school and when they go to Disney land it's a st David's day celebration thing so she wanted him to wear it.
I said I couldn't buy a rugby top for him.
She said what about a red Cardiff top but I don't think I can
He has loads of city stuff already in blue and with the real badge all bough by me but he hasn't really got into football like I hoped. He is more into super hero's and Lego.
I suggested a welsh football top but she said he will look like a loser and its hard to disagree.
Thought? What would you buy?
Alternatively any other birthday present suggestions. He had everything he bloody wanted for Xmas

I'd never buy my son a red city shirt though.

If you don't buy him a city shirt how can you call yourself a true City fan?? If you honestly feel that strongly against buying a child a city shirt perhaps you shouldnt go to see the teameither.

Or if push comes to shove the old City red away kit with our natural bluebird badge.

I don't mind him having a red top if that's what he wants but he hasn't said he does.
I certainly can't deal with him having a rugby top. It would just feel weird buying one

Besides keep getting our kids the re branded tops that is what they will always associate us with. They need to be taught our history and the importance of the Bluebird and its what we supported

He aint mine he is my nephew I aint into that swansea thing of inbreeding
I got him the red top it felt dirty and I told the woman serving me He has had the blue top for the past 6 years and has a load of polo shirts and Tshirts with what I class as the real badge on (not Sams and not VT's).
At the end of the day though I have no problem with people wearing the red top and just because I don't want to wear one it doesnt mean I should stop him wearing one.
My dad convinced me when he said what would you rather he got more interested in Rugby or supported Cardiff in Red or whatever colour. When he is older he can make his own decisions so I'll just make him well aware of the blue, my bedroom is like a shrine to it so
