Funny how they make the delay sound so positive.

A lot of clubs unveil new kits at the end of the previous season yet we always seem to unveil ours on the ev of a new season. Joke.

Likely trying to get the best deal they can. FFP and all. Every pound counts.

We already know the response by many of the fans when the kit is revealed. Like young girls when a new dress just isn't perfect.

The colour white isn't white enough, The logo is too big/too small on the shirt. They are rubbish, sponsor is rubbish, I don't like the socks, the shirt is too tight, I prefer it in Chiffon.


Jeez people it is a white shirt and black shorts. With a name of a company on it. Who gives a flying.....
The above IS NOT A LEGAL DOCUMENT. It is an opinion.

We may yet hear the horse talk.

I can stand my own despair but not others hope

Not to say I don't want the club to get the best deal, but wouldn't it be great if the shirt based off our 1975 final had no sponsor? Just a white front, like it used to be.

Theres a thread undone on the bottom hem of the shirt?  Even though I just proved Lighthouse's point immediately after he posted it.

Looking to see what happened when city put their owners logo on their shirts and how much they were allowed to pay
It could be better but it's real life and not a fantasy

"As one of the most important parts of a sponsor's association with any football club is its place on the front of the shirt that the fans wear, the Club has decided that to give maximum impact to the new sponsor's official partnering announcement, that it is going to delay the unveiling of next season's new kit until a unilateral reveal can take place."
I suspect that someone at the club has made an almighty b@11@x up of this and were expecting Marathon Bet  to take up the  1 year option, now they are chasing a new sponsor and no deal is complete yet hence the delay. 096.gig

I remember when you didn't know if we had changed our kit until the first game of the season. How uncomplicated life used to be!  092.gif

Worst things are happening in the world today so I can't get overly het up over this one...

Although if Pizza Hut re-emerged as our sponsor then I would put that on a par with what is happening in Greece  :dft011:

Of course this is all so trivial in the grand scheme of things BUT!

Its another poorly managed bit of business from the club, regardless of whats going on and who's fault it is, it looks amateurish at the very least.

Maybe the new sponsor is currently in a sponsorship deal until the end of July and has to wait before an announcement being made. Does anyone on this board know for sure what is happening? Probably not but it is very easy to lay into the club for poor mamangement etc etc.
