New Kits

[stubbo-admin]

Newsflash...it's not Kappa....but in my opinion they look shite.

Anyway, supposedly these are very very close to what the actual kits look like.

Hate the claret socks. Looks like a Burnley kit.

I like the away, reminds me of Hugo Porfirio.

Same in the snow. Ecru vintage.

12 million a year is neither here nor there in terms of a premier league finances.   The club would have got far more respect from fans if they had put the Bobby Moore charity on the shirts.   

As a fan, I'd agree. But then you waive your right to moan about any wages or fees that £12million might have covered. So actually, I'd say that this is not only a good deal but factoring in the possibility of being relegated, whilst showing a concerning lack of ambition, shows a foresight in business matters that we rarely see from this board.

Barcelona never had a sponsor on their shirt and the fans were not accepting of the idea of having one.

Eventually they put unicef on there to make it look like they were doing a good thing and no fans can argue with it.

Then of course, once fans were used to a logo on their shirts, an actual sponsor can be brought in.

If I were you, Huffers, I'd keep away from discussions about shirts. You're a disgrace to the club.

NO, these aren't the kits - this is someone doing a mock-up based on third-hand descriptions so don't take them as gospel.

That said - they're not far off. The ecru one is incredibly popular and one that's long been demanded to return. The home is obviously awful and lacks blue, but the entire kit was previously completely claret - so be grateful that that got changed.

The Club were excited that Betway was ending a year before the ban as it got them out ahead of the rest of the pack in the hunt for a non-gambling sponsor. So presumably Boyle have offered a lot more than anyone else to lose that advantage.....

It's £12.5million for this season, ending if we stay up. If we go down it's a further two years at £9.2million with a severance clause if we go straight back up 

There's no betting firm ban in the Championship.

Excellent point about the championship

Mock up kits are accurate.jpeg

I like the away shirt.
WHU at home should always  be white shorts and white socks imo...but each to their own

[Far Cough UKunt]

Charities don't pay I mean I dunno how Barcelona went for years using UNICEF as their shirt sponsor?

I thought the idea was not to be sponsored by a betting company? Isn't there a ban probably coming in?
Not a lot of blue in that shirt.

This is the last year I think. Betway expired so we just signed for one season with Boylesports IIRC

Shame the club didn't do something decent like offer a charity to have their logo on the shirt for a year.

Tiny Wanker Appreciated Talents Society would be the only charity Sullivan would support.

Everybody point at Toms and laugh!

[Keep dreaming]

If we strengthen our squad, plays well with energy and entertainment, and maybe win something - i would love this kit.

I don’t mind the away. I liked the 90’s ecru kit. 

The home is awful. It’s very simple to just keep it claret, blue sleeves, white shorts and socks. 

I used to like when we alternated light blue, white, navy away kits.

[Mike Oxsaw]

Is the general edict from the club "Make us look as 2-bob as you can, in any way you can"?

Boyle Sports is everywhere in Ireland. Take any English High Street and change ALL the bookies on it to one brand, that's what it's like over there.

[Sydney_Iron]

I dont mind the home kit, well apart from "Boyle Sport" written on it who the fuck are they?

The away kit though, WTF is that load of old shit? looks a right dogs dinner with them socks an all

[Pi Alpha Nu]

Fucking hell that is shit! who the fuck are Boyle Sports?

[fraser]

Pony shirt and sponsor quite fitting for a pony club. 

[Mad Ferret]

Calm down, guys

Those ain’t the new kits.

[Mad Dog]

Seriously.  Burn it.  Burn it with fire
