Errea....new kit supplier?

[JT89]

Release a picture. Build the hype.

And the hype will have died down before its available to buy, which makes it a stupid idea.

If its a decent enough kit the hype will last. Look at the fluorescent release last season - that was huge. And that kit is 30 years old.

Although it's getting released regardless so whether they show us now or at Christmas it makes no odds.

The socks we wore for the Scunthorpe game (with the black/red lines & blades on) are different to the plan white socks from the Casa Pia & Lincoln games.

Just because the club haven't revealed and put the new kits on sale yet, doesn't mean they don't have the kits for the players...

 

[The Crab]

It would be stupid to reveal the kit before there's sufficient stock and all outlets available for sales, which is probably why it won't be released until it can be available in all 3 outlets (online, meadowhall & ground) - the biggest time for sales is when there's the initial hype around the release.

P.s as per my post above, at least some of the kit is most definitely made and at the club

Maybe. Or another school of thought is release some pictures and get people looking forward to it?

I went to the pics couple of weeks ago. The trailer for the new Mission Impossible film looked great, but it's not out til next year by the looks of it. I suppose my point is that it plants a little anticipation in there.

So with the shirts, I just think a little sneak preview is better than nothing, instead of wondering what the fuck the players are going to turn out in at Watford. Because by then, if the kit for the players isn't even ready, then that's a bit fucked up in my view.

Is it my turn to ask ….is it today dad ?

 

[Jon Bon II]

The socks have been weleased - WELEASE THE SHORTS!

[Balti Pie]

Pretty sure that in previous years our kits have been delayed due to us finalising sponsors. I think we all assume that Randox will be the main sponsor on the front, but maybe we're still negotiating a deal with other sponsors for the back, shorts, etc.?
OK we've released shirts before and then been told there'll be a big fuck-off Door Deals badge on the back when on sale, so maybe that's bollocks!
Maybe we're arguing with Randox over the main sponsor colours?
Or summat!

Only same as asking for nudes before you go round and try her for size.

True that. But you usually find out the photos are at least 10 years old or are of someone else (or so I've been told )

"among the first to achieve the Oeko-Tex certification"!

You'll never sing that.

Among the last to get a kit out....

 

[ChipButtyBlade]

I have'nt seen the new kit yet,is it cheap and cheerfull in price and design ?

 

[Lmaobob]

Club could make a killing if they announce the kit as a package deal with an air con unit. £300 for the combination. I'd snap their hands off

 

[Scarebus]

Seems to be missing the most important question...

Weeerz Kit?

 

[Ainsley Harriott]

Nobody has seen it. There isn't one. Design will be cheap, price will be £45-55. The article above says it takes 10 months from design to getting it out. We signed a contract last month. No kit this season.

 

[247Blade]

Looks a lot like our pre-season kit!

Hope they washed the shirts before next United World team use em!

 

[Mesut Özil's Lawnmower]

No worries lads, at least there’s a special United World shirt, maybe you can take this on your holidays instead?

Why is James Shield there?

We had his input for the design and it’s going to be red & white newspaper print

Badges and sponsors are attached with Velcro!

Plenty of tok though, pushing towards 100 pages…

100 pages for a kit we've not even seen has to be quite, erm, pathetic?

I’d need to see a breakdown of how we got to this number…

In my experience it’s probably 20 pages on why Sheffield is shit, 15 pages slagging off McBurnie, 10 pages of tangential pun exchanges, 10 pages of people telling JJBlade to shut up and at least 3 fax machine jokes. Only leaves about 30 odd pages of kit talk, which, erm, is, erm yeah a little pathetic maybe.

There's at least 10 pages of people thinking they're the first person to come up with di-Errea and another 20 of Adidas kit snobs calling us tinpot

That’s actually a really, really nice shirt.

 

[Mesut Özil's Lawnmower]

That’s actually a really, really nice shirt.

apart from the fact it’s got united world and several other tinpot teams plastered across it

 

[TJB.]

That’s actually a really, really nice shirt.

I'm sure there'll be plenty in stock...
