Cleethorpes beach is looking better...

It's the age old issue of "it looks easy" when you're sat in the stand.

If I see snooker on TV, I think god it's easy the balls aren't even moving and you can take ages to pick your shot, then my best break ever is probably 4 balls in total!

And one of those 4 balls is the white presumably stopping the nailed-on 147 break in its tracks!?!

Umbro produced shite for years during the 00’s and 10’s but I’m now fully on board with get them back ASAP. Them and Kitlocker - a Sheffield company - are doing some great stuff recently. Giving lower league clubs like Grimsby, Carlisle and Cambridge some cracking bespoke designs.

Really appreciate it, I've been here for 9 years now and we're only just getting started with Pro Clubs, having just announced AFC Wimbledon in Lotto as well. Maybe one for the Blades one day, fingers crossed.

I'm intrigued what you and the team think a United kit could look like? I wasn't aware of the company reading this thread, but like the look of the stuff on Insta - Congratz on the Dons deal BTW. From the POV of someone within the 'industry' what would you say are the essential hallmarks of a United kit, the non-negotiables, beyond the Red and White of course?

Anyone else hate Nike kits? Really wish they weren't England's kit manufacturer, would be delighted if England dropped them.

They owned Umbro for a while and spun them off just so they could get the England contract, nearly destroying Umbro in the process.

They’re generally terrible. They look and feel cheap in the main, like puma. Some of the England kits over the years have been good, but some real shockers as well. I keep my England shirts tucked away for 2 years and bring them out for tournaments. The difference between the Umbro of mid 00’s and the modern Nike is night and day.

On the new training kit it gives the option to have the sponsor printed on or not, do we reckon we'll get the same option on the proper kit?

Looks like someone's just nicked that big sack of spuds he was carrying on his back to the deep fat fryer.

The EFL (and EPL) code of conduct for gambling related sponsorship agreements;

https://www.efl.com/governance/code-of-conduct-for-gambling-related-agreements/

"3.5.2. Ensuring that mechanisms exist to enable supporters to have the ability to purchase adult
replica kits that do not include gambling sponsorship logos, in the event that they are not
otherwise available for purchase."

The Waford drama earlier in the week about not liking their sponsors new colour scheme was a marketing gimmick, they offer a shirt without a sponsor to comply with the new code of conduct. Absolutely nothing to do with the new colour of their sponsors logo.

QPR and Errea just released their away. Looks horrific. Same fabric every year

Classic

Surely a Friday afternoon is the best time of the week to announce a new kit... c'mon down something

 

[Ron_Justice]

You know what is the same every year? My surprise at the amount of material scientists, performance wear specialist and fashionista's we have here. Genuinely, it's mad how opinionated people get specifically about the shirts etc. I'm not sure what people expect TBH, maybe I'm neive, but surely there's only so much we can expect from a load of Bangladesh polyester.

Bangladesh? We're not that upmarket, we'll be lucky if ours are made in South Sudan.

Thrilled with it

Someone sent me a version of this in yellow and purple and said it was our new third kit. A take on the avec away kit. Also said that the home kit will have a black band across like the last umbro kit that we had. I think he's taking rubbish though .

 

[Pandev]

Purple third kit?

 

[JEDMBlade]

Putting two n two together… and getting it hopelessly wrong… is there gonna be a mid to Leadmill somewhere in this like we did with Cathedral last year?

 

[Macfarlane21]

Released on a sunday! Very random! Looking forward to seeing it

 

[calcalcal]

Seem to recall someone on here saying one was white and gold and one light purple. This would suggest he is right

Sell Monday/Tuesday ready for York!

Purple third kit?

Homage to the "other" Prince.

 

[Fjortoft's Aeroplane]

Seen a pic on facebook which is a light-ish purple with collar, errea logo, blades badge and sponsor all in white. Pretty bland to be honest, white is a boring colour to put with purple.

 

[Tony_Kaufman]

Must say the light purple on the warrington wolves away kit (my lad has one) is really nice. That shade would be good. Close?
