New Kit - Now out in September

[The Man With A Stick]

It's a joke no wonder spurs have got fourth at the first try, we have had 2 attempts bought shit players and wasted a lot of money!

First time of asking?  That'll be the same Spurs that have been banging on for about eight years about how this is definitely their year for finishing fourth?

Are those polo shirts on sale in the club shop yet?

Purple things, big lion on them. Those.

Yup, the shop in town had them a couple of weeks back.

Cheers

[Drummond]

Can you imagine the outcry if HDE was in charge?

It's worse than amateur.

If I'm not mistaken, the players have been wearing them with FXPro underneath the lion. So maybe when the current batch has sold out they'll come in with FXPro plastered on them.

[Dave Cooper please]

I can't understand why this boils so many people's piss.

It's a shirt FFS. And this thing about "shelf life". Does the shirt disintegrate after 9 months?

In fact, save your money and buy it for £15 in 9 months time. Or won't that be "fashionable"?

Now I can understand this viewpoint, but for many fans (fans with cash remember), wearing the new shirt to the first games of the season is, if not vitally important, then desirable.

It seems that in our haste to have Nike as our kit supplier, which seemed a great idea at the time I agree, we have become somewhat hostages to fortune. We are now getting shit designs behind any reasonable timescale.
Another reason to doubt the business acumen of our board? Possibly.

This is poor, but I imagine the commercial department at the club are really taking it today. We haven't been very good in this area at all have we? If this is a Nike issue then we really shoud consider another supplier. As a fan you should be able to wear the kit for the first game, and better still a few weeks prior.

[The Adventurer]

If you order the home shirt from very.com does it mean you can have it without the sponsors name on it?? <snigger> I know,I know,wishful thinking on my part!!

Seriously though a complete PR disaster by the Villa!!

[junxs]

The only way the club can rectify this, in my view, is to announce that the kit will be for 2 years.

Somehow doubt that, but we could see it being the least sold kit for couple of decades otherwise. Especially with no signings that normally make people rush out and buy one.

[andyh]

This is good news for me.
I don't like the rehashed Lens kit anyway, but habit and misguided loyalty probably would have made me buy it.
Now that the season will be a month old and I'll have got into the habit of alternative matchday attire, I think I'll be able to fight the urge to buy it.

Frequent kit changes annoys the Premier League

Another moan...

Doesn't annoy me in the slightest, they can have a new kit every match so long as it keeps the price of the match tickets down.

No-one has to buy them and, kids aside, only the deluded think they look 'quality' in the latest kit, give me a retro shirt any day of the week.

As for talk of this being a 'pr disaster' pleeeeeeeeeeeeeease - do me a favour!

From memory yes.

I popped down on Friday and they definately had a purple top in. They also had the new tracksuit top in with the big lion on it which looked good.

On another notes about the shirt cock, I had gone down to get tickets for Valencia, The Europa game and West ham. I could only get the valencia tickets as the club havent received the new paper tickets with the new sponsor on yet - so the other tickets will be posted out.

I mean FFS how hard could it be to buy some tickets
