Cadbury on the home kit, Kraft on the away kit & a Creme Egg special leading up to Easter.  With blue socks, & most importantly for me bring a superstitious type blue change shorts too - not claret.

You read it here first.

GK, what is the liklihood of having the new  home and away shirts on sale during the summer months this year...or is the sponsor talks likely to mess that up now ?

General,

any chance the shirts could be on display in our last home game against Liverpool to drum up sales? At the very least, please ensure the home kit's on sale by June 6th (my birthday)!

What I want to know is how come Fulham and ourselves were on the same amount, I would have thought we were 4 or 5 times as big a club as they are. Especially when you consider that negotiations would have taken place after 2 successive 6th place finishes and while we were fighting for a champions league spot!

Either we have terrible negotiators or Fulham have extremely good ones!

The checks are here to stay, look at the programme, season tickets, internal branding in the ground. It's part of the branding by the looks of things.

The lack of sponsor signed up now must be a concern after what happened this season. Our value has dropped significantly with the likelihood of no European Football and general poor performances on the pitch, so they won't get anywhere near £3.5m this year.

Oh and the roof top ad for at Craven Cottage is probably worth £1-2m per year in media value.

Are we allowed to change them to light blue mid-season?

We had blue socks against Sunderland away this season. Got to agree that looks much better.

 think you'll find that your opinion is pathetic. We're not in control pf anything that goes wrong. Our best players, our manager, our commercial agreements with sponsors... Whatever we do is great and if it isn't great then that's someone else's fault and there was nothing we could do about it anyway.

i am not sure how they can renege on a contract, unless there is a clause added that allows them to (which has to be the case, considering they have done)... in which case, give whoever agreed to such a clause a slap on the wrist...

although from an aesthetic perspective, i am delighted...  but only if those god awful chequered things are also removed... appalling bit of design that looks like the junior just found the align tool and the creatvie director didnt care enough to give them a punch in the face for being fucking useless....

General,
What do you think was behind the comment that they had forged a better relationship with Fulham?
Sorry-wrong thread. :-[
