New Kit/Sponsor

[Des Little]

Will we be releasing Savo bandanas to relive the summer of '95?

[ktvillan]

It's the same every year..

I don't like the colour
I don't like the design
I don't like the away kit
I don't like the sponsor
I don't like the badge

If you like it buy it. If you don't then don't buy it.

It's a kit they wear it Match day as long as they win games they can wear a bin bag for all I care

I know what you mean however sponsor,  away kit and to an extent design are transitory and relatively unimportant.  But our colours and badges are more a matter of history and tradition, they are symbolic of the club.   I'll  admit that I don't really care that much about the badge, although I do prefer the pre-70s or 70s versions to what we have now.    I certainly don't give a toss whether the shirt has a collar or not, or what the sponsor logo looks like,  and the away strip can be purple with orange spots for all I care.  But I do like to see a traditional claret body / light blue sleeves for the home kit.   I just think us wearing purple is the equivalent of ManYoo or the 'The Mighty Reds YNWA' edging their home strip towards pink or maroon.

Picture of Terry shows Recon on the back of the kit. So maybe there is a back shirt sponsor.

We just need to fucking get out of this tin pot division. They put sponsors on the back of the kits yet is one of the worst marketed leagues in the world. Especially given the money associated with promotion. If they had better coverage domestically and internationally they wouldn't have to do naff things like back sponsors.

This "worst marketed league" is the fifth richest in Europe.

I'd imagine the Premier League would love to have top flight kits plastered in sponsors. The biggest of the lot, Brand FC  of Salford would be there at the forefront with their official Noodle partner under Rooney's chin.

Yanited would have the kit looking like a French cyclist's ensemble, given half a chance.

And it could be so much more. Look how hard it was to even find coverage of games last season. By radio let alone TV. No real coverage for fans abroad. It reminds of pre-PL days in the First Division. The Premier League, for all of the things some fans don't like about it expanded the game enormously. Obviously I'm not suggesting the Championship could do the same simply because it isn't the top league in the country but it could do a lot more to broaden its appeal.

[eamonn]

Which second-tier in any country has any sort of broad appeal though?

[cdbearsfan]

The one we are in.

The Championship is easily the biggest second tier in the World. Respectfully, I'm not sure what TV is on about in this instance.

What I'm on about is that it has the potential given how big the PL prize is to make itself more accessible. I made this point above that look how hard it was to find games to follow last season, even by radio. In 2017 it should not be that hard and when it is people disengage. The Football League management should be doing more to make the games easier to see much like the PL has done.

I doubt there's anything they haven't tried but I'm sure they'd welcome your input.

When many fans are watching through grainy internet streams, catching the Norwich or Blues games through fans cell phones I'm sure there's lots they can still try to do to make the games more accessible. Do you think that's acceptable? If they want to grow the league then find ways to allow more people to experience it. I live in Canada. There's lots of fans of teams not in the PL. We'd like to watch them too. And when we are able to get games others are in bars watching too who get exposed to it.

Gosh. I bet they've never thought of that.
