    What would I be looking at that for

    Fair enough. I saw it being ridiculed in the thread about them, he was saying he was one of the best keepers in the world simply due to signing for the scum. Deluded.

    It's a standard Adidas template, and is the same as the sheep's.

    I can understand some fans not caring.

    Where do we actually go from here? They have completely fucked this. It’s all well and good having a laugh about certain things but it’s now dragging our club through the mud...again. 

     I'm guessing, but I don't think it's going to help contacting Castore :lol:

    I think if enough fans contact the club they'll have to investigate it, clarify the situation, and deal with Castore, they might also just ignore it.

    Bit off topic but I bought the last Puma kit we released in the pro top version because the normal replicas were sold out everywhere. Can't say I'd ever recommend them, I'd consider myself to have a reasonably slim build and still felt like that fucker was painted on when I wore it. All sorts of mental rubber elements inside it as well that made it cling to you even more. Alright for wearing to fives etc but definitely not something comfortable enough to wear casually.

    So there's a bit more to the pro kits than first thought

    Cue everyone who has a  home top to start checking for bits of rubber inside it :lol:

    They’re normally double the price and the strips the players wear on the field, usually tighter fitting more lightweight and made from much better material 

    Always wondered why I felt weighed down when I pulled on a Rangers top, how lightweight does a T-shirt need to be? :lol:

    Reminds me of the fat cunts that buy the lightest bicycle they can, and take bits off to make it even lighter.

    Aye, but you're a fat cunt, isn't it better to take a few kgs off your arse first?

    I've thought about buying a pro top in the past, but don't think I could stretch a pro top over ma tits

    One minor detail. 
     

    surely if they are trying to pretend there was a pro n non pro top....there would be a price difference?

    Or, are they trying to push the whole we accidentally sent out a higher quality more expensive top to fans as a cover for producing lower than the original fan quality kit?

    And now imagine the units cost price, it’s probably going to be under £15. 

    Maybe even less when you consider where they're being manufactured.

    However, when you take into account the possible amount of returns along with the cost of P&P it could turn out to be quite a sizeable amount of cash

    It's not just one or two

    Some of the chat on here about the quality and texture of the gear is comical in hindsight 🤣

    Up there with the cunt from last year who used the word ‘decadent’ in a thread. 

    Who's to say the people who received the tops originally received a poor product?

    It's possible they manufactured the first few thousand units and everything was going to plan, suddenly saw how crazy demand was getting, outsourced labour to keep up with demand and those other companies didn't adhere to the quality standards but sent out the kit anyway. 

    Not saying that's what's happened but it sounds reasonable.

    If that is the case then a little heads up would've been appropriate with an apology and a free swap at no cost if you want it. To find out from supporters with no word from the club or Castore is just very bad customer service.

    Imagine how many units they'd potentially have to swap out

    If it turns out the club changed manufacturers due to the lack of quality of the product and the determination to keep fans happy then there will be a few people needing to say sorry to castore.

    Would the club not receive samples very early on before Castore would have been given the go-ahead?

    Sorry boys and girls, I tried to tidy the thread but it was a mess. 

    Hopefully this one stays more on track. 

    Apologies for the lost of all the previous posts. 

    :lol:

    A lot of those posts were truly thought-provoking

    Surely Aberdeen's game will be getting postponed then...can see this is going to get messy throughout the season, with players testing positive, players having to quarantine...fixture pile ups etc etc 🙈

    I suggested we should play less  games against each other early on. It seemed to be a sensible option given the uncertainty. 

    Any unused space in the season could then be used up with friendlies, which would also keep a reasonable amount of money coming in the door.

    These are very strange times and no solution is going to fit 100%

    I think it's a bit stupid to be carrying on with the season as if nothing's changed, which looks like what is happening.

    We leave ourselves open to the season, again, being ended prematurely - and you can be sure it will be to the benefit of one team.
