geronimoo 1,474 Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Why don't they just keep the current strip and we can get an extra bit of wear out of them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RFC Eagle 4,888 Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Not going to happen but thanks for bringing back some memories. I've got an old blue Vandanel top from the '90s and they sponsored the Isthmian Leage Cup when my home town team won it in '98. Being fair the kits aren't bad quality wise but I think some just look at the manufacturers name and dismiss it without knowing anything about the kit..I think your mate, being in Leighton, must still be living in the last century (like the rest of the town)! Either that or he's confused by them supplying kit for Bessingby Park Rangers! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForeverBlue_Since91 2,895 Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Why don't they just keep the current strip and we can get an extra bit of wear out of them.Nothing to do with the strip it's to do with who's making it. Umbro deal runs out at the end of the season and the Tennent's deal runs out aswell i think Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue and True 311 Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Look it doesnt matter what the name/brand is.The strips will be made by 14 year old kids somewhere in Asia.As they are for all major and minor brands.The actual product quality would be much the same.The whole point of this is not simply about the football strip worn by the team but all the add on gear ie leisure wear.By having a Puma or Nike would be of far more interest and be far more profitable than a lesser known brand.

TheOriginalHobo 34 Posted February 26, 2013 Share Posted February 26, 2013 Not really if the kits apparently fall to bits everyone sticking for us having a small time kit maker will feel like a right fud when its announced and probably isn't even a small name anyway Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
