However it was made clear it would be the same strips again. Was it new sponsor or new sponsorship deal? If it was the latter, it's just a case of semantics more than anything Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
William Scott 24 Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 It might be a good idea to keep the kits rolling on for a few more seasons. That way everyone can buy the current kit as one off but Sports Direct would lose out because a new kit isn't being released every season. If there's no new kits to release then shirt sales in SD will plummet and hopefully we can twist their hand to give us a better deal. Then again it's probably more complex than that and we're probably legally obliged to release a new kit every season. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

With Heart and Hand 8,949 Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 Why do folk keep suggesting we employ some scheme that will shaft SD out of money? That's not how these things work and would get us sued The only way this deal will be fixed is if King grows up and deals with Ashley Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supersonic 4,654 Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 Jellybeans on twitter about an hour ago: "You would think player announcements are getting held off for a strip launch or something..."

PRW. 5,631 Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 Probably been mentioned but wonder why 32Red would renew the deal when the fans aren't buying strips? Couldn't be because fans will be able to buy strips again soon, would it? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PRW. 5,631 Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 Also was said on FF the other day that 32red deal would be announced and we'd have a different sponsor for the shorts and back of the top. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
brazz1972 397 Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 Maybe we'll keep the home top but launch a new Orange away kit, board give the go ahead to fans who have been boycotting and we sell hundreds of thousands. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
