Don't understand why a pub team like the sheep get a deal with Adidas while we are stuck with embarrassing hummel/puma 

They don't. It's a teamwear deal iirc. Adidas probably aren't even aware of the fact Aberdeen Wear their product

99% they’ve done this so when next seasons retail deal goes to court they can say they publicly invited anybody to tender... and SD can’t say they weren’t offered. 

Then again, what now happens with Hummel & Elite... who knows. 

Will be years before it’s all sorted one way or another 

Agree with this.

Only other thing that crosses my mind is that given the Liverpool outcome if we signed directly with a large manufacturer or someone like Fanatics (don't laugh) that could give us a wider audience than the SD 'partnership' it may give us an out of that particular debacle. 

Notwithstanding the fanciful notion of somebody like Fanatics wanting to deal with us James Blair/and or the other legal masterminds that did the due diligence on the current deal should be hunted.

Each time we have an announcement from our board I feel just a liitle more embarrassed.

When has any club ever went public with an official announcement that it would be nice to have a deal with a sports manufacturer. No doubt six months from now we will be in another legal battle probably with Hummel this time.

Hopefully we send our high profile exec team of Andrew Dickson, Stewart Robertson and James Blair to meet potential retailers lawyers..

We’ll end up paying them 3 million over 3 years.

And we'll be wearing Slazenger bibs or Lonsdale vests when we kick off the new season!
