New Kits 2018/19

I’m not really a shirt buyer so I’m less interested than some but how hard can it be to produce a football kit in club colours that the fans are happy with. I guess the whole process would be a whole lot easier if the club and Nike talked to the fans. The present kits are fine to be fair but the year befores were absolutely embarrassing. I know we all want to blame Nike but other clubs have Nike as their kit manufacturer and don’t seem to have to put up with the wrong colour shorts and the like - so questions have to be asked about the people who interface with Nike at the club.
 
Fwiw, the club aren't happy with Nike at all. They actually told us we'd have unique shirts when we signed up. All this stuff about us being a priority... which turned out to be bollocks. Then they've delivered all the kits late with no time for changes, conveniently. They're ridiculously hard to work with apparently. I suspect Puma will really want to impress so it should be much better. Fuck Nike man.

It's nice to know the club dislike them too.

Do you know if that latest Footyheadlines one is close to, if not on, the mark?

will the club be prepared to sit down with fans over the summer and actually discuss what we're going to do going forward under a new manufacturer to ensure we get a consistent identity?

Our top class negotiation team should have had this stuff written down in the contract.... pretty basic really.

That’s fine and good to know. Thanks for sharing. However, we’ve been burned more than once with Nike so some of the wank ideas must have been ok’d by the club.

I have no idea. Your guess is as good as mine.
