New Kit thread 2019/20

I understand now it’s the paddy power save our shirt campaign, but will the prices be lower

Nope £45 for an adult top.

Just thinking out loud, I think a charity sponsor in the form of what we have had is better than no sponsor? Don't want to be contrary for the sake of it but it's not like we had a garish grim corporation who used us as our commercial puppets before (now) did we?

There is a sponsor, it's Paddy Power. They are specifically paying us to not have a sponsor on the front so that they can use us for their 'save our shirt' campaign, they wouldn't be paying us if we stuck a charity on the front.

The little neck triangles look horrendous. Like pretend collars.

 

[happydays]

Not even wearing it tomm for millwall game maybe scared if Wont last too long

 

[Shrimper]

im guessing that paddy power are paying for them... meaning that the club is saving money on them and earning money from sales?

There won't be many sales

 

[Crawliano]

Look on the bright side, at least the little letters can only fall off and the main sponsor logo can't crack and go **** any more

 

[Parold]

£30 for the badge

 

[Shrimper]

If it was £20 then fair dos. But £45 is an insult.

I have no hope for the away now, surprise me Southend!

I am not thinking in the financial sense I mean in terms of physical appearance. I am guessing the logic Paddy Power is peddling is that shirts look better without sponsors, in this instance it shows the shirt up to be lacking in much creative flair and, I think, an onshirt sponsor like we had last year might actually have improved this.
Interesting to see that Paddy Power aren't doing side of pitch hoardings, interview backdrops too, as well as leaving the shirts blank.

I like the back but that's all I like. Happy they haven't got a sponsor but it's just so boring. Got all the space in the front and done nothing with it. Very uninspired

I just get a training top , I hope paddy power are covering the loss in earnings

 

[MK Shrimper]

It's alright.

Thought you said it was confirmed there would be a sponsor.

wear it back to front?

 

[AustScullyPriorPowell]

Was going to buy 3 for our holiday, not going to spend a penny on that sh*t

Does Martin read this forum, it's the same feedback year in year out

Is he being stubborn or something and refusing to change, this ground hog process is saving me £ each year and I know others feel the same, perhaps shirt £ is not important to him!!

I wonder if Paddy Power told us not to put anything there, with the 'custom element' the club kept going on about sticking it front and center on the shirt surely would have been ideal.

 

[Medway Blue]

It’s very underwhelming. It’s a training kit. And the fan is being charged £45 for a £15 top with a badge seen on.

When I think of all the things they could have done with that kit. Portsmouth’s is the same design but it looks infinitely better.

 

[Southminster Shrimper]

Still better then Col U
