1960maaan Posted June 12 Share Posted June 12 2 hours ago, exAtyeoMax said: not necessarily. As other people have said, other clubs managed to continue with Hummel. Everton were with a different supplier I believe , so they were different and not affected. here is something that WSM Seagull posted on the other thread. Coventry found a solution which included signing up the the new Hummel UK distributor which has essentially just reformed as Pro Sports or something. Same staff etc. The same staff that messed us and all the other clubs around. Their solution is that their fans can't buy kits until after the 3rd game of the season and their kits this season are not bespoke and are just templates. **************** Then there is Wycombe . Southampton had stock and so moved on to Sports Pro for supply when they were promised no break down in supply. Apart from Southampton , who seem to have had kits stock piled , no one found it a seamless change to Sports Pro. It wasn't as straight forward as next Cab off the rank. I was hoping that there would be an upturn in quality, design and build , or we would move on to another Kit manufacturer . Looks like that may not be until after next season. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Midlands Robin Posted June 12 Share Posted June 12 (edited) Since every club now has three sets of strip, I'd be more than happy with the standard for most of our history, Red shirts, White Shorts home and White shirts, Black shorts away. The third kit though should be something absolutely bonkers that gets people talking. Last year's yellow and green clip art special reached a new low in City kit that I hope we never reach again. Let's have a bit of fun with the third kit. Edited June 12 by Midlands Robin 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's have a bit of fun with the third kit. Think they have been pretty successful making the keeper kits something a bit different over past few seasons that people are starting to buy more too. I know people dislike o'neills but they do seem better than the rest at giving their clubs free reign to do what they like, for someone like JL who has websites calling him a creative and a full year to prepare he should be able to deliver something bonkers but good, whether he pulls it off or not we will see. This o'neills kit made me laugh although can't see a tribute to first bus company being a winner before Jon gets any ideas...

It's almost as if the person with the crayons has more influence than is healthy and that a company with over 100 years of continuous trade might be better left to get on with it, rather than design by committee. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
