Mercifully we're back round to the time of year where clubs are starting to release their kits for next season. Bournemouth also have their shirts provided by Umbro, shared the same template as us last season, and are wearing their ones for next season this weekend. Wouldn't be particularly happy with a blue and white version of that to be honest.
Another thing I've noticed is that although Town are contracted to 4 years with Umbro, we've been removed from the 'Clubs' tab of the Umbro website. Wonder if that holds any significance? Anyway, cue the 'I think the new shirt will be blue and white stripes' comments.

I think a blue and white version of that would be OK. I know that there is normally a sale at the end of the season, but this year's seems very long and started early. I wonder if a change of manufacturer is on the cards.

Itโs also because thereโs a shit dog on the shirts.

Donโt doubt that for a second. Second season in the Prem. Iโd say weโd have sold even more if we hadnโt sold our soul to the Chinese shit dog. Plenty of folk I know wonโt touch it.

The Bournemouth one in our colours will be just fine but I wonder if we qualify to have the badges embroided on this time rather than tacky stickers.
Also be nice if they can manage to get it out before ppl go on holiday for a change, may avoid having to give them away at the end of the season.

I'm sure we could've had the badge embroidered this time. I think that a manufacturer must put options to the club, obviously the 'sticker' one will have cut costs vs an embroidered one, and the club decided to go for that option. It was a massive mistake though as it totally cheapens the Badge when they should've been doing all they could to get fans to like it. I think its a fantastic design, and think it would look amazing embroidered. Its a shame they messed it up.

Bit of an uninspiring top but the badge looks loads better. Think they have only recently released that, so maybe they've realised the sticker doesn't work and that's what they will go with next season? Hope so anyway.

What about the stronger stuff the kids used to line up to have in the market hall,,, ? Pop with a kick,, Like a cross between speed/cocaine and heroin,,,
Pretty sure I was only allowed to have it on the one occasion, Never allowed it again.

Must have cost the club and/or Umbro a fortune with the amount that have been returned, one way to get rid of the surplus I suppose. I'm guessing maybe the dog idea was all a bit last minute therefore had to be done a certain way or maybe it was just penny pinching.

Love the Ben Shaws, don't like the Dixons but I can't stand their ice cream either Every single one of those shirts is utter garbage except the Ben Shaws one! Agree on Dixonโs. And I know itโs an institution for some reason, but Iโll throw in Marstonโs horrible oily chicken. Went once, was tasteless muck, didnโt believe it could be so bad given how much folk rave over it, went back, confirmed my opinion!

When they were formed, I bought a Yorkshire Football shirt, as I liked the design. They included my name and number, and it was all incorporated into the material. No iron on or embroider. Washed at least once a month over the last two years, and no problem. Cost ยฃ35, and was made by a company with the fab name of godzone sports.
If they can make such a high quality product at such a low price, and still make a profit, how come Town canโt?

Ben Shaws are sponsoring the away kit. If we were going with keeping things local ("this is a local kit for local people. We'll have no trouble here") then it needs to be made by Mitre or Beaver Sports...
