But on this occasion a sense of proportion is the only casualty.

In the grand scheme of things it is no big deal. I would rather have had a cool sponsor like "Yorkshire Bitter" or "Spearmint Rhino" but as they say...there is no such thing as bad publicity. We are small time...no matter what anyone thinks. As long as the players give 100% every match they could play on tutu's for me.

It’s a light hearted PR exercise, I can’t see how as a lifelong supporter I, or a club, should be in anyway offended or upset. Fair enough if you don’t like it but I can’t see how it’s offensive? We get publicity, carry on like this and this no doubt helps massively with future commercial deals. We normally have a bog standard, boring, launch of the kit, on here it’s loved or hated (no change there then) and no one else notices or cares. At least today people will know and so our exposure is better than it would have been, and we can have a love/hate launch followed by love/hate the real kit (I suspect like the one on the hangers without the ironed on sash).

Do the club think we , as fans, didn't face enough ridicule and scorn over the past 12 months or something? Do Sean jarvis and Hodgkinson now have meetings to think of new ways of making fans of other clubs laugh at us? Hopefully this is all bogus, but whether it is or isn;t, what a clusterfuck of an idea it is to choose to make us a laughing stock, after one of the toughest seasons weve had watching our team. totally agree Anyone proclaiming it 'a stroke of genius' must be easily pleased. it's just shit 'banter' by a shithouse company at the expense of the clubs image. Surely the only people who have enjoyed this stunt is paddy power and other teams fans It provides great publicity for both businesses; Town and PP It's funny. I saw it and openly said 'holy fuck'. My wife immediately thought someone had died. Then immediately I thought 'hang on a second....'. Why can't we like it, it's a good wind up and the fact there's 15 pages discussing it already shows it's a great marketing stunt. this will have a positive impact on sales of the real shirt.

I can only hope that with it being a friendly, the sponsor logo size reg thing doesn't apply and that for the league season it's.......more normal

I don't like the shirt but people are too sensitive.

Still keeping up the pretence (if it is) Of course it is! They'll play the friendly in it as that'll we a loophole to the sponsorship rules. Great strategy in the build up to the release.

Players are in correct numbers as per last season but no names on shirts. Coz you wouldn't bother if they were a joke

Ive got a horrible feeling we'll be the club that causes sponsorship deals to change of for shirts of English clubs. It could open the floor gates that we can never go back on and football shirts will just be full of sponsors on every inch.

Personally I think its a crap stategy. PH said that the new kit would be unvieled tonight and we already have a video on Twitter of the fans at the game venting their distaste at it. Its gone way behond a joke now!

If there was an annual league table of most tinpot clubs we'd be the most fucking successful.

The fecking pictures of the team wearing the "fake" kit at rochdale I can see that. It's inspired promotion of Town and PP before the ACTUAL REAL kit launch. I promise you.
