We got the third worst points tally in Premier League history last season. The last thing we should be doing is letting an Irish betting company make a mockery of us with a joke sponsorship announcement followed by a total joke of a kit launch. Can we not just concentrate on getting back to winning some football matches!?

Looks like Rochdale are in on it too judging by what they’re wearing

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. Oh my god.. There is no hope for you my friend.. You dont believe the evidence of your own eyes??

You dont believe the evidence of your own eyes?? I don't doubt that Town are actually playing in that kit tonight! What I doubt is that it's the kit that will be used in competive matches. I more than doubt it, I know it!

Just need the players to do their job.

if I was the marketing strategist responsible for the unveiling, I'd have the rest of the squad (those that don't play) wearing the real kit hidden under their training tops. At the final whistle they reveal the real kit to the fans that went to watch and hand the joke shirts out to some of the punters.

As football supporters we would all encourage a player to take a shot on when they have the opportunity.
The club have taken the shot on and whether we like the outcome or not they should be supported by us for not bottling it and going for the sideways pass that is having Betty's Baps as our shirt sponsor.
I sometimes think that people enjoy finding fault. Surely not.

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. Its pissed off sections of the ACTUAL fanbase, i'd say thats worse PR than folk who dont support us hearing our name (which they already have after 2 years of PL football) As i've said in match thread....i thought it was just a bit shite when it was on twitter, but to actually wear it is a bit of a joke. It's almost insulting to our players (who we should be trying to keep happy) and to be honest so is it to Rochdale's....for us to be pulling a 'stunt' when we are supposed to be preparing Anyone who says "any publicity is good publicity" doesnt know what they are talking about becasue its simply not true. Just look at blackburn with the Venky's chicken, that went viral and people still think they are a joke to this day (including pro players)

Remember Crystal Palace? They wore a similar crappy shirt some seasons ago. All the players looked as if they were taking part in a pageant.
Always thought the River Plate and Peru kits with the sash looked smart,,
And Man City's old away kit

Mission Statement The Club's strategy is unchanged from the start of the ‘New Era’ "…. working together to be a successful, sustainable and financially viable Football Club, that we can all take pride in…." The Club’s 10 values will be at the heart of everything it does: - Honesty - It will be fair, truthful and morally upright - Integrity - It will be steadfast and adhere to high principles and professional standards - Trust - It will give people confidence in the good qualities of the Club, especially fairness, honour and ability - Commitment - It will be devoted and dedicated to the Club, the players, the fans and its Community - Pride - It will recognise the importance of all the Club efforts and achievements; that have made Yorkshire and our Club great - Respect - It will have high regard, recognition and appreciation for everyone we deal with - Quality - It will strive to have the highest standards we can in everything undertaken by the Club - Value - It will provide value for money - Success - It will be driven and focused on achieving individual, collective and Club success - Character - It will be courageous, straight talking and entrepreneurial together with all its other qualities and values that is what will make Huddersfield Town distinctive From its mission statement and values, the Club makes a 10-point pledge to its supporters, people and community to be: - Always Sincere, Never Pretentious - Always Positive, Never Downhearted - Always Personal, Never Condescending - Always Striving, Never Pushy - Always Straight Talking, Never Lecturing - Always Leading, Never Dictating - Always Confident, Never Arrogant - Always Inspiring, Never Depressing - Always Honest, Never Deceitful - Always HTAFC, Never Self-Interested I’m more amazed that a club would put that kind of thing out when endorsing (going above and beyond that at the minute) a gambling company. Fair enough I know it’s the world that we live in but it still stinks to me, It’s not your casual stick a fiver on an acca these guys are pursuing.

Sorry didnt mean that people who didnt mind it werent actual fans, i meant it's trading annoying sections of town fans for overall reach And fair enough about agreeing to disagree
