Having done some, albeit rough math, the sponsor could just be okay with FA regulations But only on Pritch's kit

I like the kit and I will be disappointed if we don't play Derby in it. I guess it must be my flamboyant side.

This IS the real kit. Best get used to it folks! 😊🤭🤔

It could be the real shirt but if it is its a massive cock up. They wont sell many and it certainly looks to be oversized in terms of what is allowed for sponsors. Sounds like the authorities have already been in touch so they are either going to have to move quickly to change the kit or if it was always a stunt then they need to make that public today and stop the madness.

You can’t blow £100 a time. You can't now I know you can’t that was my point.

Did the HTSA spokesperson not confirm this to be a PR stunt earlier??

I know you can’t that was my point. And my point was the bookies fought it tooth and nail. Trying to bribe the government with the threat of job losses etc

You will have to repeat your post every 15 mins for the next 24 hours for it to sink in with some.

Trying to bribe the government with the threat of job losses etc How many businesses would accept a large income loss without trying to stop it really. I don’t play FOBTs but I also don’t class that them pointing out 100s of jobs will be lost is a bribe when it’s the reality.

It wasnt a threat Like with most closures on the high street, isn't this more to do with their online presence and the ever increasing number of new online betting firms offering no end of enticing offers? Its miles easier to gamble on line than trundle down to the bookies.

My instinctive reaction is that it looks way more prominent than they generally do (it's almost side seam to side seam, as well as being tall) and I can't find too many even getting towards that size looking at other Football League kits. It'd be handy if the FA guidebook PDF showed a good example of the maximum you can get away with along with the actual shirt dimensions for perspective but it doesn't seem to. Luton's might not be a bad comparison, one of the bulkier ones I can find but still clearly a fair bit smaller:
And yeah, I'm also struggling to get my head around the fact that I'm debating the size of a hypothetical sponsor on a maybe not real kit that's also been brutally rearranged in Photoshop.
