There are firms out there which offer this, as you no doubt know. The negative aspect for clubs in selling historic kits so I'm told, is that it is likely to reduce the numbers of each season's new shirts, as people like to wear their favourite historic/heritage shirts. I’m not aware of that...can you share a link?? I’ve seen “historic kits from eras before sponsorship” being sold. But...I want an Ecru and Jade kit without the Panasonic logo...or the Star Trek style kit without RadianB so it would look like this. Are you saying such a thing is available? I get what you mean. Having had a quick look, it appears that the more recent repro shirts have the sponsors on, unlike the unadorned ones from the cotton, classic shirt era. Perhaps there is a copyright, or whatever the equivalent is in the clothing world, issue with this.

Agree with you on the away kits. The navy one is smart but does look a bit like a training top. For the third kit, a blank canvas with no sponsor to design around could've brought us a classic garish mess of a kit, that we could sell out of. Should've put the zebra stripes off that forest green shirt on! Go big or go home. I guess a point with all three kits is that the kits were finalised long before the sponsor was on board. Football kits aren’t created as integrated designs in conjunction with a shirt sponsor....football clubs agree designs, and the sponsor follows. Hence why it’s often the shop staff heat applying transfers to the kit. I do wonder if there’s a market for new issues of historic kits but without the sponsors. I think town did a sponsor free version of the electric hooped shirt a few years back.

Some kits are certainly created with integrated sponsors as part of their design,, I have a couple myself,,
Shop staff ironing sponsors on is so naff,, Its non league.

Which Town kits have sponsor as part of the kit, rather than stuck on heat transferred or cotton patch? I guess it’s more likely from the second year on a multi season deal.

They really don’t have anything better to do? Set of bloody jobsworths. What about the clubs that are breaking ffp rules?

Has anyone explained why the referees allowed us to take to the field in kit that doesn’t meet the regulations??

When you look at the pictures from the game most of the players had the real shirts on underneath. I think they fully expected the ref to tell them to change and the "reveal" would have been on the pitch. Think someone even suggested this would happen before the game.

Tell the FA to take any fine out of our ticket refunds from the Blackpool fiasco!

TBF I think that either the fine should be substantial, or there should be another form of punishment handed out. I reckon the club and PP knew what they were doing was breaking the rules (it didn’t take long for the folk on here to do a cursory check when the shirt was “revealed.”) If the punishment is just a small fine and PP gladly pay it, what sort of precedent does that set? That you can knowingly break rules as long as you buy your way out of them?

So the league records of teams "unsponsored" by Paddy Power this season
Town - PL4, W0, D1, L3 Southend - PL4, W0, D0, L4 Newport - PL4, W1, D3, L0 Motherwell - PL2, W0, D1, L1
Total PL 14, W1, D5, L8
Not a great success so far for Paddy

To have the 6th highest selling shirt is some achievement. Seeing as the Mail made a massive deal about the sash kit and how it wouldn’t have happened under Dean Hoyle, some credit for this has to go to Phil Hodgkinson. That and sacking Siewert within 3 league games means he’s got two things right so far.

Just a thought, When it comes to finding our next sponsor, we are going to be seen as a club who didn’t want a name on their shirt. How are we going to work around that?

It was the sixth most searched for online due to the publicity stunt/fake kit nonsense. That's all. If it converted into actual sales, that would be pretty impressive!

Still, it’s a popular shirt and we’ve seen some absolute awful kits recently. Point still stands - one up for Phil. Now he just has to get a manager that can build a team that can be popular too.
