Kit Suppliers for next Season

[Normandy seagull]

Please can we change to Joma or Nike as both my lycra palookaville and Maroon away shirts are looking battered and nearly as bad as Darius Henderson's V Leeds. Does anyone else feel its time for a change.

 

[Wozza]

Yeah, I'm sure Nike would be well up for it.

 

[1066gull]

I would never buy Nike.

 

[tinx]

I would never buy Nike.

Er Why not?

I dread to ask but it has to be done

 

[Rougvie]

Yeah, I'm sure Nike would be well up for it.

Actually you never know.

Nike have a franchise agreement with a company up in Gateshead (cant remember the name of it) and that company supply kits to Aberdeen and 7 or 8 Div 1 and 2 clubs.

OK, you are not being 'sponsered' by Nike, but the clubs actually make a lot more on the shirts because the mark up is much greater, Aberdeen probably sell about 20,000 shirts a season and as a direct result of doing the franchise deal, had £75,000 more profit on shirt sales that went directly into the playing budget.

Oh, and the shirts are properly sized and are good quality.

I believe will still have at least a year to run or our deal with Errea

 

[Sandbag]

errea is wank, the kits are poorly made, most of the seems fall apart after a couple of wears, the sponsor must be carefully moved to avoid it peeling and they seem to be shit a providing a suitable number of replica shirts when a new one is launched.

BRING BACK ADMIRAL!

 

[Gully]

I have bought and worn sports kit and replica shirts from pretty much every company over the years, have to say that the quality and durability from Nike clothing is just about the best. Alternatively maybe we could see if North Face or Spray Way are interested in diversifying into the football market if people want to buy something that will last for years.

 

[Del Boy]

Don't mind too much who makes it!!! But I will NOT buy another kit until they sort out the 'SKINT' logo on the front which basically ruins the kit after a couple of washes, the donatello's logho on the back also falls off after a couple of washes!!

 

[perth seagull]

Joma's shirts look terrible, in my humble opinion they're the worst kit supplier of all!

 

[D'Angelo Saxon]

Do Middlesborough fans have as much trouble with their Errea kits as us?

 

[Rougvie]

Do Middlesborough fans have as much trouble with their Errea kits as us?

Dunno.

But I bet RUSHDEN dont get many complaints as they only have about 7 fans

 

[ditchy]

nO BECUASE THEY HAVE THE BETTER QUALITY ERREA KIT AS DO A NUMBER OF OTHER CLUBS INCLUDING STOKE AND EVEN WEYMOUTH !!
sorry caps locks

 

[Wilka]

Although I don't really want it to be Nike as they will be made in some sweat shop in India they do make Southends kits so I don't see why they wouldn't do ours if we asked!

Money is money for them at the end of the day!

 

[zefarelly]

I think given recent performances and the current situation we'd be lucky to get George at Asda to make our kit

Bukta please . . .or adidas

sponsored bt Harveys

 

[Brighton Breezy]

Get LONSDALE kit.

Saying that. that isnt the worst suggestion in the world !

 

[Gully]

Lonsdale is fine, just don't try wearing it in the Netherlands if you want to get into pubs/clubs/bars as it is banned due to it being the clothing choice of the far right.

 

[Brighton Breezy]

We should have the MODtastic Lonsdale sponsored by Harveys.

That would be PROPER Sussex...
