agreed.
disappointed it is straight out of the teamwear catalogue again but all in all its a decent shirt and much enjoyable to look at than the other adidas attempt

Is this Billington idiot a actual SCFC supporter, or just some numpty employee?
I am pretty sure he worked for Adidas before Stoke and he made more money from the deal himself, (commission) and that is why we went with Adidas and pulled out of the Umbro deal at the last minute. That I was told by someone who works at the club.

Don't like the stitching panel between the Adidas badge and our badge. The blue colours work quite well together though. I won't be purchasing it though, I'll save my cash. Not buying any this season Knowlesey?

Get Adidas out, they can shove their ident-kits up their German sausage munching arses.

Could be worse The Adidas logo is level with the club badge on this one so it's obviously not mandatory for it to be above the club crest. Perhaps if you are Premier League champions then you carry a little more clout with the supplier !?

First impressions are that it isn't too bad at all - certainly better than the home abomination.
Don't think it is as nice as last seasons - or indeed the navy one we had during our promotion season. Much better than the yellow monstrosity though!

Why do I get the feeling we are going to have cheap templates every year as long as we are with Adidas?

Makes for an interesting, if not funny read, that; " A creative commercial marketer"- Very creative taking back handers for template shirts. " embraces the Chairman’s vision to make the Club the best at everything it does through building brand values of trust, passion, excitement & by creating demand for its products by shouting louder than its competitors. "- He's certainly doing that. To justify the wank home shirt, Andy Billingham goes for all out propaganda- "Addidas are the shit, we've sold a fuck load of the new home kit, and have proven to be massively popular with the loyal fans" Fuck off Andy.

both kits are lazy designs and befitting of a kit manufacturer who are more concerned with their own branding- nothing new or innovative and a clear sign that we are just another club in an increasingly long list for adidas
what a shame we have signed up long-term as I would have fucked them off due to neglect of duties and gone with a smaller manufacturer that would be pleased to be associated with our beloved club

No, I'll be going retro this season Mills.
Also, they say new away KIT launched. As far as I'm aware, it's just the shirt that they are showing us. No doubt the socks are yellow with pink stripes.

Its at least better than the home kit , which having see now just looks awful . Its all money grabbing stuff really isnt it, £20 for any of these shirts is as much as they are worth

Great idea that, then you would probably be on here saying we have no ambiton etc etc. Then it will be pullis fault. jeez. Dammed if we do dammed if we dont.

I was happy with Le Coq, they've done us three very good home shirts and some good away ones, as well as saving us at the last minute when we had no manufacturer before the promotion season. Much nicer than anything that the bigger manufacturer, Puma, produced. Still, at least I can save my money and just use last season's home shirt this year.

We don't have traditional away. Though I liked our black and red puma one a few years ago. The green and black one was ace though, probably my favourite of all.
