BACK TO UMBRO

[ijjysmith]

Quite like that.

 

[Brennan]

Umbro are going to pepper us with "leaked kit" after "leaked kit" for the next month and a half, then go with whatever got the most support, imo.

They will have already made the kits ready to be sold.

 

[AndyZ]

Exactly

You reap what you so

Everyone whinging about Nike despite the fact we didn't get one single template kit and lots of boss heritage gear, and Umbro go and give us a template with those arm bands that everyone said they hated on the current Nike kit

are you saying we did this to ourselves??? *weeps openly*

That kit is just a template of the teams kits shown earlier in the thread with the letter 'U' for a badge. Thought we were going to get something original, when deal was announced. That shirt looks cheap and classless.

If that is proven to be legit (and I'm hoping it isn't), I'd be wondering what the obsession with fat white bands on the sleeves is. That would be 3 kits on the bounce

 

[canveyblue]

That is truly awful, ,shockingly bad

 

[ElPorto]

Just shown my 5 year old lad and he loves it - so all your arguments are invalid

They will have already made the kits ready to be sold.

The final shirt design will have all ready been decided months ago

It was sarcasm. A joke based around combining the two concepts of an increasing number of leaked kits with the furor over the badge change last season. Slowing down to play it self and not get the natives further riled up.

I think the club took on board voices that whinged about Nike

Going from Nike to Umbro is like going from Scarlett Johansson to Ann Widdecombe

Kit manufacturers in general, have made a bit of a rod for their own back.

By releasing 3 new shirts a year, designs are starting to become stale and repetitive.

They should revert back to one home kit every 2 years, alternating with a new away every 2 .

Maybe bring out a limited edition third kit every year to drive sales.

As for the kit shown before - boooooooring!

It's absolutely nothing like that though is it? Nike were ok but badly failed some parts of our fanbase. They also gave us generic kits. So unless Scarlett Johansson is badly frigid and crap at head then your analogy doesn't quite work.

 

[Nobby Nobbs]

Surely Umbro wont use the same design stripes on the sleeves as Nike, its basically the Nike shirt with an Umbro badge on.

Fans moan about not having a new set of kits every season.

Fans moan about everything really.

Isn't that what people wanted though?
