Stick With Umbro?

Abraders · October 20, 2016

Nike will give us horrible, horrible template kits. Adidas will make us look like chelsea. No to both.

I like umbro so far, kits have been ace

Adidas recently have lost the RS, Chelsea, Southampton, Stoke and Swansea as kit suppliers. I know they have spent a fortune on united's kit deal but are Adidas looking to concentrate on other areas of their business? If not I can foresee Adidas looking to make a strong claim to be our next kit supplier as we are an established Premiership club and with a new stadium on the horizon, I feel the 'brand' and exposure of the club will only enhanced.

As long as it's blue, then the best deal for the club really.

I like that Umbro have given us unique and traditional looking kits. Nike just produce awful templates for everyone. We'd probably be wearing blue shorts if we had them. Adidas usually just churn out really boring template kits too.

Their kits were surprisingly ace. Very unique

I see spurs are getting 25m next year from Nike as opposed to 10m from under armour. They are southern based and regulars if Europe (if not the champions league). Surprisingly city are only getting 12m per year off Nike. Surprising considering they are regulars in the champions league, although they are in the process of renogotiating a new deal that could land them a 20m per year.
It begs the question what could we expect to get? Apparently we get 6m per year off umbro and I'm sure European football and the announcement of a new ground on the waterfront would see us as an 'attractive' proposition to kit suppliers. I suppose 10m per year could be attainable.

They did some bits for us a few seasons back, was deffo the best footy related stuff I've seen for years.

Which of the two is the worse deal - Umbro kit sponsor or Chang sponsor?

First time round I thought they were brilliant.

Second time round....really bad.

Umbro making the kit doesn't give half of goodison the weekly squits.

Watching this Europa League match and Fenerbahce has some pretty decent kits. Not a team I could see having top priority for design from Adidas but still decent.
