Clitherover Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 Hull lucky? They are a few quid away from going out of business, players that they cant afford to keep, no manager and relegated to the Championship but they have an Adidas kit. Not much luck there. I'd rather have more money in the bank for the kit sponsorship deal than three stripes down each arm. For all I care we could go back to Spall, Ribero or Elgren as long as we play in our famous blue and white halves (or should I say quarters) and I couldn't care less about what collar is on it either. I'm sure there will be several pages of complaints about the new home shirt when it is revealed but all I want to see is our famous colours. Adidas kits usually are quality though. Saying that my new England away shirt (umbro ofc) is probably the nicest recent shirt i've ever owned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree Adidas make some nice shirts and I am a fan of Adidas trainers and retro tracksuit tops but my opinion is that the Rovers shirt speaks for itself with it's originality no matter what make it is.

Clitherover Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 Surely not nicer than a Rovers shirt. hehe, in terms of quality i meant, i love the fact that they've used cotton, which is a rarity in modern football shirts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sloth_frattelli Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 Any idea on when we might get seeing the new training range? I was disappointed last year not to get any of the luminous yellow versions of kit the players wore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
roversmum Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 Hopefully there will be more produced this year, last year's consignment didn't seem to meet the demand at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hughesy Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 Hopefully there will be more produced this year, last year's consignment didn't seem to meet the demand at all. True - the problem last season was that the club had only just taken over the shop & therefore didnt have any previous sales knowledge about demand for this type of item!

Are you trying to say that we did not get a break down of sales during the tenure of the old regime. How the hell would we have known what commission was due to be paid without that info.

unluckymorton Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 I want Kappa back Kappa was class and would be my choice, but I don't have any issues with Umbro. Anybody will do for me providing they don't make is wear claret and blue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
67splitscreen Posted June 8, 2010 Share Posted June 8, 2010 Yes we never got a break-down. What commission?! So for every shirt sold through the shop, Rovers had no record or no financial gain, I really cannot believe that, unless we were charging a huge amount for them to trade from our facility, offsetting any commissions /royalties that would have been due.

They sold it for a set fee - thats why it took so long to get control back. They might have figures on shirt sales, but not training gear! But we have history now - so hopefully that problem wont occur again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pedderz0912 Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 I was thinking the same, Been very quiet on the new Home shirt front haven't they?? Bit strange though as I could have had one for fathers day - If not out soon may have to get an England one.... When will we get to see this do you think Hughesy??? I would love to be able to get Guti on the back of a Rovers shirt though hahaha - Who would of thought that eh... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Southampton Rover Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 Speaking of Southampton shirts, they've just released a new shirt, which is based on the very first shirt worn by the club. They will be without a sponsor and stripes as they are commemorating their 125th anniversary. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
