Why do people feel the need to display which team they support? Surely attending games and supporting the team will suffice? So football shirts are out, other sports club shirts are out, band t-shirts are out. Anything else you want that we should all follow when we get dressed in the morning? Wouldn't want to cause you any unnecessary distress. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thankfully this year I will be able to buy one of these beauties: So one can actually buy a shirt without a sponsor? That would be a very positive move.

BCFC1512 Posted September 4, 2020 Report Share Posted September 4, 2020 Bit disappointed that Robins hasn’t replaced the sponsor like last 2 seasons! Looks a bit plain with nothing may as well buy the training top! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid in the Riot Posted September 4, 2020 Report Share Posted September 4, 2020 The use of dry-dye technology is superb to be fair, really applaud JL/the club on that. There are many things that are pretty appalling about the way football shirts are manufactured unfortunately, and water consumption is one of them. Great we've addressed that. Having a betting company as a sponsor is regrettable given the horrendous impact it has on some in society; let's be clear, bankruptcy/severe debt and even a contributing factor to suicide at worst. But overall, it's a lovely shirt and will surely sell big. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks a bit plain with nothing may as well buy the training top! I'm delighted by this. The smallest adult size is baggy on me, and having 'Robins' emblazoned on the front has always put me off getting a youth shirt. But love the look of the shirt without a sponsor.

Guest Posted September 4, 2020 Report Share Posted September 4, 2020 6 hours ago, Sweeneys Penalties said: I like the look of the shirt and would be happy to see the 8 get a %tage of sales. Unfortunately I'm 58 years of age and waaaaaaayyyyyy too old to wear a Football Shirt. I'll stick to Polo Shirts Well I`m nearly 68 and I have just bought one, also... really .....bought a 8 mug as well, (waits for comments on that) in the hope that maybe something goes back to the 8, if I do ever get back to the gate I would be proud to wear it as well.

He doesn't say whether they asked permission to do it. To use names and images. Can you do that without permission...use someone's name and image in a product to sell? Surely in this day and age, permission would have to be sought and image rights agreed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just adding to the above I hope that the club aren't just going to keep all the money associated with kits, books, paintings etc of these guys they make.

Mike Hunt-Hertz Posted September 5, 2020 Report Share Posted September 5, 2020 I think some of these kit designers must have had previous careers, creating the tasteful upholstery in 1990s Romahomes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
