Mendip City

I see Man U have signed a £900m ten-year deal with Adidas…. Crazy money I know but I’d love to know how that compares with our O’Neils deal!

This is how the club should be thinking. the bigger the club we sell to the lower the chance of a sell-on for a profit.

The suspension bridge should definitely have been included. I like your second one - also the symmetrical date…. Just looks an afterthought shoved onto the left of our current badge. Never mind I’m sure the powers that be are listening from their tax havens.

I’ve no idea why we don’t go for the same colour scheme across both clubs. They have added non-traditional red to their navy and white. If we added navy it would look fine. Both clubs could have the same training wear/jackets just stick a different badge on it. Ideally a better brand than O’Neils but those t-shirts look better than anything the football club has produced so far. Surely we could strike a great deal with a supplier?

Blimey we’ve had some rubbish - Nibor, TFG, Bristol Sport, O’Neils…. Probably others I have erased from my memory.

Yeah I remember how they used to be. I was joking. This kit is embarrassing in 2023.

Don’t tempt them…… it’ll be dismantled Suspension Bridge or a cartoon coat of arms next.

What is it with badly matching shades of yellow? The shirts look washed out, the shorts practically hi-viz!

Stupid thing is that the green on the socks seems a good match. Overall it just looks cheap and nasty.

The fact the rugby lot are also now stitched-up with O’Neils’ rubbish makes me think the deal will be for longer than any of us would like. I’ve said before that the only logical reason for this is that we’ve driven them down to a ridiculously low cost.. and the “quality” reflects this. Bring back Bukta!!!!! ?

That’s how I read it - unfortunately

Another one?? ??

So…. What do you think of it so far? rank these in order of shite-ness 1) the new GDPR breaching website 2) a splattered roadkill robin 3) O’Neils sportswear… At least we’re looking good ON the field.

The trouble is, ultimately, off the field we’re pretty bloody tinpot. It is a disgrace and a data breach. All I hope is they don’t offer me an O’Neil’s shirt to make up for it ?

Mine too. I’ve logged in and it shows my email but someone else’s name, date of birth, phone number, address… I didn’t go rummaging for bank details. This is a massive data breach! It’s against the law and the sort of thing companies get fined heavily for… if you happen to be listening Steve Lansdown, Jon, Phil Alexander….COMPANIES GET HEAVILY FINED FOR THIS. @JerrySLO can you please raise this with the club urgently.

Any idea how I get rid of the constant pop up inviting me to buy tickets for the Preston game?

Surely it’s all about profit margin for the club. I imagine O’Neills have been screwed to a dirt-cheap deal…. And unsurprisingly the quality matches. Never mind. We ALWAYS have a unique* kit thanks to JL. *unless you can remember the previous version of it.

Imagine him on today’s pitches…. Bearing in mind a Saudi club has today offered £300m for Mbappe, what on earth would Trevor’s value be today? RIP Trevor.

Yeah you’re probably right. In the case of Vyner, presumably we want to keep him and, presumably, his attitude is good. No need to change anything. I suppose sone players down tools but I reckon that’s the minority.

Difference is - Atkinson and Naismith are under contract but I agree with your point about their injury records. I guess adding Kalas to them just adds to the overall injury risk. I hope NP is reasonably fair with players running their contract down - it’s the player’s choice and not playing them is cutting off your nose to spite your face. Gary Johnson used to freeze players out completely - Basso and Orr being two examples. It didn’t help the club at all. I guess we are thin at centre back but I don’t know how good the new signings are at playing there. We’ve also got Pring to cover. Hopefully Atkinson hits the ground running when he’s back.

Agree I’m sure he’s gone. Good servant but also the injury record was becoming a concern (especially when, correctly, we’re carrying a small squad). my bigger concern is whether Vyner signs a new deal.

Looks like he might well have picked it up whilst on holiday in Spain!

They definitely need Kane! Also what happened to our pre-season community games?

Exactly! I see Rice is set to sign for Arsenal any time now….. could that open West Ham’s wallet???

That’s a hidden bonus a lot of the time! I’ll up the bidding - £26m for the castle and half of Scotland.
