BCFCGav Posted February 24, 2023 Report Share Posted February 24, 2023 Nice and clear FAQ’s from the Club which is good - this shirt is for the remainder of this season and next. An away kit will be announced in due course. Hummel were being a problem and we’ve solved it. I’m 50/50 on the shirt design - but it blows me away how angry some people get at a kit they don’t like. Some you’ll like, some you won’t. There’ll be a new one season after next, just relax! 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pre-92 overseas imports were less commonplace, but the game has changed so much since, that what was probably quite usual at the time seems noticable now.

I really struggle to understand how a brand that has survived over 100 years can be 'tinpot'. Especially to then suggest Joma which nearly every park team I’ve played for have worn because it’s cheap. (I realise they do pro teams as well) Anyway, looks like my guess was right - Hummel can’t even provide Matchday kit now so we’ve had to change ASAP. aa bit disappointed because I loved this years shirts and that home shirt looks a bit crap. I get the retro style but it literally looks like a shirt from the 80s in terms of style and fit. Much prefer the 17/18 version of retro, this looks like a score draw knock off IMO 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The club are to blame for the hummel stock levels because they didn't order enough in the first place.... Think your confusing stock levels on the retail side of the business with the main issue, Hummel look couldn’t supply us with kit for the playing squad. A kit supplier should be able to provide kit for the entire season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice shirt, reminds me of our last pinstripe effort from 2017/18...we all know what happened that season. We lost to Man City and our league season finished in disappointment?

Lack of Action Man Posted February 24, 2023 Report Share Posted February 24, 2023 Something has occurred to me. There are typically subtle differences between the shirts that go to the playing squad and the ones that are available for the fans. Player edition shirts often have a little hologram on them as well. Some clubs even sell two types of shirt - an ‘elite’ version (meant to represent the closest you can get to the athletic and borderline skin-tight player cut/fit) shirts and a ‘plebs’ version (typically looser and perhaps more suitable for your average pasty enthusiast city supporter). Given Hummel’s (or rather Elite Sports) monumental blunders, and having read between the lines of the various statements which have been released today implying that the playing squad literally ran out of kit, I wonder if in any of the games this season any of our sides have been wearing the shirts that would/should’ve been in the club shop (I.e. the cheap versions for the plebs)? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Numero Uno Posted February 24, 2023 Report Share Posted February 24, 2023 To me the tinpot outfit is the one who cannot even supply the club with enough playing kit. A line had to drawn somewhere and the club has done it, presumably after giving Hummel one or two chances to resolve the issue. 15 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomo Posted February 24, 2023 Report Share Posted February 24, 2023 O'Neills...?

brad blit Posted February 24, 2023 Report Share Posted February 24, 2023 I don’t buy the shirts anymore, and im not overly bothered about how they look - it’s more important having the right players wearing them That said the one thing I’m confident about with those moaning about the new Supplier being a somewhat lesser known brand, is that with our new management team I’m sure we will have to very best deal available which is very important considering our long term financial plan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
East Yorkshire CideRed Posted February 24, 2023 Report Share Posted February 24, 2023 O'Neills supply the club I play for and I have been very happy with quality and feel of the material, as well as the designs they've created over the years. I have found them a bit hit and miss with delivery, although I'd hope it'd be different with a major football club! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBW Posted February 24, 2023 Report Share Posted February 24, 2023 That shirt looks like the kind of quality you get from a JD Sports catalogue for your Downs League team where they offer you PRINTED stock badge design for an extra fiver.
