Listen, people...we can have boring and generic, or we can have a team outfitted in something memorable. And that's memorable. It's being launched via trebuchet over a tire-fire while listening to ABBA memorable. It must happen. Edit: also, we keep talking about needing to broaden the reach of the club financially, appeal to new markets and whatnot. Well, that kit will appeal to the largest market of them all: people with absolutely no taste. And if we become the team of choice for the hopelessly tasteless, we'll never again want for money.
Well, I'd love to be able to stay and talk prospective kit with you guys all night but I really need to catch up on some sleep. Big day ahead tomorrow.
Oh, surely this is just expectation management? Oldest trick in the book. Leak that season ticket prices are going up 15% and then when they go up 10% people don't feel so bad. Whatever the kit actually is, we will feel grateful is isn't that thing.
more than anything I love how hilarity has this year replaced the antipathy that surrounded last year's kit leak. It nicely encapsulates the mood a year on. God we used to take ourselves too seriously
I have it on good authority that Ralph's proposed changes include a different motivational saying on the back of each players shirt. (This may not be true).
Too early to say. That's definitely, 100% the design that Cortese finalised, but once he left the new board realised how **** it was. There wasn't a lot of time, and I have no idea if they managed to or not. I'm hoping not because this one is hilarious.
