"Lorry broke down", thats what we always tell our customers when our lorries never arrive on time from Spain, or you can use the old one "the lorries been impounded by customs" or the "bloody illegals have nicked the sodding lot", and in France and Kent all the locals are now Swans fans.
Apparently Dai spoke to Adidas yesterday and told them we didnt have a sponsor just a black square on t efront so that is what they printed. Of course Jenkins put them straight this morning and so they had to pull the whole line for reprinting
Pain in the ass mind when you get one on a lorry, we had a lorry arrive the driver un sheeted the side, this fella jumps off the side falls flat on his face and hurts his leg and can't move. Needles to say our warehouse lads are pissing themselves. Old bill turn up and he ends up being deported.
what a shambles....huw boyo you have to let the people who make our shirts know who the sponsors are before they can do the job... what a wally..
Away kit - the purple looks class but a plain purple with black shorts would have been stronger option. Why don't they do a third kit.....would the trust explain why....anyone know why ? Of all seasons this year, a Europa season would have justified this.
Yes I agree, you've made yourself look very silly again. Thanks for the entertainment this is much better than the comedy channel
How the **** can you blame the club, Adidas have fcuked us as per their statement not Swansea City. They've apologised as per this statement. "adidas wishes to sincerely apologise to the club and all Swansea City fans. "Unfortunately there has been a delay with the delivery of the new 2013/2014 adult home shirt and some items from the new 2013/14 Swansea City training wear range due to a situation which regrettably adidas has been unable to rectify in time for the scheduled launch. "adidas is immensely proud of our partnership with Swansea City Football Club and we are working extremely hard to ensure this situation is resolved quickly and efficiently. "We would like to put on record how sorry we are for any inconvenience caused to the fans and the club by the delay in adidas delivering these items. "The revised launch date for the 2013/2014 adults home shirt and relevant items from the new 2013/14 Swansea City training wear range will be communicated to the fans via the club website as soon as possible."
