    Do you honestly think that Adidas will hold all its goods and ship them out at once? There will be deliveries sent out daily!

    Swan my only comment is and I never mentioned Adidas holding goods up, is that Southampton in the first year of using Adidas have kit to sell.

    I heard that it was not Adidas who were at fault, but our board! Now you can all make of this what you like, but Adidas were kept waiting till the very last minute with the new sponsor, because the board and Jenkins couldn't agree an the new sponsor, and it left Adidas with very little time to get the kit into production! There I've let the cat out of the bag.................................<cheers>

    Anyone bought a new away top? Sizing does not look obvious and after a bit of googling it looks like I'm between M and L. Is the cut of the top figure hugging a la Spurs? If so I'll go for Large

    I can believe that, seems the sponsor were a last minute choice and it would appear that some of the hastily arranged logo must have been been faulty to cause black marks on the shop supply of home kits and therefore they had to be returned back to the supplier....

    Yeah but that makes total economic sense. They're not going to have each factory producing a different kit. They have to work to standard templates. We're just mugs for paying £45 for a piece of fabric every season

    Go large master, I bought a medium last season and had to return it, they tend to be tight. All my normal tops are medium, before dill says anything. :)

    NJ, I still can't see how you get the club at fault. Time needed to plan the launch and a new Cwmdu shop is months. Time needed for supplier to let us down is days or even hours. To make out that we picked a shoddy supplier and that's the club's fault could be close, but we're talking about arguably the world's biggest sportswear supplier. They couldn't have gone any bigger!
