We are delighted to announce that our partnership with existing technical kit supplier Umbro has been renewed. The contract extension will see Umbro produce bespoke on-pitch kits until the end of the 2021/22 season, as well as continuing to manufacture all training and sportswear collections for the Club’s first team and Academy squads, management staff and fans. The Tigers have enjoyed some of their greatest times whilst sporting the double diamond, famously winning promotions to the Premier League in 2008 and 2016, and both parties are hoping to create many more memories for the fans in the coming years. The initial partnership was reignited in the summer of 2014 and, following a successful four-season relationship, the two parties will continue to work together long into the future. The Club’s Commercial Manager, Joe Clutterbrook, said: “Our collaboration with Umbro has worked brilliantly over the last four years and we’re looking forward to continuing our successful relationship. “Umbro are a leading sports brand and we have been extremely happy with the quality of service and the products which have been created over the last few years, and we are confident that this will continue from the Umbro team.” Ewan Scott, Director GLD Group Ltd, said: “We are really proud to renew our partnership with Hull City as their technical kit supplier for the upcoming season. “We have some recent history with the Club and we hope that within this partnership period we can create some lasting memories for the fans, both on the pitch with the players wearing our products, and with the fans wearing our iconic logo.” The Tigers will reveal their brand new Home, Away and Third kits in the months ahead, leading up to the 2018/19 season. https://www.hullcitytigers.com/news/articles/2018/201718-umbro-partnership-renewal/

Poor old Umbro. Just think how many more stuff they would have sold if we'd had a proper crest on all the gear.
Clutterbrook sounds a little like Clusterfuck. Are Mr Clusterfuck & Ms Brewersdroop our new Super Hero partnership?
I read that the same way. I don't see anything super or heroic about them. Has our new commercial, marketing, sales, ticketing, advertising general chief cook and bottle washer actually done anything yet?
Amongst this and the stupid second concessions vote, I wonder when they will get around to selling tickets for the Bristol City match in sixteen days time. Priorities.
If the products have been that good, why have the amber shorts never matched the amber in the shirts? I've actually got a shirt where the amber on the sleeves doesn't match the amber on the body. They seem to have all right with the black though. Does anyone else think that our amber is becoming more, God forbid, tangerine?
Hull City @HullCity Tickets for our @SkyBetChamp trip to @bcfctweets will go on sale to Members at 9am on Friday (one ticket per Member).
Or even proper owners! My Mrs normally gets me the shirts for my Birthday & Christmas, but this year I told her not to give them any money, not even now when they’re trying to give them away. It might not affect things in a big way, but it makes me feel like I’m doing something!
