    So much irony using the tagline 'heart and soul'

    That is exactly what the Allams have tried to take out if the club this season.

    Launched against Arsenal apparently with Geovanni ???
    So it was a good move by the club to keep it quiet ????????
    Only in Hull.

    If the Allams took a tenth of the nous from this promotion and used it in their (currently near non-existent) marketing, the Club would have made a large step forward.

    I've always liked the kits Umbro made.

    Adidas was just **** templates used by loads of other clubs and they always had problems

    Didn't hear it myself, but apparently they announced a special event 24 minutes into the game, which turned out to be the advert for umbro. Is there a significance to the number 24?

    It was to reflect the year Umbro was founded - 1924.

    Which in turn I took to be a nod to City fans chanting at 19:04 for our founding, but I might be reading too much into it.

    Did City use Umbro before 2007?

    I know they supplied goalkeeper shirts to Wealands and McKechnie but that was in the first half of the 70s before the insignia wars kicked in.

    So who supplied the kit up to 1975?

    May well have been Umbro (see my previous post)

    The first ever kit on there is wrong as we played in black and amber stripes not white shirts.

    Pre war was very briefly blue in 35/36 but it's never been white.

    Not a mention of this in the HDM but they have plenty of make believe and speculation about Bruce joining Man U based on no facts at all.

    There doesn't seem to be a specific kick supplier pre 1975.
    Europa appear to be the first with the logo
