Clever. I’ll want a memento of the day today, that’s usually when I buy my away shirts. They got £ out of me last season when we smashed Spuds 😂

Il just take one if the corner flags when we are on the pitch. :whistle:

I have just had a look online, amazing really, but what I found even more staggering is the price, £63 down to £25, at that and with the extra patch stuck on they will be making a profit.

 

Goes to show how much it costs to turn out cheap replica looking shirts in the far east.

amazing isnt it...its almost as though the club is trying to profit from its fans  (say no to $25)

Really hope this is wrong. Not a company I'd like us to be connected with.

I hear you but football has become intrinsically linked to millionaire/billionaire individuals and organisation with direct or close links to Governments and Monarchy.

 

It's a pretty tough to swallow how these sausages are made though, granted.

You won’t find many companies affiliated with football in this day and age that are morally clean. You don’t become a billion £ enterprise by constant do good-ing. King power themselves will have a closet full of skeletons. It is what it is. 

I fully understand all of this. Sometimes though I think you need to set a precedent and start to stand up for things that really matter in the world and football is not really one of those things. I'm sure most people couldn't care less who the club has a shirt sponsor and that's fine but for me I wouldn't buy a shirt with their name on it. And that's the crux really isn't it? As fans we can't stop what shirt sponsors we have but we don't have to buy them, especially if the sponsors go against our own ideas of decency.

Kit itself I like. Sponsor not so much. I guess we’ll see in 2 hours

The look of it or what the company are themselves? I don’t think the sponsor looks bad but obviously not ideal what there involved in but every other team seems to do it and we need the funds granted if we wasn’t in this position I wouldn’t be so pleased! Not sure if we will even wear it today?

Actually looks decent in that render. I thought the two-tone blue looked a bit like a training shirt in the previous leak. But if it looks anything like that, I'll be quite happy.

 

I'm not exactly on board with advertising a fossil fuel company but aesthetically the sponsor looks a lot better than FBS.

It’s worked on me. I’m after the orange kit today 😂

 

Is the 25% off today actually a thing?

When the app was downloaded before the fixture today, further discounts supposed to be available...not seen how to get said discount myself as yet. 

 

Anyone have any idea?

Beggars and choosers. Oil company or betting companies or syndicates they’re all pretty lousy but this PTT are worth several hundred billion so I assume this sponsorship will be extremely lucrative for us

The problem with this is, weee now under pressure financially. Every club of our size is, and a lucrative sponsorship deal can really host the financial position of the club. Unfortunately no club wanting to be competitive in this current climate would ever refuse a sponsor based on moral beliefs, unless the link to widespread atrocity was so obvious that the deal would cause you more harm than good. It’s the modern game, it’s corrupt to the very core.

No idea. The queue at the store was ridiculous so I didn’t go in. Dodged a bullet because the most recent photos of the third kit look deceptively nice on the website. But seeing people wearing them today… absolutely vile 😂😂

I agree. The club will take the money. But fans could still boycott a shirt if they don't approve of the sponsor.  I know they won't but it is is things like this that fan power can make a difference. It isn't only the club that can have a moral backbone.

I haven’t purchased a shirt for years! For the reason I won’t pay over the odds for a bit of fabric! But like you say, they will still sell thousands of them!
