Webbo Posted 6 October 2008 Posted 6 October 2008 I dont see why Mandy would stop using Jako after so many years as a customer. Especially when he'd make more money from Jako as well.
davieG Posted 6 October 2008 Posted 6 October 2008 If anypone would like to explain to me why one brand of shirt is "better" than another then I'm all ears?Do any of them not use the same slave labour sweatshops in India and Bangladesh? I agree we should make our own we could call them Fox Leisure , I'm sure we could find / create a decent sweatshop in Leicester. Think of all the transport costs we could save, we could even close up the Mega Store and have people collect their own direct from their local Fairtrade sweatshop. Leicester City FC going green.
Tevez Posted 6 October 2008 Posted 6 October 2008 Red addidas away kit maybe? Then we'll look the Scouse up north.
Jimmy Posted 6 October 2008 Posted 6 October 2008 Jako have another 2 years left on the deal after this season
Daggers Posted 6 October 2008 Posted 6 October 2008 Jako have another 2 years left on the deal after this season Maybe the cock-up over supplying the black kit activates a termination clause?
Bert Posted 6 October 2008 Posted 6 October 2008 Jako have another 2 years left on the deal after this season So, you do know how to start sentences with capital letters. Full stops next.
Samilktray Posted 6 October 2008 Posted 6 October 2008 Jako have another 2 years left on the deal after this season I thought it was over at the end of this season?
Uncle Albert Posted 6 October 2008 Posted 6 October 2008 So, you do know how to start sentences with capital letters.Full stops next. You with Jimmy and LD3 with Shingy.
Ben Posted 6 October 2008 Posted 6 October 2008 Good news if true, all depends on what it looks like though. Don't know why but I've always thought Adidas would be our future kit suppliers.
Matt Posted 6 October 2008 Posted 6 October 2008 http://www.lcfc.premiumtv.co.uk/page/Lates...1056510,00.html It is a 4 year contract. As said maybe a termination of contract is possible, but just a source for the fact it is a 4 year contract with Jako as far as we know.
Jay Posted 6 October 2008 Posted 6 October 2008 I couldn't give a monkeys who makes our kits it's the badge on the left that matters not the brand on the right of the shirt
act smiley Posted 6 October 2008 Posted 6 October 2008 If anypone would like to explain to me why one brand of shirt is "better" than another then I'm all ears?Do any of them not use the same slave labour sweatshops in India and Bangladesh? I think some of the bigger brands have better trained kids in their sweatshops and use slightly nicer material?
orod Posted 6 October 2008 Posted 6 October 2008 i hope this is true. I havent bought a leicester top cus i think its looks really shyte. my last top is the alliance and leicester one, its much more stylish than the jako topps tiles one. id defo get one next season if its an adidas one.
Finchy Posted 6 October 2008 Posted 6 October 2008 Hope it's true although i cant see it, after years and years of sh*t kits why would we suddenly get a decent one? Who cares if it's an old adidas design tho, seriously have you seen the kits we're currently wearing! I wouldn't mind if it was an adidas design from the early 90s, it would still be better than these shocking Jako kits.
LoughboroughFox Posted 6 October 2008 Posted 6 October 2008 Bring back bukta! they were such hot shirts!
Tilley Posted 7 October 2008 Posted 7 October 2008 Hope it is true, I don't know alot about business, but I'm sure it would be cheaper to pay Jako to make a kit, than Adidas, so why would Mandy pay out.
Austin Posted 7 October 2008 Posted 7 October 2008 Hope it is true, I don't know alot about business, but I'm sure it would be cheaper to pay Jako to make a kit, than Adidas, so why would Mandy pay out. Maybe he's thinking, people are more likely to buy an Adidas shirt .. so if he shells out a bit, he may recouperate it?
Guest Bilo Posted 7 October 2008 Posted 7 October 2008 Maybe he's thinking, people are more likely to buy an Adidas shirt .. so if he shells out a bit, he may recouperate it? That's long been my theory on the matter. I'm sure we'd sell more shirts if they looked better and the quality was more befitting of a garment that costs £40. I'm confident adidas would be able to provide that. I also don't buy this 'identikit' argument. Look at Peterborough's kit, the same as Chelsea's? I don't bloody think so!
sdb Posted 7 October 2008 Posted 7 October 2008 the more i think about this (and realise the Jako deal has years to run), the more i think this is bollocks
Anish Posted 7 October 2008 Posted 7 October 2008 i hope this is true. I havent bought a leicester top cus i think its looks really shyte. my last top is the alliance and leicester one, its much more stylish than the jako topps tiles one. id defo get one next season if its an adidas one. Exactly the same here. I can't stand the current shirt and haven't bought one since the Alliance & Leicester shirt a few years ago. If they make them look better it would definitely appeal to me.
Webbo Posted 7 October 2008 Posted 7 October 2008 People buy their football shirts because of the club badge not the manufacturers logo. If Adidas made the most beautiful shirt ever created it still wouldn't be bought by anyone other than Leicester fans.
James. Posted 7 October 2008 Posted 7 October 2008 People buy their football shirts because of the club badge not the manufacturers logo. If Adidas made the most beautiful shirt ever created it still wouldn't be bought by anyone other than Leicester fans. Maybe with Leicester but that's not the case generally.
Fosse Boy Posted 7 October 2008 Posted 7 October 2008 At the moment I'll just settle for something which is symmetrical... Adidas kits tend to look rather complicated which I don't like, but I'll happily take just about anything over the crap which we sport at the moment...
