Shame. My mate is a professional photographer.... he would have done it for sure as a favour.

More a local company for the location, as opposed to a local company taking the pictures.

Maybe the barrister that defended us from HMRC will sponsor our stockings?

Glad Solopress are in board. They sponsor The Chelmsford Chieftains as well so all my local sports teams are covered.

@El Jacko sorry I know you're getting bombarded with questions, but can I ask what the reasoning behind the white kit not getting approved was?

Difficult to clean ? We can't afford a washing machine ?

Petr Cech plays for them, new signing perhaps?

The club / Macron didn't pick it.

Like, I said. @El Jacko has a ton of shrimper desgins.

Let's hope he gets to work with the club on the designs next season

This was much better in my opinion. All this yellow malarky, Lol.

Nothing special here . I actually preferred the PG kits. Just as an aside, am I right in thinking that the PG deal would have been worth £50k per year for 5 years ??? ( If they hadn’t have been treated so very poorly !! )

Has anyone confirmed the value of our new sponsorship deal ?? What’s it worth to SUFC ??

See the blue shorts? I wanted the home and away to have shorts and socks that can mix and match... see a 92/94 remake that was also proposed below for reference

The crest on this looks a bit different because I was trying stuff with it, was always going to be the standard crest in the end.

I think that I prefer these designs. I also like the mix and match idea with the shorts and socks. Probably have Ron Martin's ex cleaner model them sticking two fingers up with a Martin out bubble caption.

I harken back to the halcyon days when the only thing on a football shirt was a number on the back and perhaps a badge on the front.

We did have that a few seasons ago when Paddy Power sponsored us and didn't put their name on the shirt as a gimmick. Unfortunately it was the same season that Ron decided to make a cheap training shirt in the Nike catalogue our kit so it looked rubbish.

[flangejackrabbit]

Infinitely better than the last two years I think!

Well done to @El Jacko and @GIBBO, best kits we have had in a while and nice to see some thought and care go into the designs as well as the execution. My favourite since the Hummel kit, shame we couldnt have a lighter blue but the design itself is smashing.

Yes agree completely. Well done to you both. As Retro mentions, it has taken some thought in the designs and this has produced a couple of cracking shirts.

Thank you all. It was blood, sweat and tears.

I just helped @El Jacko with our past and culture.

Going forward. No need for me. @El Jacko is all up to speed about who we are and knows all our history.

In an ideal world. If the commercial team will work with @El Jacko directly on next seasons. They be even better! they will sell well. Macron may be kind and give us more bespoke options.

I give you an example; The background of the kit we wanted it to be embroidered into the kit. It's printed but still looks good.

Now @El Jacko is on here when it comes that time of the year. He prob ask for some input from you lovely lot for ideas. I must stress, we covered all of our past colours, kit types etc. No stone was left unturn.

Let’s just hope the next 12 months all staff are paid like clock work.

That white shirt is excellent. Really good.

Because white kits are sh*t*?
