Does anyone know a release dade for the new kit
Eds?
Mr g
Anybody else sick of it being after the season has actually started? Bad enough they're now all changed annually but to not be ready until September is a joke. Do we get a discount on a late launch, we treat it like a transfer window ;-)

Levy likes to use the preseason games as an advert to entise even more sales. Usually 2 of the 3 will be realised before the season with the other shirt release to co-inside with the first or second home game of the new campaign (if first game is at the lane then it'll be the next home game, if we start away, it'll be the first home fixture). As we don't know the fixtures yet we don't know when it'll be but the fixtures are released on the 17th of this month donut won't be long until there's an official statement. Hasn't our sponsorship with Aurasma finished now? Not sure but I think a new sponsor is due this season. Any one have any info on this?

Wasn't sure if it was a Birmingham recycling company, to match Levy's ambition in the transfer market!
Don't we have to wait until after the transfer window is closed in case we sell a player whose shirt has had thousands of sales?
If this was the case Wulf, the same rules would apply to the other clubs as well, yet some of them have already released next season kit ( Man U for instance).
As for getting a players name on the back, that's just potluck I think. A player could be sold before end of August, could be January or could get ruled out for the entire season trough injury (a la Kaboul). These things happen I'm afraid and not all can/will be planned in advance. I may be wrong of course, this is just how I see it.

Oh I didn't mean to insinuate that it was a rule (sorry that it came across like that), more us being cautious about things.
