  1. Pretty sure a while ago the mag fanzine twitter account tweeted saying they had contacted the club and was told first week in August it would be out.

     

    Haven't we got friendlies arranged for July etc?

     

    Maybe it won't be available for fans to buy prior to August but would imagine we will see pics/be able to pre order well before that.

  2. What's the quality like those who have got it?  If I go into down later (as I doubt as it's pissing down) I might pop in and pick one up.

    I think we might get a collar and sleeves like this.

     

    I really like this kit, if we have the same shirt style I'll be pleased.  Looks smart to me.

  4. Why don't people wait til we see the actual kit - not some knocked up prototype on a hanger with the wrong sponsor on - before saying it's sh1te.  :fool:

  5. Footballer Ched Evans has been jailed for five years for raping a 19-year-old woman, while another player, Clayton McDonald, has been cleared.

     

    Wales and Sheffield United striker Evans, 23, was convicted by a jury at Caernarfon Crown Court.

     

    Both he and Port Vale defender McDonald, also 23, had denied rape at a Premier Inn near Rhyl, Denbighshire.

     

    The men admitted having sex with the woman on 30 May, 2011 but said it was consensual.

     

    During the trial, the jury saw video interviews in which the woman, now 20, said she could not remember what happened and feared her drinks were spiked.

     

    She could not remember travelling to the hotel, but woke up in a double bed.

     

    "My clothes were scattered around on the floor," she said.

     

    "I just didn't know how I got there, if I had gone there with anyone. I was confused and dazed."

     

    The court heard that Evans, whose mother lives in Rhyl, had invited McDonald and others for a bank holiday night out in the seaside town on 29 May.

     

    Because there was not enough space at Evans' mother's house, he booked McDonald into the hotel.

    Clayton McDonald Defender Clayton McDonald signed for Port Vale last season

     

    The court heard that McDonald met the woman and took her back to the hotel room, sending a text to Evans stating he had "got a bird".

     

    During Evans' evidence, he told the jury he had gone to the hotel, let himself into McDonald's room and watched his friend and the woman having sex.

     

    It was claimed McDonald asked if his friend could "get involved", to which the woman said yes.

     

    The prosecution claimed that while the attack happened, Jack Higgins, an "associate" of the footballers, and Ryan Roberts, Mr Evans' brother, watched through a window.

     

    The court heard the defendants had known each other since they were 10 years old and shared digs when they played for Manchester City's youth academy.

     

    First I've really heard on this but yeah how the hell can Evans get done and not McDonald if the girl can't even remember going back to the hotel??

     

    Anyway if he did it he deserves to be sent down.  This his career finished.

     

    Think we've learnt by now that this isn't necessarily true.

     

    Don't think any club in their right mind will employ a convicted a rapist.  He's 23, say he serves 3 years of the 5.  He's as good as f****d it up.

  7. Yes he'd said he liked Newcastle as it was a lot more chilled out than other cities.  I honestly don't think he 'wants' to move, but if the club accept a wopping bid for him what is he going to do?

     

    Depends how good his advisor is/how much cash they'll offer him. He's on a fair whack here now and I can't see him being a regular first teamer at either Chelsea or City.

     

    Aye pointless worrying about it anyway, it's nice of him to come out and say he doesn't want to move though, so perhaps that's a bit of a message to the board in itself i.e. "don't accept any offer".
