TK-421

I blame all them people who bitched on about the I and the T being too close together on the last Castore embroidered badge. Obviously put the idea in the clubs head that the crest was too complicated.

There you garn, Marra. Shield is optional/extra.

I think much like our current version on change shirts, and similar to what Man City do with theirs, there'll be a 'mono' version of whatever it is on the change shirts. Think Home shirt would stay as colour though.

They'll change the crest mid-next season, and then need to bring out (at least) 3 new kits with it on. Think of the FFP/PSR money!

Liverpool have since changed/simplified theirs though.

Sunderland when we reveal our new badge/crest

Dont know why this is such a surprise. Were there not reports the club had engaged people to look into a redesign a couple/few years ago? Then we had club videos last summer(?) with one of the old crest behind Eales (the round 1970s one), and people speculated going back to the one. At least the club are engaging supporters in the change, and will (hopefully) take feedback on board, rather than just changing it.

Grim reaper straight in with the Ashley comparisons. Never change Craig, Never change.

Hopefully they don't just lews, but get a proper hiding in the first leg tonight, then the 2nd leg infront of a '40,000' home crowd will be absolewtly toxic, marra. Beeeeew

Those away and 3rd kits are just DH Gate specials based on word of mouth, aren't they? Been around/on there for a few weeks now.

Aye, cannot stand either team. Hate spurs as have a cousin who supports them, so he'll be full of it if they win. And hate Manyoo, because, well they're Manyoo. Just a proper shit situation that because of the 3 relegation certainties, they both basically sacked off their league form for this backdoor route into the CL.

40,000 tickets sold already for Tuesday's 2nd leg.... allegedly.

About 40 thewsand MLF's turned up to see the lads off to Coventry today, apparently..

Jeez, what a shit pen

I think the club/Adidas are gonna need another killer advert for the launch this year. Looking back in this thread, it was the Black and White adidas commercial that got people on board with this seasons home shirt, when the initial response on reveal was also very 'meh' to it.

Well I heard that Isak was physically sick at the photoshoot when he saw it. Worrying.

It's a pity Alan Robson isn't still the PA man. Could have had 'Make some noise!'

Don't spoil the annual shirt reveal boom/bust cycle, man!

Of course, all the papers running with the 'Bruno speaks to Pep' line.

What's with all the gestures from Minteh seemingly towards our fans??

Lads wearing that new training gear that Adidas had for sale, briefly.

Seem quite expensive on there, for what will basically be the same stuff from DaveyGate. If the link works, this seller has loads of retro keeper tops, including the ones @TBG is after. https://www.dhgate.com/product/goalkeeper-retro-soccer-jerseys-1992-1993/1048247436.html
