Just using us as an example, they first broke the news about us switching from Puma to Castore, and from Castore to Adidas. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They get things right from kit and sponsorship deals, to colour themes, and designs. They also aggregate official news as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m more interested in replacing my 8 year old bobble hat with something decent. We've had it on a couple of very limited edition shirts but never a team shirt. Adidas released a couple of 'Adidas Originals' designs including the trefoil, the t-shirt occasionally can be seen on ebay but there was also a very rare black and white stripes shirt released. Ill dig out a photo of my home shirt later. EDIT Found a photo of it i'd posted on here before Edited April 6 by geordie_b Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geordie Boyo Posted April 7 Share Posted April 7 I do think it looks better, but I’d just be happy if the stripes don’t have patching and other dodgy colours on it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TK-421 Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 (edited) Yeah, when revenue is even more important to the club now (and all clubs in general) with regard to FFP/PRS, etc, then why should we supply shirts so he can undercut the club shops and thus take away sales that we need more than ever? But thin its already been mentioned, but could Adidas also be part of this argument, as they dont supply their better stuff to his shops?

bobbydazzla Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 (edited) It’s all in the court case report on the BBC linked above Adidas & NUFC have signed an exclusive sales agreement with JD and the fat fuck has taken it to court But of course it was all fine in the fat fuck’s world when Shite Direct had exclusivity on newly launched NUFC Castore shirts He’s subhuman scum And so is anyone who buys an NUFC shirt at Shite Direct Edited April 9 by bobbydazzla Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FLUMPO235 Posted April 9 Share Posted April 9 51,000 x £16.55 = £844,050 51,000 x £70 = £3,570,000 i can see why we don’t want to sell him 51k shirts at £16 vs £70 (bet it’s £75) through the club shop. from a totally unbiased position, it’s a shame other retailers can’t stock our shirts. Although I suspect there isn’t such a thing as an independent sports shop anymore anyway. but, from a biased point of view, we need the ffp cash and that’s a hell of a difference in money. Even if we weren’t making it a JD/club shop exclusive, we shouldn’t be selling to him anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In defence the club should just list all the decisions to happen under the big slug's watch that resulted in fans losing faith in the club's credibility.
