It’s not the shirt you have to worry about, it’s the team that’s going to be wearing it.

The £3m a season ended in 2014 -

'The Malaysian government did not continue its sponsorship in following seasons but Vincent Tan and his fellow Malaysian, the Sultan of Johor, have kept the logo.'

Maybe Swiss Ramble should get BBC Verify to check their sources, rather than just saying 'reportedly'.
I read years ago that the tourist board were no longer paying for the logo, and that VT was just wanted the space for his own enterprises.

Re: New kit 23/24

Not even that it’s blue?

I'm not fussed on the pattern on the front, I'd rather it was just blue like the shoulder/arms

Is there a breakdown of that figure? The club has many sponsors and other income streams that would be included in that figure.

It could have been worse (I actually quite like the new kit).

This from Southampton today is a bit :puke:

Re: New kit 23/24

Can't make up my mind, to be honest. It looks like whoever was making the decision ticked the 'use all options' box by mistake.
Collar - tick
Contrasting colour collar - tick
Button collar - tick
Shoulder stripe - tick
White side panels - tick
Geometric design - tick
Etc, etc.

Still, it's blue and it looks okay - AND from what I can gather, it has a proper embroidered badge, instead of one of those stick-on transfer things. The away version is on the club website, and that looks quite good.

I thought that greyish/mauve number was the keepers kit

This is a throwback from the 80s/90s isn’t it? The sponsor doesn’t do it any favors mind, the red on red looks crap.

Who gives a rats arse in what kit we get beaten in week in week out.

:hehe: I have to agree.
I have as much interest in what our kit looks like as I do how Robert Glatzel is faring in whatever league he plays in LOL

It’s ordinary. When are we going back to white shorts?

Re: New kit 23/24

It's always a laugh this time of year when a dozen competing CCMB Fashion & Style correspondents get into a slanging match.

Punctuated by the dog-eared Nostalgia commentators and a few Whataboutery experts with their fingers on the pulse of other clubs!

Re: New kit 23/24

No White shorts, white socks!
We look like Colchester
