tian447 Posted June 3, 2018 Share Posted June 3, 2018 Surely we'll get to see something this week. A teaser, a glimpse, even a poorly-drawn MS Paint version of what it looks like would do me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phil D. Corners Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 (edited) Do we have a sponsor for next season? As far as I’m aware the delay with ‘save the children’ was just for 3 years which I assume has now expired. Im just won’t if this is the reason for the delay to release the kits. Also just noticed that no players have been photographed with save the children since season finished. (Except Olly, but photos wee take around the hibs game.) Edited June 4, 2018 by Phil D.

A_A wehatethehibs Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 New sponsor this year you say? “[every new sponsor year for the last 20 years] Please be strongbow, please be strongbow, please be strongbow....” I don’t even like cider Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I.T.K Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 It's a bit worrying we dont have a sponsor lined up. I'm in with the Strongbow nostalgia. Maybe there is something in it. The 98 cup winning replica strip has Strongbow but not the Olympic Sports logo. I assume the club had talks with Strongbow to use it.

PhoenixHearts Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 Could it be we are waiting for the transfer window to open as we've got a super secret signing already lined up to come in and launch the new kit? I don't think it's absolutely necessary to get some new faces launching the new kit, but you could end up the other way round like Hibs with 5 absolutely nameless nomarks modelling for you. Reckon we'll see something by the end of this week? In the next two weeks surely. Has to be before the world cup you'd think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheBigO Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 The likes of Emirates have been a massive issue in saturating football with money and creating a chasm between the elite and the rest. A big part of the ruin of football imo. But if they wanted to batter some money in to us, I'd happily bow down to them as my overlord and master! Imagine even £3M a year from them. Loose change really, but what a difference it'd make to us! Worth a wee daydream. Neymar looking to get out of Paris too.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Money4NothingDrinks4Free Posted June 4, 2018 Share Posted June 4, 2018 I have a friend who works for a marketing agency that deals with a few football teams, one of which being Hearts. He has sent me this image of a shirt they are using to draft up twitter and facebook promotions to sell the shirt. Looks like a bit of a mock up but apparently they are waiting for the top to be signed off by Hearts and for high res imagery. Personally Turkish Airlines wouldn't be my choice of sponsor....

Cool, so an Umbro template that looks nothing like what any other team has got, and nothing like what Umbro are still using, badly put together on Paint.NET with a sponsor that doesn't even fit the shirt, using a colour combinaton that no-one in their right mind would ever suggest.

That's fair enough, but it will never actually look like that design. If we have a new sponsor next season, I can also guarantee it will never, ever, be a dark blue text on a maroon shirt. For one, you wouldn't be able to see it on TV, or from a distance, which is likely concern Numero Uno for any sponsor of any team!
