Exile fae Main Street Posted July 20 Author Share Posted July 20 As I said on another thread my Son lost my original top in a house move, so for purely selfish reasons am over the moon at the prospect of a new strip.....and has been said on a few previous threads-nobody is forcing anyone to buy it....

Bunny Munro Posted July 20 Share Posted July 20 Just now, Tour22 said: The last one was our official third kit. This one isn't. Yes I know. My point is why is not. Why do we have a separate third kid when this was in the works? Or why not do this next year as our third kit instead? There's no need for the club to release 4 kits in one year (Plus two keeper kits). Unless you're suggesting this has nothing to do with the club? In that case it won't be worn on a matchday etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Dastardly Posted July 20 Share Posted July 20 Do we think every pledgee/pledger (whatever the correct word is) is going to have their name on it? Is there going to be a minimum contribution amount? I've only been contributing since i started my new job a year ago so, while i would love my name on it, i wouldn't expect them to be able to cram all the names on one top.

If it is🤷♂️ Still a lot cheaper than me attending one match at Tynie given where I live. And am not committed to buying three. I already have the first one. I expect realistically it will be £50-70.

If you don't agree with the use of the word 'fleecing', then it's a least 'poor form' from the club/FoH. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way I won't feel like I have been fleeced My concern is largely for people/families that buy one strip a year, waiting for the three kits to be released, choosing the one they want, buying it, and then being told there is a fourth kit, and this one is special as it has your name on it. It seems I'm in the minority. I'm ok with that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
