Ok, other clubs now want kit, I sympathise with their dilemma but..... Look after your core clients first.

Gutted about this, wanted one for my holiday. Probably won’t bother if they’re not out in time.

The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'

Must admit I’ve not bought one in a couple of seasons. We’ve had Errea for years, I’m quite bored of it. Not bad designs but think they must have exhausted a lot of options

Personally I've never been a fan of the designs that much, always felt there was a bit too much going on.

I do like how they have the sponsor woven into the shirt, better than the peeling you'd get with the transfers on the Nike shirts. But then the embroided badge seems poor in quality in comparison, a little sharp on the edges.

I guess it has everything to do with price. If the cost price is low then that will outweigh all other factors from the clubs point of view

Probably won't buy one anyway. If you have one of their kits the rest feel the same. Still not seen an away shirt I desperately want either.

A lot of the other clubs who are Erreà's clients including Norwich, Queens Park Rangers, Blackpool, Rochdale and Lincoln have not released any info yet, so maybe in the same boat.

Inverness and Walsall don't have issue with their kits being supplied on time by Erreà for next season, already on sale.

Errea are terrible. Weak designs, poor quality and ill fitting shirts. We should just get Adidas in (and I'm not bothered if that means we end up with a template instead of something bespoke - it'd still look a load better than anything the clowns at Errea could come up with)

I’m normally an XL but usually end up having to buy a 4XL. Shirts are excrement and poor quality.

Maybe they should give us a discount to share in their success, in recognition of the years of loyal custom.  There's an opportunity for Dave Smith.

I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,
For in our hearts the dreams are still the same.

Thing is with football shirts, you'll never please everyone.

I agree with davmariner regarding the sizing. I am a bit lumpy but only need 2xl in most clothes but for my football shirt I have to get either a 4xl or 5xl

The problem as I see it is that every man and his dog have errea and the only time we hear from them is when we launch kits.

The club needs a change. The problem with likes of Adidas Puma etc the club are small fry and will we will suffer the same issues. My favoured approach would be a smaller brand eager to please.

When else would we want to be hearing from the kit manufacturer?

How about at the next fan’s forum? They couldn’t do any worse than Slade, Fenty and Marley did last year.

Look at Adidas, for example. Look at how they make the most of their partnerships with the likes of Man U and Real Madrid. Co branded marketing campaigns and the likes. That to me looks like a modern brand partnership. They include these clubs in there campaigns.

You can argue that why would any brand want to include town in theirs? Why not? By working with partners who actively promote the clubit helps build GTFC in terms of their brand proposition, how prospective players see the club rightvthe way through to public perception on a new ground. On that note I believe Youngs should do more, but that's their prerogative.

I do work in brand partnerships but not in sport so I imagine this as widely transferable elements

I assume the next Fans forum will be live on Radio Humberside so they should prepare a 20 minute PowerPoint presentation on how our kits have developed over the last 10 years.
