[Albion] Training Kit - Pi$$take

[worthingseagull]

with the launch of the latest training kit "refresh kit" that is 7 different training kits/midlayers the club have had just THIS season (and we are only half the way through it !!!!

Nike and the club (for allowing it) are taking the pi$$ imo and at the same time, turning our stands into a multicoloured Rod Jane & Freddy shambles

Are you saying they’ve Bungled this one?

No one's forcing you to buy it. No one's forcing anyone to wear it. And, if you do buy and wear it you're helping to contribute to funding the best team the club's ever put out.

I certainly think that training every day will make you a little more Zippy.

Do you get angry that McDonald’s have several different burgers on sale every time you go in there?

That's not really a problem though as there are always supplies of our home and away kits in all sizes available through the club shop......oh.

I fully accept the age-old 'my kid wants ALL the new kits, and its not fair on parents to change the shirts every season' argument.

But, TRAINING KIT?

Nah - they can train in as many different outfits as they like - and if anyone wants to buy it, or not buy it, is entirely up to them. Total non story.

bit different dont you think - in Macdonalds we need choice, here we dont (well not this much anyway, as its purely just a money from the fans rinsing exercise)

£120 for a Europa League official match-ball is the real shock. Crikey.

As others have said, no one is making you buy it, there are bigger problems in the world to worry about.
The club or Nike are not taking the piss, they are simply trying to maximise profit that can be funnelled back into the playing side of the club, be it youth, women's or first team.

I'm with #worthingseagull on this.
We need only 1 x away, 1 x third, 1 x European, 1 x training indoors, 1 x training outdoors, 1 x training warm weather country, 1 x coach (as in what they wear in the coach), 1 x for TV interviews, 1 x in disguise and the traditional blue & white stripes.

Have we signed Stephen Bear?

More concerned about training in a white-ish kit on grass...

It would be a particularly cruel challenge to force anyone to (try to) buy anything specific from the club shop.

Locating the Holy Grail is likely to be an easier challenge.

Who the hell is he? Never heard, seen or care about him

I realise that, so are you saying we should only post on here if you want to comment about one of the worlds biggest problems ??

Might as well close NSC down then
