[Albion] New kit, with Amex sponsorship

[Rookie]

Don't like it don't buy it I'm sure there will be a few thousand that do buy it. Surely the bigger question is will we get to see Bridcutt wear it in competitive action next season rather than just modelling the thing

 

[B52]

Hmm. Not sure about that. Too much white, and the sponsor logo is stretched on GG, who is NOT a fatty. Will look awful on fatties.

Best start the diet then

How much sponsorship we getting then, I may change my mind from a "its ok I guess" to "its wonderful, the best shirt ever"

 

[Mr Putdown]

American Express are a worldwide brand, British Caledonian were not - this is bar far the biggest sponsorship deal we have ever had. In fact there are not many bigger brands sponsoring in the Premiership. I believe that this is the first time Amex have ever sponsored a sports team anywhere. They have previously sponsored major US sporting events and had deal with organisations such as the NBA. This is huge for the club. Oh by the way the new shirt is slowly growing on me.

Amex sponsor several basketball teams in the USA.

is it bad that i REALLY like it?

less stripes yes, but it still looks good (unlike Portos kit this year which is dirt)
i HATE collars on shirts, so another plus for me
it has stripes on the back, another big plus

Only thing im unsure about is the yellow trim, if its striped on the back will we have yellow numbers/names?

I believe there are agreements, as per the NBA, but I am not aware of the type of deal we have got, such as shirts.

The important thing, shirley, is that this shirt graces the PREMIER LEAGUE rather than the CHAMPIONSHIP next season? To me that's the ONLY important thing...

Sorry but can't be arsed to trawl through all the pages, but any clue on the away kit next season colours wise

No. I think it's GORGEOUS.

I agree - I really like it.

Would love to see it with yellow numbers in a retro square font on the back...

 

[Tim Over Whelmed]

I'm in the minority, I love it. Just understand why Amex don't centralise their two words though, other than that thumbs up!

 

[Wozza]

Agree that the colours should have been reversed - white on blue, not blue on white.

 

[HawkTheSeagull]

May I ask why?

Just because their name is all over the club already - just hope it doesnt lead to anymore.

 

[LamieRobertson]

I don't like it on first viewing will have to see it in the shop. Stripes are too wide looks cheap.

I'd agree with that

 

[Hyperion]

Front on it looks horrid. However, from a slight side angle and the back it looks quite nice. Undecided about it as of yet

 

[Mackenzie]

Looks a bit crap to me, but then it is a football kit so I guess its supposed to be.

 

[portslade seagull]

No guess's on how much the sponsorship is worth ?

 

[Davemania]

Really does look shit, i'll be sticking with my current shirt

 

[Hyperion]

No details will be released about the deal in terms of worth or length.
