Their total turnover last year was £1.75million. Yikes.

Blimey. Was wondering so thanks for adding that context.

Yeah, fair enough

Be nice if gus was modelling it

Personally, I like it, though I am a retro fan and that early 90s shirt brings back fond memories. Though it does look like Hummel have merged two shirts to get this latest one....

And maybe Saddlebrains is right and the club have struggled to get a sponsor. Any port in a storm. And it may only be a filler. 6 months later, we could do a deal with a.n.other and replace it. The shirt I think is a fixed entity according to the EFL, as we've seen shirt sponsored be removed before, that aspect certainly isn't.

Wheres this from? Only a balance sheet in their official accounts.

Intellectual Property: King of Shaves may not be as small business as some are making out...

I hated this one

Might be my favourite kit. Beautiful thing.

That's turnover though. £200k spent on sponsoring us seems... unlikely

 

[pusbccfc]

The long sleeves look horrendous.

Why?

 

[usskyblue]

New kit can be this fucker for all I care, as long as Hamer’s wearing it this season

 

[Gint11]

Like the main bit of the shirt, don’t like the long arms.

Yes I know and yes I agree.

King of Shaves is a good product by the way. I've been using it for years and years, first the oils and then the gels. I didn't even know it was English, nevermind King

aye, the latest razors are really top quality.

The way some people talk about them on here you'd think they were selling cheaper razors down cov market

 

[Skyblueweeman]

Rancid. Embarrasing. Disgusting.

Fuck me, some people take things way too seriously.

 

[nicksar]

The club have clearly adopted the old Barcelona shirt sposorship model when they used to pay UNICEF to have them as shirt sponsors.

 

[Marty]

I quite like it, sponsor logo fits with the colour scheme and fairly clean. Shame you can't order with names and numbers yet, I want to get my Hamer shirt before he's sold.

 

[KarmicChris]

Hummel’s Twitter has a non-sponsored version, we’re also the only club this season not to have it pictured being worn, every other Hummel release has players wearing them. Strange but shows how last minute the sponsor must’ve been. Weird how we teased the back sponsor too, no one would be excited about a back of the shirt sponsor

A lot on here haven't started using one yet

That sounds low to me - where’s the data from?

Great kits by the way, like them

unfortunately we didn’t all get our wish, so the ‘let’s announce with kit theory’ has been ruled out

 

[Ccfcisparks]

In their accounts they have trade debtors of nearly £400k. Find it hard to believe they would have receivables at nearly 25% of revenue for the year.

all I see saying it is that low is a site that estimates turnover for investment purposes

 

[David O'Day]

Yep it is the site where someone without seeing the books has estimated the turnover

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Just estimates then.

 

[skyblu3sk]

From 2014 but would be quite a decline!

I was just thinking I don’t know where people find the energy to get so angry and wound up at stuff. Not just here but at the games, at work, day to day life. Usually at the most trivial things as well.

Bit of a difference!

The accounts are now small company accounts so only declare the balance sheet

Doesn't necessarily mean the revenue has to be £1/2m can go up to £10m without having to report a P&L.

He's recently had deals with Waitrose and John Lewis

Cool, really doesn't have anything to do with the conversation which was people saying the stated turnover seemed too low but thanks for your input.

One of our best ever kits

Each to their own. I liked the one before it with Big Cyrille in the shop window of every William Hill's around the country.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Interesting that a large amount of fans from other teams seem to like the kit, but think the sponsor ruins it.

 

[SeaSeeEffCee]

Why?

Plain sleeves with a striped shirt look bad enough as it is but even worse when the shade of blue isn’t even the same.
