Said bloke here. I said its a rough guess. Threw it together in 5 minutes and somehow people are thinking it's an actual leak. I mean look at it, I just painted the cambridge kit and threw the badge and sponsor on

I actually reckon it’ll be something similar, maybe a little bit better

I was so sick on that about 30 yrs ago in Florence, almost missed the plane the next morning.
Luckily saved by a colleague from another hotel.

It tends to be seen here as medicinal (or so they claim), not that I’m complaining.

Today the day? Or are we pissing in the wind still?
Gut feeling is they want to drag this out as long as possible so I think Friday. Perhaps clever marketing ploy, but it's frankly disappointed me a little.
Be nice to have some transparency on something as simple as this rather than 'end of July, Start of August, month before the season starts', etc.
And yes I get it's only a new shirt, not the end of the world!

If the report of them only doing player photographs yesterday is true then I doubt they could do it any earlier than today. Realistically by the end of the week seems more feasible, since they’ll have a whole pipeline of stuff connected to getting those photographs produced and plugged into all the appropriate places.

The oracle Dawkins was wrong, the club tweeted someone back that the shoot was done Monday not yesterday so i suppose it is possible
Surely you could apply that logic to football itself, in particular posting on a football forum....? 'Jesus it's 11 men kicking a ball around a field, why do you care so much'.

I know, I think it is a bit of a laugh and I just see it as a bit of fun. It was clearly put back because of trying to seal a sponsor and now it's just building up anticipation.

The club literally said last Friday that the launch would be this week. I think that is being pretty clear and transparent. I also would assume that the sort of vague responses several weeks ago was not knowing when the sponsor would be sorted. So to the clubs credit they actually humour a lot of clowns on twitter constantly asking about it day after day and try to make as much contact as possible.
To me it is something to look forward to.

Why does he make up shit like that? So pointless.

That only lasts as long as it takes for him to get a reputation as a bullshitter, at which point he’ll be called out and ignored. It’s a very short-lived strategy.

Well seeming as there’s no transfers happening we’ve gotta have something announced to keep us entertained

So they've announced the friendly double header will be pay per view. Surely that means the kit released by Friday and worn for these matches? Can't see why they'd wait until after?

If the photo shoot was Monday, then they will ant to touch up the photos etc. Will also be working with Hummel to get the branding and background imagery right, as well as setting up everything for the website/shop etc. There could possibly be a launch video or seomthing similar being created, all of which takes time.
We know the kits coming this week, at the most it will be 3 more days. Yesterday saw the friendly, which would've directed social media/website hits anyway, why not wait for a quieter day for it and maximise the impact?
Tynan Scope also said last night that 1000 have bee pre-ordered, so the wait isn't having a negative impact
