New kit (1 Viewer)

[CJ_covblaze]

Just been informed the new kit will hopefully be on sale in October.

This is due to the club not being able to raise a large purchase order and ties in with Appleton saying we'll be out of admin in October at the earliest.

It is hoped however that there might be some spare from the players kit that can be sold to supporters.

October..

Sounds like I might as well buy my new home shirt for myself at Christmas.

 

[ccfc92]

Lmao. If this is true, this is a total mess.

 

[Sisued]

Will it be Skyblue or was there a cheaper colour SISU could use?

 

[jabharty]

What a farce this club is becoming. Can't even buy the club shirt.

 

[quinn1971]

If were in northampton it wont matter..nobody is going to buy it are they ?@notonepennymore

 

[torchomatic]

White. No dye needed.

Maybe ACL will buy the rights to the kit off the club, then charge us £1000 a pop for it, but tell everyone they're being fair cos we can buy it if we want.

 

[Sbarcher]

What a hoot if ACL/Ricoh sponsored the kit!!

 

[shmmeee]

maybe acl will buy the rights to the kit after the club ran out of money with a below market rate agreed on return. Then the club can turn down several offers of a changed deal and finally refuse to pay for the kit in the hope of getting it below te rate they paid in the first place

ftfy

You need to be more specific

Doesn't matter, no-ones buying it anyway.

Interesting that they're saying they can't raise a large purchase order. Otium/CCFC Holdings aren't in administration, so there's nothing stopping them raising a PO as far as I can see it (whether anyone would trust them with credit is a different matter). Obviously they've had to make some sort of financial commitment to Northampton.

Could it be that this points to some doubt on SISU's part with regard to whether they will actually own the club, post-administration?

Sorry, appreciate this isn't actually about the kit itself...

 

[Jack Griffin]

Indeed it means they may even be thinking of exiting.

Or it may be something to do with failing to get sponsors.

TF (on the phone to Primark): That's correct - 3000 of your cheapest white 'T' shirts, and a pair of blue socks. And, erm, can I borrow your washing machine please, someone stuck a balloon in ours and it's broken.

So the players will play in a new kit but we just can't buy it?

if the players had a new kit wouldn't they be playing the pre season games in it?

It is this bit that made me think that:

Baker, sell us a sock, Baker, Baker sell us a sock!!

 

[letsallsingtogether]

[skybluejelly]

They can all have FOR SALE on them

 

[CCFC_Charlie]

We're wearing last season's kit until the end of September :facepalm:

 

[CJ_covblaze]

They told me this morning the players kit was 'currently on its' way'. How bloody long dies it take to deliver?

Depends if city link are delivering it

I work for a company that makes elite sport tops. We operate a 3 week turnaround and we are about the quickest there is as we're all British made. I'm guessing Puma could be several months. If our admin caused a delay in the order it could seriously delay us getting the kit.

The larger companies operating using fabric and sublimation from abroad which is a lot slower. If we've only just recently put in an order then Sept sounds about right.

The club is a shambles and the laughing stock of the football league. I just hope this time next year this will be a distant memory. 12 months on, at the Ricoh, SISU gone with new owners in, nice new home and away kit with sponsors, decent players getting ready for a high profile friendly.

Depends if they're waiting for the cheque to clear before dispatch.
