Good to see the club attracting a sponsor.......... Must admit I massively disappointed with the kit though. Looks so cheap with the "stickered" on logo and badges.

Totally agree spoilt the shirt, feel sorry for the players that have to play in a weightier shirt now. I don't like it, it reminds me of that red rose logo we had many moons ago.

But at least they haven't got 'Wham' plastered across their chests - that could have led to a whole new host of abuse!!

There is going to be a nightmare with the kit tho in all seriousness, like how it's washed cos it will mark, unpealing in corners - oh & will crinkle & crack! Obviously somebody who knows nothing about shirt printing came up with it!

It's much bigger aka teletubbie design so will feel more stiff up front so will feel a bit weightier, I bet the players have noticed it.

Re: Stadium new name.
And the new shirt sponsor - if it didn't look like a big white plastic box I would question their branding? Unintentional genius
