I imagine the attached will be the new shirt?
Christ! I hope not.
The likes of Luke Young and McGinty will carry it off and I'm sure Sam Chaney will love it but with my physique I'll be hunting for the XXXL size. :aww: l'll be sticking with last season's shirt with the silly flappy collar.

Pro-Direct were approached a long time ago now and a deal was in place, but there was a long standing agreement with Vandenel at the time and a certain female chief executive scuppered the idea!

The previous deal that was proposed was completely unrealistic and quoted championship minimums which would be a crazy deal for a club of our size. This deal sounds much more realistic and surely the kudos of having Nike on the shirt will be a big positive without the commitment of thousands of shirts that wouldn't sell?!

I don't know what it's like for kits nowadays but all of the US kits (MLS clubs, and national side) have the option to buy either 'authentic' or 'replica' versions. The replica version has a slightly different cut that is more forgiving for those of us who have...expanded a bit.
