marn11 Posted September 14, 2019 Report Share Posted September 14, 2019 1 hour ago, Dylan said: To add a bit of perspective. I was disappointed with what was released as describe as a ‘full range’ but having a look at other aleague clubs they all seem to get the same range from their kit manufacturers. So I wouldn’t be surprised if this was some kind of FFA restrictive measure. So hopefully this changes next season on and that god awful generic range is banished and the puma stuff expanded Thought I heard somewhere that the clubs have FFA imposed range restrictions on merch every year?

Well if you want a nitpick answer, known as a legaly type of answer, you could say that yes independent of the FFA but not of the league. Ie there are probably some kind of contracts that are bounding for the league but not the FFA. But we can all agree. The home kit this year is soo very bad Edited September 14, 2019 by Dylan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least it’s not a stuck on Etihad logo like the last nike one I hope that one day they bring back the red and white as our primary colour... still soo much better than sky blue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The home kit this year is soo very bad There is a limit on what clubs can sell from their own manufacturers. IIRC its 8 pieces but they are pushing it every year to try and do more. FFA has their generic stuff which has to be used. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dylan Posted October 4, 2019 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2019 I know it’s blasphemy for any criticism towards heart or a red and white kit but if it’s the same we have had the last 5 years then it’s as bad as the new home kit imo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The new puma stuff in general looks a little more loose than the Nike kits. Shorts seem big and there is little room around the arms, definitely not slim fit or like the other skin tops from Puma some years back.

Don't adjust your mind - it's a fault with reality. I'm not surprised. A while ago I e-mailed the club about a particular photograph - can't recall now which one, but I think it was a visa player signing - and asked where the backdrop to the image was - a studio, or somewhere at CFA Manchester. But I never received a reply. I don't think that the left hand knows what the right is doing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn't an adverse comment in any way - just an enquiry as to where the photograph was taken. I can't really see any reason why member would not warrant at least an acknowledgement.
