scotty189 925 Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 Any leaked pics, info. Just come across this little beauty Denmark's 3rd for the upcoming euro's. Would love something like that with a band of course. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
RiseAgainst 3,777 Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 That's rather lovely, isn't it? Mind you, we'd doubtlessly ruin even a top this attractive with the garish logo of a gambling company, pawnbroker or knocking shop. We haven't had a respectable sponsor since Garmin. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
TeaCider24 12,402 Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 Manky. I am honestly a huge fan of the general style of this season's kit, just not a great fan of the material. Last season's was really nice too. Hopefully next season is another knockout. Link to post Share on other sites
wilsoncgp 9,230 Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 I honestly really liked the full red kits, the one the year we got promoted and the one from I think 07/08. Link to post Share on other sites
nunthorpered 1,920 Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 Hummel are the best kits we have had in ages. Im sure they will be class 1 Link to post Share on other sites
smogsterking the Inspirati 2,453 Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 Am I right in thinking our shirt sponsors ended this season? It would be nice to see the shirt without the sponsor on like a few seasons ago. I'm still hoping for that green kit. I think although not Hummel this would be a nice design if they are still hoping for a nostalgic look. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

The 32red deal was due to expire at the end of last season so unless they've extended it we should see something new. I wouldn't mind if they stuck the airports name on the kit or something. Would be way better than having a gambling sponsor. 4 Link to post Share on other sites

I hope they keep Zoes Place sponsor on the kids kits as well. Link to post Share on other sites

Neverbefore 10,695 Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 I hope we get two stinkers cause I've committed to not spending any money on the club till Warnock is gone haha 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Redcar Rioja 5,872 Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 So long as it incorporates a band to keep and build an identity that is instantly recognisable from the Forest and Liverpool kits etc. I can live with it. To me that should be the foundational starting point of a Boro Shirt and just for the avoidance of doubt a sash isn't a band. Sponsorship is a necessary evil in this day and age unfortunately. I would prefer a sponsor that didn't destroy lives but the nature of Football attracts organisations who ply their trade on misery in a lot of cases so it's more likely to be another gambling company who will stump up the cash. I have often wondered if Bulkhaul would gain more than they would lose in terms of marketing by sponsoring the Shirts? 4 Link to post Share on other sites
Will 2,958 Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 Like the Denmark top, but I think making it a Boro top with a white band would ruin that design. I am very happy with a few of the Hummel designs I've seen released so far so I'm looking forward to ours. Link to post Share on other sites
Essuuaitch 330 Posted May 26, 2021 Share Posted May 26, 2021 here we go again white band gate vol 54. its purely down to personal opinion , i get that, but it divides our fans . Me, im not a diehard supporter of having it but there again im not totally a diehard of the actual red and white being the templateto work with. almost every team that has tried variations akin to the band has failed ,the only two exceptions that have been completely successful in varying to a design or style that has become synonamous with thier identity are Ajax and Arsenal. the white band was wonderful in its original conception back in 73 but subsequent horrendous versions ruined its appal to me, yeah it was nice to see a return to it ,if only for nostalgic reasons but dont clambour for it year after year. its not our identity , it was a very neat conception in its original form, but it has outrun its ways of being utilised or redesigned. indded, ive also wondered why weve never gone along the stripe route with the home shirt as both newcastle and sunderland are instantly recognisable and associated with striped shirts , even hartlepool if that adds any weight to the sentence. 2 Link to post Share on other sites

The fact that it's instantly associated with Newcastle and Sunderland is reason enough to not do it, they've both played in that style for over a hundred years. Sunderland play in red and white and our nearest rival. We play in red and white. If we randomly started playing in stripes after virtually no history of doing so, it would absolutely look like mimicry of Sunderland. The pinstripes in 15/16 were bad enough. Should always have the band for me, barring Bristol City occasionally copying it, we're one of the few teams to use it and it's identifiable.
