All contracts with Canterbury Europe were cancelled with imediate effect when the company went into administration.
I read a comment from someone at Warrington the other day saying that Wires + Canterbury had paid up/delivered on this seasons contract so Wires come out reletavely unscathed. Preston North End FC have been really hit by it as canterbury were supposed to be supplying their new kits which were due to be launched a couple of days after canterbury went into admin.

Also JD sports, JJB sports + Kugga are all at least partially owned by Mr Whealan.

Ok - memo to the club DO NOT SIGN WITH ANY OF THESE 3!!!!!!!!!!!!

Canterbury had an initial 3 year contract with Warrington. Not heard anything this year however.

Im not kidding when I say that the owner of a sports company is in the room next to me, and it sounds like he could be taking over the assets. I've definitely heard Portsmouth & Gloucester mentioned, as well as Rugby League.

Until anything's made public however, i'm not at liberty to mention names.

any chance you could possibly name several sports company leaders names at random, and possibly include a certain persons name?

I could if I could be bothered to



I'll just say that the bloke who owns the company has a fantastic accent. That is all.

Not Adi Dasler and his infamous black forest twang?!

Translation: I'm cleaning our works bogs, and there's a fella in the next stall having an important-sounding conversation on his mobile. No idea who he is though as I don't like making eye-contact with senior managers because they could fire me for looking at them funny.

Bearing in mind we had Canterbury kits in 2007 (blue with V), 2008 (blue) and 2009 (white with V), wouldn't this be the 3rd year of the 3?

It would actually take less effort and time to type the guys name than type that sentence.



Good for him, it doesn't have any impact on Warrington though, contracts have been voided.

He must have missed his meeting with the marketing team though.
