Great idea, I might have gone for it if I didn't have the home shirt (which I quite like). I buy a shirt every 3/4 years depending on styles. The irregular hoops I have and now a V style, they will become retro eventually and people who buy this will have a cool Hull shirt for the future.
I don't see a problem? It would only be unfair on fans if this replaced the home kit for the season, which it isn't. This is a one off momento, buy or don't buy, it's really that simple!

If fans can afford all three then why not. It's the fans choice to buy whichever shirt they want, in fact your not even obliged to buy any shirt or a season pass or even support the club you love. Unfortunately I could only afford the home shirt this season but I would not hesitate to buy the Magic shirt if funds allowed. I like to be given choice and Hull are doing that. How would Next survive if they only retailed one shirt in their store.

so lets put it in context...... season pass £230, home shirt £45, away shirt £45, "magic" shirt £45... total
As I said, you really do have a low opinion of your fellow fans. You seem to think they're all mugs incapable of making an informed decision for themselves.

You realise that there are costs associated with signing players that don't count on the cap? Or that the club has other costs - training facilities for one - that don't count on the cap? In your world we should stop trying to make money once we hit the cap limit?
Deary me.  |

He was right in the end: |

| Quote: ZACH "It might not go directly but it all goes towards the club. A club that is a business. Now if you want bucket collections like we did for Bradford, or want a foreign knight in shinning armour like Salford or simply want us to merge again with another bankrupt club then stick to your stance. That is the stark reality of sport in today's world.
Nobody complains when they release yet more T shirts, shorts, fridge magnets, packets of over priced but branded sweets. This shirt is simply another item that you can choose to purchase or not.
I have bought one, but that's a relief to me as I don't like our kits this year. Personal choice.'"
As i say Wire can turn over £6mill without shirt overload |

tbh the shirt is really nice. don't understand the problem with some of you getting at the club and fans for the shirt if people want to put money into the club and buy the home away and magic shirt whats that got to do with you?
why is it a bad thing? they are bringing more merchandise out for the old faithful if u like you buy and if u don't like u don't buy simples!!!

Your saying this as though Hull FC are forcing this shirt to be bought! It's a choice! If you like, buy, if you don't, don't. Simples.

In this case though it does open up additional revenue streams (bars etc.) and so contribute to turnover. |

There was always an argument (mainly levelled at football clubs) that they were fleecing fans by bringing out multiple shirts in a season, to the end that they limitted it to changing the away one year and the home the next (although I think this is not the case now).
The argument was mainly around kids always wanting the newest kit and parents being 'forced' into buying these shirts so their kids weren't seen as out of date.
The only thing I wonder is that is the magic weekend really such a special event as to warrant a special one off shirt?

Yeah, I'm well aware what turnover is and if you have an asset which generates income then it certainly does affect turnover. Think before you post |
