I also bought a south Sydney shirt for a Xmas present and it is head and shoulders above our shirts in quality especially our home shirts that look very poorly made.'"
I'd hazard a guess that we use gold because it is on our badge....

| Personally I prefer the polo shirts that we produce. They can be worn mostly anywhere, unlike rugby/football shirts, and ours these last few seasons have been well smart with just the sponsors logo and our badge.

| Quote: Kosh "Then I don't understand the point you were trying to make.
Part of the value the club offers to sponsors is 10K 'walking adverts'. Offer a replica shirt without adverts and you instantly reduce the value of the club to sponsors. And I seriously doubt you'd sell enough extra shirts to make up the shortfall.
Not sure I like either shirt enough to buy one TBH. I'll probably spend the cash on other merchandise this year. But the fact is that the folk spending £40 on a 'walking hoarding' are supporting the club twice over - once from the purchase price and once from the added value for sponsors.'"
You buy a shirt plastered with various company logos you are also buying into those brands so to speak. You are supporting that brand.
For an example, would you if you where a Newcastle fan or Blackpool fan want to associate yourself with a loan shark company who are preying on thousands of peoples misery and hardship? i am also a City fan and will not buy a shirt with a 'pawn brokers company' on the shirt.
I'm not saying there is anything wrong with our sponsors but i dont know them, have had no dealings with any of them and have no wish to pay for the privilage of advertising for them.
I know there will be some who would buy a shirt whatever it had on the front and thats up to them, but like you i would probably spend my money on other merchandise within the club. the whole replica kit market is a complete rip off and has being robbing the fans for years,

| Like the away kit, better than the home IMO. Think this has been the case with a few teams for this season, Wigan, Catalans, Cas all good away shirts.

To be fair though, the chances of those sponsors staying on the shirt for a full season are slim at best.

Whilst I understand the sentiment I'm curious to know if your morality extends to all areas of your life? Wearing a clothing brand that use's sweatshops or a phone that was made exploiting cheap labour is you being a billboard for un-ethical companies, probably far worse than the 'loan sharks' on football shirts. If you have no dealings with any company that can be considered morally questionable then I commend you, however I strongly doubt this is the case, which makes your sports shirt specific morality rather flawed.
Completely agree about the replica shirt rip off though, complete scam.

If you are not part of the solution then you are more likely part of the problem...: |
|
| Off to buy the home shirt tomorrow in preparation for the new season.
Not overly keen on either shirt, much prefer the irregular hoops, but I understand the need for change from a commercial point of view.

Tickets are now being sold from the ticket office again, not the club shop.

| Well it's about destroyed my wallet but I now own both shirts ![DANCE icon_biggrin.gifANCE:](images/smilies//eusa_dance.gif) (home and what should have been home! ![Laughing icon_lol.gif](images/smilies//icon_lol.gif) )
Out of the two I think the away shirt (still think it would have been a better home shirt ![Wink icon_wink.gif](images/smilies//icon_wink.gif) ) immediately says 'Hull FC' for some reason, even though people are comparing it to a Widnes shirt
Does anyone with inside knowledge know if there are any charity/one-off shirts planned for this year? I quite liked, but never got round to buying ![Sad icon_sad.gif](images/smilies//icon_sad.gif) , the Help For Heroes one and I remember we had that pink one as well.

| Got the away shirt yesterday, and have to say it is the best fitting shirt we've had for a long while, as the shirt is made up of several 'panels' and isn't just a T-shape of 2 un-shaped pieces like in previous years.
the only bad part is the low quality KC sponsor on the back, which looks like a last-minute ironed on effort, the other sponsors are either a much better quality heat-seal or in-printed in to the material.

| Was in Hull yesterday so we paid a visit to the Saville St shop. I don't mind the design of either the home or away shirt, but the quality was very very poor, particularly on the home shirt. Not put together very well at all. Surprising, because ISC have generally been good in other years. Money stayed firmly in pocket.
Note to Hull FC marketing dept - must improve if you want good return from merchandising.
