The blue one looks particularly smart. Nice touches with the end of an era badge and the stars.

Now if they can make one large enough so that it doesn't figure hug around the waist line then I might just be tempted. However Billy Smarts does spring to mind in the design process it it's gonna fit me. ;) Might just have to settle for getting the kids kitted out as usual.

So, based on the player sponsorship board photo, we really *have* signed this Rory Winters guy...

I don't know if pen has been put to contract but as you can see his name is on the board. Quinny has been busy on the official site but I haven't seen an article confirming the deal, yet.

On the same photo, there's no sign of Lewis Edge. Has he quietly moved on, or was he an unintentional absence from the list?

Wasn't he just on a short-term contract anyway?

Lewis was only with us on any contracted basis for 3 months. He stayed at the club on a day-to-day basis after that. The board used at the sponsors do isn't a definitive list.

They normally have "New signing 1, 2 and 3" as well don't they?

Like the kit, very smart. The commemorative side is a very nice touch too.

Training and leisurewear looks cool too.

In the 1980's we had kits of similar style, just a bit different to what we have had for the last decade or so and it might take me a while to get used to it. I like all the little touches; the two stars (Wembley wins I assume) and the commemorative Christie badge above the crest. I think it will sell well, as it symbolises our time at Christie Park and it is different to what most fans have now.

I think both kits look great, nice touches "end of era" etc, but will the home and away kits have different style necks as the pics suggest? Unusual. :?

Sounds like there's a huge vote of agreement about this seasons excellent kit. Let's just hope that it sells in volume; after all it'll be a poignant reminder of the clubs final season at CP. :( :( :( ;) ;) ;)

The new kit looks quite smart. I like the stars and the end of era badges.

There wasn't a goalie's shirt for the photos on saturday but there will be. I don't think it will be available in the shop though.

Why wouldn't Stanners be staying?

I know, he's contracted and so far the only players to leave are those whose contracts were expiring...

Spoke to him at the end of last season and he seemed unsure of whether he was part of
SMs future plans.

Yeah I saw £25000 but Les assured me there was a decimal point after the first zero so don't get excited! :lol:
