Guest oa_exile Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 RE: Fishul site latest on the new kit... Dont think they're quite listening, i dont have a problem with the material its crap embroidery and the fact it runs in the wash! Nice of them to advertise its selling well think they forgot to mention they have had to send a load back! Hope the club do chop these cowboys when there contract's up in the meantime i think they should be a little more truthfull as to why there isnt any in the shop! Stop moaning, anyone would think you had been ripped off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaskedOwl Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 If carlotti made a mess of things earlier then why in gods name did we give them another contract? its not just this cock up that has annoyed me. the club shop is poor fullstop. getting my shirt and printing on the back was a joke last year.

leeslover Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 Oi ! How would I know I wasnt around in 1936 ......... ask Diego I told you already I know about this from 27 years experience int' Textile business Well, my dad has about 40 years in the textile business, and the first thing he usually does after buying a garment is to sit down and eat a pork product of some description. So that shows what your advice is worth. PS, I can't believe Rudemedic doesn't think football shirts are good in hot weather - are you serious? They are scientifically designed to stop people overheating in testing conditions, there's nothing better when the sun is out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leeslover Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 Oh, and... can someone who's actually seen both the Latics one and the Chelsea one in the flesh tell me how similar they are? I saw a chav in a Chelsea one this evening and I felt a sense of dread come over me that I might be wearing one of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, ask your Dad about the cycle of fabric to manufacturing and thereafter especially the time,shipping and storage conditions all through the process Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are chemical products that you can add to the fabric that change the feel of the fabric on your body dependant your body heat , cold to hot conditions.

Inspiral_Carpet Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 Well, ask your Dad about the cycle of fabric to manufacturing and thereafter especially the time,shipping and storage conditions all through the process More importantly, what is Barry Scott's advice? That man is a true expert and his recommendations must be followed religiously when it comes to domestic matters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No they're designed to be strong enough to withstand pulls, tugs etc. all of which are involved in football whilst being cool (and that's the posh modern ones worn by the pros not necessarily the replicas they sell to the public). The best thing to wear in hot conditions is something light-weight such as cotton or linnen which are readily availible at half the price of an over-priced football shirt.

jsslatic Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 Let me put it this way ....... the first thing i ever do with a purchased garment is wash it before i wear it. I wont go into why Probably because it would already be covered in Marmite and Bovril by the time you get home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stitch_KTF Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 I would imagine they make a lesser profit margin and Nike will most probably take a cut in the sales. If I was responsible for this kind of thing at Nike I would be more much more interested in maximising the number of clubs supplied then an extra percentage of Rochdale F.C's merchendising revenue.

Yes - Exile's shirt would be covered in petrol syphoned from someone else's tank and ink from his giro. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diego_Sideburns Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 Oi ! How would I know I wasnt around in 1936 ......... ask Diego That's even before my time but I've looked up the case. Part of the evidence related to underpants which when worn resuted in an inflammation of the bloodstream, with serious consequences. It was deemed that the appellant was satisfied by the appearance of the underpants; he could not detect, and had no reason to suspect, the hidden presence of the sulphites: the garments were saleable in the sense that the appellant, or any one similarly situated and who did not know of their defect, would readily buy them: but they were not merchantable in the statutory sense because their defect rendered them unfit to be worn next the skin. It may be that after sufficient washing that defect would have disappeared; but the statute requires the goods to be merchantable in the state in which they were sold and delivered; in this connection a defect which could easily be cured is as serious as a defect that would not yield to treatment. Of couse not all itches in the underpant region are attributable to hidden sulphites. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ebbsfleet United (MyFootballClub) has a contract with Nike for shirts and Nike delivers to the Club as and when stock is needed to avoid storage problems. Obviously it's much different from Latics, with approx 30,000 members, many of whom will buy shirts even if they don't watch the team. In Oldham people who don't watch the team are content that they already have the Premier League shirts from the glory years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have, although in the last 5 years it's been more a case of 45 minutes of trying not to puke or faint rather than worrying about sweating, especially with a Yorkshire snow-blizzard looming. I find modern replica shirts very light and airy in hot weather, the key thing being that they won't stick to you even if you do get a bit minging.

That's OK - he used to be my stalker. I understand they are quite partial to Bovril and Marmite in Southport - it's not purely a Midland thing, despite what leeslover says.

Simpo Posted June 26, 2008 Share Posted June 26, 2008 Someone said most League One teams keep their kit for ages, this is not actually the case, many teams actually have a new HOME kit every year as well as an away one. Swansea also bring out a new away kit every 6 months. Also, lower league teams with the likes of Adidas and Nike actually do their deals with UK subsidary companies, the kind who do "Get a Nike kit for your team!" deals. You'll notice they're just the same design on all of them but with different colours. Here are some other League One kits, for comparison: Carlotti - Scunthorpe Away Adidas - Peterborough Home Adidas - Peterborough Away Kits (note the black kit is exactly the same as Derby's away kit!!!) Vandanel - Northampton Home Vandanel - Yeovil Away Nike - Hartlepool Away Errea - Bristol Rovers Home Errea - Cheltenham Home & Away Puma - Leyton Orient Home & Away Jako - Leicester Home swift? - Walsall Home & Away Mitre - Huddersfield Home Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
