Like I've said before, our commercial/marketing relates to the dark ages 

 

Which is strange as we brought in that marketing expert Palmer to improve these types of things.  Tho I guess we have a new website and maybe a marquee signing will be announced with the new shirt

 

:duntmatter:

Even the piggies have released their new shirt for next season ,addidas agsin, it's embarrassing that we do this every pre season !

 

The problem is you're using them as a benchmark. In the grand scheme of things, how early our new shirts are made available means virtually nothing in the world of football. If it was so important every club would get their shirts on sale at the end of the previous season. They don't, because it's so far down the list of priorities. If the only bragging rights they have over us is that their replica shirts are on sale earlier than ours then I'm happy to let them have it.

Never understood this obsession with Kit launch dates and genuinely why is it embarrassing that someone else has released theirs earlier than us

It's not just someone else it's EVERYBODY else!

And it's been going on for years.

I'm embarrassed that we've got fans who're embarrassed about a kit launch.  Embarrassing...

but whats the obsession, whats the difference between being first or last, I honestly don't get why people get so worked up over it

 

Also Some might say its genius by DC as the last 2 seasons have been late releases and have broken sales records each time, maybe hes just building up the demand to feverish levels to sell more

We aren't that clever mate, seriously. You need to have a commercial/Marketing strategy to think ahead like that....

The obsession is not around the kit per se, it's our woeful and jurassic way of commercialising our brand

Exactly. 

 

I'm sure adults are not bothered, but I waited impatiently when I was a kid. Virtually wore it every day out playing footy and on summer holiday.

the commercialising of our brand I agree with I think a lot more should have been made of the return to our traditional badge

 

but maybe and just playing devils advocate that the Kit launch is part of a big 150th announcement and he doesn't want it same time as everyone else and will make a big deal of things

 

either way I'm not getting worked up about it

I'm not getting worked up either but if DC financialises all our missed revenue opportunities i'm sure he would be worked up

The thing with the shirts though, is that most people who want it will end up buying it regardless. There won't be many people who will only buy it if it's available by a certain date, so it's not going to lose much revenue if it's not available until later on. Maybe there will be a handful of fans like that, but not many.
