On one of the photos, if you look closely, you can see the 'sponsor' stripe is basically a white sticker over the shirt. I think they'll be winding everyone up and a version without the sticker will be released before the season. Fair do's though they've gone to town with it by playing in it tonight and even convinced the FA that it's genuine.

Also interesting how Huddersfield were able to complete a game at Rochdale on a pitch that looked absolutely perfect. Makes me wonder what the real reason was that our game was cancelled and moved to behind closed doors.

That article says that it will be going on sale on Saturday - judging my their fans reactions, I wouldnt be bringing in any additional clubshop staff to deal with the demand.

Just a clever marketing gimmick, sponsor would illegal in league matches under FA rules.

        On Football Boots

 

Except as permitted by paragraphs B1 – 5 above, the appearance of any Advertising of any description, including sponsors’ designations, on a Player’s Football Boots is prohibited.

No sponsor Advertising is permitted anywhere on the Clothing of a Player on the field of play during a match except as provided for in this part C.

• Once only on each sock tie-up providing it does not exceed an area of 100 square centimetres (see Fig 11).

 

One or more company may be advertised and, in respect of any one company, one or more of its products. The same Advertising must appear in the same form on the Clothing of all Players and Club Officials, wherever such Advertising appears, throughout the entirety of the match.

 

(b)                    Any Advertising under C2(i) must be clearly separated from the items described in B above.

3.                       Clubs may conclude sponsorship arrangements with different companies in respect of Advertising permitted under C2(i) above for both their ‘home’ and ‘away’ strips. Where Competition rules allow for a third strip to be worn, this may carry Advertising as worn on either the “home” or “away” shirt. The third strip may carry an alternative sponsor advertisement with the permission of the Competition. The Advertising must appear in the same form on the Clothing of all Players and Club Officials wherever such Advertising appears, throughout the entirety of the match.

 

4.                       Clubs with more than one team may conclude separate shirt Advertising agreements in respect of each of its teams.

Any other Club may include the name of a sponsor in its playing name with the prior written consent of its Affiliated Association and where such consent is given, Advertising on behalf of one company only shall be carried on the Club’s match shirts irrespective of the provisions of B(4) and C2(i) above

Publicity stunt or not! I say it's daft and irresponsible to get everyone talking about PP.

I'm so glad to see my local town is now PP-free since they capped the Unlimited time-out and fixed bet odds. Karma!

[SIMON GARNERS 194]

It may be daft but it served it's purpose...got everyone talking about Paddy Power....£££££££££££!!!

Looking forward to seeing the new kit tomorrow, let’s hope there is a goalkeeper also announced.

I wonder what percentage of kits in the English top two leagues are sponsored by betting companies, it seems only the real big boys are attracting other companies.

Hope it stops soon personally

9 out of 20 PL.

17 out of 24 Championship.

Why do you want it to stop?

[rog of the rovers]

From what I've seen with other Umbro shirts, and the styles of recent seasons, I'm predicting a monochrome badge on the away shirt.

Obviously from what's been reported in grey and yellow.

You would have thought that they would show a pic of it before it goes on sale at least

In blues for 1875 members isn't it?

[pick32]

I know they are doing the kit launch don’t know if it’s on sale or if they will be at the shop, maybe just the promotional stuff 

[RoversClitheroe]

On sale Saturday

[JHRover]

It's set to be worn at Rangers on Sunday so you would expect they would need to have it out before then.

Today is D-Day for Madon.

Today is D-Day for Madon.

The day of the 19th of July  to be official known forever more as Grey Friday in his honour 

"I see a kit on the horizon, Madon has hinted at halved grey

and if it doesn't contain orange, I'll be a happier person today "

 

On a separate note I see Umbro have inflicted their love of  Man city blue out on Burnley this year with their away shirt, C'mon Umbro its been 6 seasons get over it they are probably never coming back

For those on Twitter there is a thread on Nick Harris (@sportingintel) timeline which is alarming to put it mildly
