Oldgregg86 Posted July 8, 2023 Posted July 8, 2023 I love that. Might buy that instead of the home shirt Quote

Thought exactly the same..all yellow is alt keeper kit as well 😆 https://twitter.com/brfcsdotcom/status/1677773437899612160?s=61&t=YzghmFC1hBTxrcVJBu1kGQ Quote
Upside Down Posted July 9, 2023 Posted July 9, 2023 Don't like the home shirt. The halves not being reversed is really shit. Its yet another simple easy thing that this club fails to get right. 3 Quote
BankEnd Rover Posted July 10, 2023 Posted July 10, 2023 I must admit, the home shirt is growing on me, because at first I really didn’t like it…. 1 Quote
Mattyblue Posted July 10, 2023 Posted July 10, 2023 You can’t see the odd ‘Cambridge blue’ bit of collar when they are on the pitch, so all good. Quote
alex l Posted July 10, 2023 Author Posted July 10, 2023 For those who thought/think our shirts went on sale too late, Chelsea won't have any for sale until mid August. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/66152580 Quote

alex l Posted July 13, 2023 Author Posted July 13, 2023 Don't disagree with them but they could easily put legislation in place to stop it. And we can go over the same arguments about advertising for gambling, alcohol etc etc 5 Quote

Bad press is never good. It really has spoken for the character of the man. A soulless money grabber who doesn’t give a damn about the reputation of the club at all I find it a crying shame. I think the Macron kits have been the best we’ve had in a while and they have been ruined with that shite logo 4 Quote
arbitro Posted July 13, 2023 Posted July 13, 2023 Accrington are once against giving every Year 3 kid in Hyndburn a new Stanley shirt. It is the seventh year of doing this and they expect to give around 8400 away. https://www.accringtonstanley.co.uk/news/2023/july/community-stanleys-big-shirt-giveaway-to-return-for-seventh-year/ 2 Quote
Mattyblue Posted July 13, 2023 Posted July 13, 2023 Hyndburn has been a Rovers stronghold since time immemorial, but with Stanley now a perennial league outfit (plus being a far more proactive club than this one) and the Dingles spending a lot of time in the Premier League, I’d be interested in the views of residents to how our support is holding up there? 1 Quote

I'm so glad they've been called out for it. Waggott clearly has no moral compass. It's so obviously inappropriate for any sports club to be seen endorsing a nicotine based product. 2 Quote

It will be forgotten about next summer when the club changes its front of shirt sponsor. Funny... We've had this sponsor for our training-wear for several years, and front of shirt sponsor this year. Why are these MPs only just getting around to criticising it? I feel like it's yet another bunch of MPs wanting to be seen to be moral. Quote

I feel like it's yet another bunch of MPs wanting to be seen to be moral. As alex I said, if they wanted to do something about it they would. With all the hand wringing about nicotine, you'd think they'd just ban it. But once again we see no action taken. Strange how it didn't take them long to ban MDMA and other such substances. 1 Quote
Mattyblue Posted July 13, 2023 Posted July 13, 2023 Why more of a fuss now? I’d say largely because of all the stories emerging from schools re those ‘elf bars’ and the like over the past few months. Quote

Mattyblue Posted July 13, 2023 Posted July 13, 2023 Garishly colourful vapes quite obviously aimed at kids through ‘influencers’ on TikTok and the like - ergo now absolutely rife in schools. Quote

Upside Down Posted July 14, 2023 Posted July 14, 2023 They won't do anything at all. It would hurt the wallets of their friends in the tobacco industry. Quote
