That's unlikely to be the driving factor this time around, so I'm not holding my breath. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REDCAR Posted May 31, 2019 Share Posted May 31, 2019 This time last year our kit was announced.... along with Frank. Would be nice for another early launch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always thought the all white used to look good the few times we wore it as well - white shorts plus that west ham away kit derbified would look great.

Loftyhites Posted June 1, 2019 Share Posted June 1, 2019 Usually, by this point, someone has ‘inside info’ about the design but it’s all quiet on that front this time round. I’m just hoping that we don’t get another ‘white shirt got mixed up with the darks’ grey away shirt this year? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s like the 13/14 home shirt - It wasn’t that great but I love it now because of the memories the team created whilst wearing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

unclej Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 Just realised we can't seem to acquire a sponsor without them being immoral. Think I'd prefer Chupa Chups to aspartame laced sugar drinks, nutritionless fast food and gambling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately gambling seems to be the 'in thing' for shirt sponsorship at the minute, just like alcohol was about 10 years ago. We've been particularly cursed with poor sponsors in recent years - Just Eat being a very poor choice, especially on larger shirts, Buy Mobiles just seeming a bit odd, and 32 red being a gambling company (although probably the nicest looking sponsor in a while). Wish we still had Bombardier Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally, I loved the fact that we had 'The Derbyshire Building Society' - it really stood out, you could go anywhere and anyone knew yours was a Derby shirt because of that. Niche, but I liked it tbh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't go around speeding if you don't have tyres, so naturally Avon Tyres will have led to dozens of road accidents every year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
