I made this thread last summer and it was very successful, this is where you share images and news about the new sponsorships and kits in footy this summer.

Nah they get the shirts too I think

Isit true that some teams are ditching their traditional stripes for next season? I'm also hearing that some of it may be because of Nike...

for example:

Athletico Madrid Home 2006/2007

^^ :rofl: the Juve shirt looks like an inmates uniform :rofl:

Lol I know!

The new Juve kit reminds me of the Dutch anti-racism kit.

New Wolves Away - Le Coq Sportiff (Chaucer) - Home kit also to be released later this year, current investigation is underway after a replica shirt was sold on E-Bay claiming to be the new kit lol

http://shop.wolves.co.uk/sites/WOLVES/images/Products/GPS-150_B.jpg
http://shop.wolves.co.uk/sites/WOLVES/images/Products/GPS-85J_B.jpg

SE9 I have heard the same thing, even Barcelona may have two stripes!

Wolves looks good but I always fancied their shirt with Doritos on it

Even Barca! :runaway: Whats going on here! This is going to upset quite a few people.

I think the new designers for the Spurs kit got lazy and decided just to get a plain white shirt and stick the spurs logo on it.

Why waste effort on a team that won't make it to the CL again

Da Russians(chelski) also have Adidas as their sponsers for next season, anybody got a concept of their jersey? & is samsung mobile still with them or have they swopped to siemens?

Wolves looks good but I always fancied their shirt with Doritos on it

Lol, you must be the only one ;)

This is one of my favourite Wolves shirts, done by Puma

i'd love it if that was the new liverpool shirt. back to the proper liver bird badge with the eternal hillsborough flame and the five european cups - class.

the only way the badge could be improved is if it said LFC instead of LIVERPOOL FOOTBALL CLUB.

Andy this one is much sexier

Reading Away

the new Chelsea and Liverpool adidas shirts look great!

As much scum as Chelski are I rather liked their Umbro shirts. I hope Umbro does not die out seeing this was their biggest club, the most important thing though is they make the England shirts.

I heard the AIG on Utd's shirts are gonna stand for "Alex Is Gay" :rofl:

The new Liverpool one wont look anything like that above.

That was a mock-up made by a forumer on RedandwhiteKop.com.
He did many others aswell.

I'm pretty sure it'll look like that. That's adidas' new design and pretty much every team will get a jersey like that.

I think it will be a bit more like the Marseille kit.

The Monaco kit is also fan-dabby-tastic.

I like Tottenham's new kit a lot because it isn't so tight that you can't breath!! Infact it isn't tight at all :)

I just hope the new liverpool kit doesnt look like this!
the whole adidas sign in the middle with the crest on the side looks gay!
http://img108.imageshack.us/img108/3923/0608sml0xb3sh.jpg

on the other hand this one does'nt look all that bad
http://img111.imageshack.us/img111/6126/060893pk5gg.jpg

but the real one will look very similar to this

this one looks gay too!

The stripes on the Shirt look black, don't think its just the photo, the ones on the crest still look blue.

For the UTD guys, hopefully Ruud will still be there next season

FC Barcelona have agreed carry the UNICEF logo on their kits next season. This will be the club's first ever shirt sponsor.

There will be a presentation at the United Nations headquarters in New York on the 11th of August when Barça visit the city on their pre-season tour of the USA. The contract with the UN will also be signed on that day.

The club are keen to promote themselves as a humanitarian club. FC Barcelona were the first football club to formally support the UN Millennium Development Goals campaign, with aims ranging from halving extreme poverty to halting the spread of HIV/AIDS and providing universal primary education by 2015.

That agreement will see the club donate 0.7 per cent of their annual income (€2million) to the fund from the start of the 2006-07 season.

The only thing that twat of a manc is gonna kiss is Stevies Arse while begging him to stop knocking the goals in & avoiding his team embrassment :scouserd:

I think this is one of the worst times in recent years for kit design. The Valencia kits look the smartest from what I've seen so far.

I like the plain Spurs kit too.

Kampy haveyou got a pic of the Dortmund away shirt?

The Liverpool ones look SHIT.

I wish they'd go back to something a bit more retro. Why cant they have the old style badge? Just a Liver Bird inside a shield. This disgusting thing they have now seems to be a badge trapped within two other badges.

Not a Fulham fan.(Citeh actually)

But what a fantastic looking home kit/top.

I boutght the away shirt last week when i was in Barcelona it´s very cool :)

Reminds me of the away kit they had during the 1995/96 season.
they also had the same colours in the 93/94 season, I remember they wore that away jersey against ManU in the FA Cup final when Eric Cuntona scored the winner.

Heres a cheeky Norwich Youngster modeling the new Kids Size Norwich Kit for the 06/07 season.

Did Man United get their kits from Asda this year?

The lot of them are shite, Tottenham are on the right track once they get rid of the advert on the front.

BRING BACK PROPER TOGGER KITS

http://pictures.footymad.net/upload/342/288420-1.jpg

I'm very much certain this is Liverpools new home kit....from LFC online.

The best kits so far are the classic designs without all the fussy additions,ie Tottenham home, Roma home and away,Man U home, Barcelona home, Inter home, Rangers home,Watford home,Juve.
The Liverpool and AC Milan home kits are not bad but the added patterns that adidas are using this season are fussy and uneccessary and Arsenals new kit would be good but for the horrible fly Emirates logo.

Nice to see that a lot of people are liking the Tottenham kit. Hope that everyone of Tottenham's 1.2m supporters in the UK and how many around world buy it :)

Liverpool's kit isn't traditional now is it? Its just fancy stuff though its not that over the top. Man U's and Arsenal's is very tradional. Tottenham's isn't white all over its got a thick navy-blue line above the lettering. The most tradional kit Spurs have had whilst I've been a fan has to be the 2004/05 kit. I like Romas and Barca's very nice.

^^Yep, but with the LFC home kit, I like the way the lines on the shirt line up with the collar, looks calssy. The badge is too big tho' & the away kit looks confused.
AC Milans kit design is nice, I thoght they whould follow that similar design, or even germanys & frances WC kit. I hope they dont have that stupid font for the numbers, u know that crappy 3 stripes thing

It's because the shirts is all screwed up in that pic, well...not lying flat and perfect anyway....that I knew it was the shirt.

As that's how the 2004/2006 kit pics looked.


Wish it didn't have the collar.

What's wrong with the new Liverpool kit?

I like it, think it's really nice.

The away shirt is ok. I'm not a huge fan of yellow kits, but i think it looks alright.

As I said in some other thread,
"the last few times Liverpool had a yellow away kit was:
2001- We won the FA Cup, Carling Cup, UEFA Cup,
2005 - We won the Champions League"

Who knows what we can expect this season ;)

Adidas have fucked up with that Liverpool kit. It's lop-sided. why have the club crest on one breast, and the sponsor and manufacturer centred? the Adidas logo should either be on the other breast, or all three should be centred.

What is it with lop-sidedness this season? The Everton home shirt is the same, with the retro 70's Umbro diamond pattern on one shoulder only. Why, for fucks sake? Why? :?

As for Utd. I prefer last seasons shirt. New one looks like a cheap knockoff sold for £3 in Bangkok.

Agree with you Bunnyman, I also wanted the adidas logo on the other breast, but what the hell it doesnt look thaaat bad. But Liverpools adidas home kit, is the ONLY kit that adidas have made that has a collar!(no other club that is sponserd by adidas has a collar) & I must add, it looks might fine!

Where's that shithole in todays banner? :?

Bunnyman's right. Switching back to Adidas means Liverpool are stuck with those annoying stripes and collars again. Last season's home shirt was just fine. I'm also disappointed that Liverpool have become obsessed with having as many different kits as possible for different competitions. What's wrong with just home and away?

Pevsner likened Liverpool to Durban didn't he? Both British imperial ports and trading cities, with grand Victorian commercial architecture.

And maybe it's just my natural dislike of brand logos, but those Kappa things are terrible. And the wrong way around.

I really want a FC Copenhagen shirt but there is no way to get one here, infact I have never seen them sold anywhere.

Who's Pevsner :? yes, Durban is similar to Liverpool in a few ways, it it the main port & what not, we do have a fair bit of victorian architecture,
you can have a look @ our gallery Durban Gallery (http://skyscrapercity.com/showthread.php?t=232314)

Now that I got the new Liverpool kit, it aint all that bad, its quite comfortable, that Clima cool crap really worx!

Durban is similar to Durban? Who'd've guessed? :D

Durbs, Pevsner was a German Jewish architectural historian who wrote a series of architectural guides covering all of Great Britain and much of Ireland over a twenty-year period in the middle of the C20th, called "Buildings of Britain". In recent years the books' publisher has begun to publish new and updated additions of the guides.

Thanks for the link. I'll take a look.

Villa secure new kit deal with Nike

Aston Villa have secured a long-term deal with Nike who will become the club's official sportswear partner from the 2007-2008 campaign.

The deal will see Nike supply Villa's playing and replica kit in addition to a full range of branded sportswear and accessories.

Villa's new chief executive Richard FitzGerald told: 'This is a significant step forward for the club off the field and we're delighted to have Nike partnering with us.

'The association will help us to drive the club forward. The brand sits perfectly with the new board's vision for Aston Villa and we're looking forward to working with Nike in the future.'

Jim Allaker, vice-president and general manager of Nike UK, said: 'Aston Villa is a major club with a fantastic history and a massive fanbase.

'We're delighted they will be joining the Nike family, which already includes national teams such as Brazil and the Netherlands and clubs such as Manchester United, Arsenal, Celtic and FC Barcelona.

'We're very excited to be part of the club's future and we anticipate a long and successful partnership.'

Villa currently have Hummel?

correct

Well, I wish Spurs had nike. As much as I like the new kit Puma are fucking useless. On countless occasions people have complaind about the badge, on the UEFA Cup away strip, coming off after just one wash! Also they've ran out of stock on our shirts and can't make anymore! I went into JJB yesterday, JJB were more than happy to have Tottenham shirts around when I last went in infact thats what was the thing you saw when you walked in, and the sercruity guard told me they'd sold out and then I rememberd reading about this mistakes and all the other shit.

Kappas kits were not designed for beer bellys but at least they managed to sell 250,000 shirts a year in th UK alone and make no fuck ups.

Why did they redesign the Spurs badge? This years looks shit

Why did they redesign the Spurs badge? This years looks shit

because they are a massive club. :banana:

You damn right r-kid.

It's not shit, it's a lot better than the one before. Two red lions, wtf has that got to do with Spurs? Anyway I like it because it's traditional. I always wanted the club to change the badge back to the origanal. Next year it'll be Tottenham Hotspur's 125th anniversary.

125 years of....?

why have man u begun wearing white socks all the time? it looks shit the black was much better

And on that note, Man Utd should have black kits

Sorry, miss read that, thought u had "Man Utd should have black *tits*"

For some reason, Man U's kits to me always looks crap

I thought it said that after I posted it

I really like the new England kit and therefore I'm buying one tomorrow. Unfortunately it's about $120 Canadian here which is a damn sight more than what I payed for the last home shirt that I bought on Oxford Street for about a tenner.

edit....shit I just got a close look at it from the previous page. Those diamond umbro things are crap.

If it happens, it's another scandalous money maker. There home kit is mainly red with some white. Their away kit is going to be mainly white with some red. Not exactly a change of strip, which the away shirt should be.

You wait, during the Summer, Arsenal will announce a new third strip because the first two clash with too many other clubs. I've seen it at Man Utd so often over the years, and it's a fucking rip-off! :ohno:

Is this even an official proposal? Kind of doubt it.

I think United are having another new home kit for next season so that will be another £40 quid. Infact I'll probs go soccer world and get it for about £25.

Is that right Andy? the money grabbing bastards. They only brought out a new home kit this season with their new sponsors AIG.

What's this soccer world too? I'm back in England in May and want to know the cheapest place to get a United shirt for both my son and me? Here in New Zealand it costs about NZ$150 each! (about 60 quid in laymans terms). And people in the UK think they are getting ripped off! :ohno:

Go Bangkok, MBK center, theres a cart outside the main chain store in that building, on the ground floor, you can get a new Utd jersey, with any of your star's names on it, with the English Premier league badges, also with the nike tags on the shirt, it looks so geniune , not 1 detailed missed, then again it might be genuine,

yeh they sell for 10 pounds. I bought 2 liverpool ones (Gerrard & Kuyt) & my cuz got himself an Henry Arsenal 1.

Ye the kit now is for the 50th Year of a number of things so next season it changes again.

Soccer world is in most large shopping centres. There's one in the Trafford Centre, Centre of Stockport, Alti Retail Park, I think there's one in the Arndale, one in Liverpool City Centre and there are others about. Its the cheapest place to buy the shirt. I've never paid more than £25 in there for a fooball shirt. I got the England Shirt from there before the world cup was on, for about £12.

Isn't Soccer World now rebranded as Sports World?

It is, and you can find it online here (http://www.sports-world.com/), save you squeezing past the European Donnay tennis shirt mountain.

Isn't Soccer World now rebranded as Sports World?

It has many names.
It's Sport Direct here in Kirkcaldy, Sport Soccer in Dundee and, I think, Soccer World in Edinburgh!!

Ye the kit now is for the 50th Year of a number of things so next season it changes again.

So are there any pictures of this new kit yet?

Who cares, its prob shite

So are there any pictures of this new kit yet?

We won't see it until its nearly out!

It will be red and white, it may have a black armband, it may have
February 6th 1958 printed on it somewhere.

It will have a nike swoosh on it.

What The Nike Deal REALLY Means For Villa Posted by: JohnCresswell
News: LionAston Villa today announced a "long term" partnership with American sportswear giant Nike. The fans have long clamoured for an association with one of the major players in technical sponsorship, and now their wish has finally come true. But aside from having a new brand mark on the shirt, what else could the Nike deal mean to Aston Villa and it's long suffering supporters?


The timing of this deal says a lot more for the current status of the club than may be obvious at first glance. Since the arrival of Randy Lerner and his band of merry men, things have been looking up in B6 – new signings, a new training ground and the renovation of the Holte Hotel being the three most obvious signs that the times they are a-changing.

The times are a-changing at Nike too, though, and gone are the days where adding to the sports marketing portfolio was as simple as making a phone call to the commercial director at Leeds United or Sunderland. That was all about exposure and getting as much coverage as possible in the UK market (and also overseas). These days a much more tactical approach is taken, with several clubs shed from the honour roll in recent seasons and several more expected to follow in the future. A concentrated effort around big names like Arsenal, Manchester United, Celtic, PSG, Porto, Brazil, and the recently re-signed Barcelona means that Nike football is now much less about quantity and much more about quality.

Talk on the messageboard has speculated that one of the club’s non-executive directors, Bob Kain, may have called this deal in as a favour. Well if he has it would be one hell of a favour given the amount of time and effort that goes into servicing a football club at any level of the professional game. Whilst the favour theory cannot be ruled out, it seems far more likely that Nike have also been sold the romantic vibes currently reverberating around the once dark corridors of football’s stately home.

After a disappointing 2006 where adidas and Puma battled out the World Cup final and Nike’s shirts didn’t generate the same amount of buzz as in 2002 and 2004, the American sporting behemoth are currently re-focussing in order to make up some lost ground on their three-striped rivals. As such, the signing of Aston Villa suggests that there is indeed a big plan in place at Villa Park and that all the hype surrounding the club may well be fully justified.

But what can the fans expect from the new collaboration? Well the fact that the details of the deal haven’t been released may imply that the actual base deal isn’t huge and the terms of the contract are much more geared around success through league placings, appearances on Sky, merchandise sales and, crucially, trophies. The same can be said of the duration of the contract – extension options potentially being in place on the premise that on and off pitch success is forthcoming. So in the short term it would be a shock if this summer saw a Nike financed assault on the transfer market. In the mid to long term we may see a Lerner financed building plan with the intention that costs are offset by victories, and ultimately a self sufficient business model in the style of Arsenal and Manchester United would be created.

Speculate to accumulate they call it, and it’s something which hasn’t been seen at Villa Park beyond the occasional glance across the A38 to watch a smaller version of the idea being carried out.

Alongside this, fans shouldn’t expect to see a clutch of Nike sponsored athletes arriving at Villa Park. Talk of players signing for teams based on who their kit supplier is has never been proven beyond speculation, and that speculation has generally centred around two to three players at most. So whilst Ronaldinho probably wont be strutting his golden “Swooshed” Tiempos in front of the Holte End next season it is likely that a number of the club’s less well known players and certainly the backroom staff will make the switch to Nike product. The supplier will obviously benefit from giving free products to the up and coming players such as Osbourne and Gardner who may not already have boot deals of their own.

One thing the fans CAN expect to see is more people strolling around proudly displaying the lion rampant on their chest. History shows that in the first season with a new supplier, particularly a large one, sales can double or triple but may peter out over time. It would be fair to expect Villa to be in the 50-80k league with the likes of Everton, but there is no reason why the exposure and extended distribution offered by Nike can’t see that number dramatically increase – particularly if coupled with performance on the pitch. Obviously this will lead to an enhanced reputation for the club and will generate further success and sales. It’s a simple equation.

So how big has the fan impact been on this deal? One thing that is certain is that this partnership hasn’t come about as a result of the fans “asking” for it. No amount of fan pressure on the club would lead to a top sports industry executive casually signing a multi-million dollar cheque. Unless it was to pay for a new South American striker in order to silence the critics…

Of course the Swoosh can be seen on the likes of Walsall and Rotherham, so why haven’t Villa associated themselves with a mega-brand before? It’s simply down to money. Hummel, Reebok, Umbro, or whoever, were laying down the best offer at the time. Walsall et al will either be paying a nominal sum for their kit or will be getting it free in order to enable Nike to penetrate micro markets and gain “local hero” status. A deal with the likes of Villa is much more complex in terms of design approval, distribution, supply and, naturally, that golden bottom line.

The kit itself is a contentious issue amongst supporters. Nike have a recent history of performance innovation – the ill-fated “Cool Motion” shirt at the 2002 World Cup and the more successful “Total 90” follow up in 2004. The 2006 offering didn’t call out much in the way of industry leading technicality but it would be fair to expect to see that rectified in time for 2008. Despite the commendable efforts of some of the members of VillaTalk, it would be a fair assumption that the 2007/8 kit design is already finalised (or very close to being) and equally that the designs for 2008/9 will be presented to the Villa board with the next 8-12 weeks. Give the length of time that goes into designing, testing, approving and producing a football shirt, this is the reality of the situation. Hummel made a bold statement around involving fans in the kit design. It’d be a big surprise to see Nike doing the same. That said, it’s not impossible.

The shirt itself will unlikely be a unique silhouette, but it would also be a big surprise if it were just a coloured up or graphicised version of what either Manchester United, Arsenal or Celtic will be wearing. The nature of the collaborations with those clubs is probably such that they wont allow another local (i.e. British) club to have the same shirt. The rules don’t apply to teams elsewhere, though, so we may see the same cutting lines as, say, Inter Milan but with the obvious adjustments made. Of course this depends on Nike’s sports marketing/design strategy going forward.

With 2007 being such an important year for Aston Villa - the 25th anniversary of the date they on the European Cup, no less – it would be the fans’ dream to see a modern interpretation of the kit worn on that glorious night. It would be fair to expect that dream to be fulfilled by the Nike designers. Not simply because it would gain instant kudos with the fans, but because 26th May 1982 holds a special place in the hearts of Nike, too.

As Bayern Munich stepped out onto the field dressed head to toe in adidas, the feet of Aston Villa’s players gave a worldwide début to Nike’s first attempt at “soccer” boots. We all know the result that night – Villa, and Nike footwear, crowned Champions of Europe at the first attempt. Quite a tale, and more than a hint of romance about it too.

But, just as Villa, Nike football disappeared into the wilderness almost immediately after that victory. Whilst Nike’s resurrection came a lot sooner than that of Aston Villa, only the most cynical supporter would deny themselves the opportunity to draw comparisons tonight and dream of their beloved club mirroring Nike’s return to glory.

It would be a golden moment in more ways than one - for the fans, for the players and, of course, for that all important bank balance.

^^ That would be a good strip for the English national team

Are you England? Are you England? Are you England in disguise? Are you England in disguise?

Not a very good disguise though.

When are Villa gonna unveil their new crest?

Are you England? Are you England? Are you England in disguise? Are you England in disguise?

Inter? England in disguise? 81 points? Lost once all season? Play with passion and pride? They're fooling nobody.

Tottenham will show their new kit off on 12th May.

The last day of the season, eh? Is this Official (is it anywhere on the Official site)?

I can't find anything on the web about this date.

It's what I have read from many message boards then again knowng Tottenham message boards it's most probably wrong.

2 kits a season? Peoples club? Fuck off Kenwright. Unless they're £10 a shirt then they're hardly a 'peoples club'. Li Tie sold more shirts off his name than EFC have. Dickheaded flouncy nipplepotamus.

I'm still amazed Man Utd are bringing out new home and away kits only ELEVEN months after the latest change. It really is becoming a joke.

You know what the next trend will be? two kit changes a season. A pre and post Christmas strip!

It really is one big rip-off for the fans.

Just get a Bangkok connection like I did, getting all my new kits in the mail with player names on the back all for 8 pounds :D

^^ il PM u the shirts and players i want next season :D

^^lol, sure, lets hope that dickhead keeps his promise!

i'll be picking up my new ipswich shirt next week - my first for years!

no name embossed on the back though, currently we have no players with whom i wish to be associated.

a shirt to strike fear into
the hearts of men.

Supposedly this is Tottenhams new kit.

If that is Spurs new kit, I like it. Give me a single colour shirt anyday.

Looks like the material is of much better quality than last year's effort. Might get this one.

It seems like Adidas are doing everything they can to make their shirts uglier every year.

I like that new Tottenham UEFA Cup shirt, simple and pretty.

what's your verdict?

...

Like it.

Hope they use white shorts & socks with it too.*

Also would like if they 'reverse' the look for an away red kit with white logos.**

But when did they decide to release a new home kit EVERY year? What about the Peter Saville designed ones?

*Edit - they've done that!

Has to be fake. It's fucking awful.

I like the new United kit, its different than the usual red we've had for years now. I do hope its only for one or two seasons though, we cant be fucking about with the base colours of our club.

That United jersey is fucking horrible.

It's chavtastic!

Re: United's new kit.

It'll certainly be a challenge creating a vinyl for that shirt in Forza.
