How long do shirt sponsorship deals take to find? And how long after the design of the shirt does it take for them to manufactured in the sort of bulk needed for a kit launch?
Seconds but we're in a recession and no one is sure who owns the club or can sign off a deal.
We had a sponsorship deal lined up in December but Conman Southall and Quisling Amis came in, ditched it saying they could get better (by which they meant they could get a back hander) and failed miserably.
They were also going to ditch Hummel for the same reasons but then found out they'd have to buy Hummel out of the deal.
For a kit launch you can mock up three or four shirts with the firm's logo in no time. It's doing the shop versions and players versions that take time.
Huddersfield have launched their new kit without a sponsor as it's not finalised yet. Fans will then have a choice whether to have the sponsor added to their shirts or not
I got the home shirt as a Christmas present and the arrows on the shoulder have already started to peel off. As it’s a while ago I guess nothing can be done about it now, so thought I’d just moan about it on here.
