New Kit

[IanMcL]

Kit looks fine. Concerned at the sponsor. £10m in the prem....how much can a shirt dealer provide???

[Claret Alfie]

I’m not keen. The sleeves look daft and should match the front of the shirt.

[Goalposts]

Really don’t like it, love the shorts and socks the top is awful, lets see in flesh. A white one with claret and blue flecks may be interesting as an away design

[wilks_bfc]

Will the players’ names on the back have the squiggly bit on them as if they have been embroidered by hand? Seems to have been done on all EFL shirts for a while now. Some sponsorship deal I believe.

New EFL font for new charity (without the squiggly line)

[wilks_bfc]

For those that want an name & number on the back, this is the new font

[burnmark]

No mention of price yet. We have been one of the country’s cheapest in price over the years. Was the last priced at £45 for an adult? Not many sell them at that price these days. Interested to see if there’s an extra fiver stuck on to make the magic fifty.

The home kit is just awful in my opinion, looks like those shell suit designs that were popular with the low life back in the day.

I gather you won't be purchasing then Jos

Ha ha, I’d refuse a free one.

Think it looks better than what the leaked pics showed.

The pattern at the top reminds me a little of the yellow shirt we had in 1991-92

[Belial]

Not the biggest fan of that home top. It would would have looked better with the white collar and beading for a start if they were going for throwback

Looks like he’s got some sort of weird alien appendages sticking out of his sleeves.

[timshorts]

the third kit is black with a pink roadmap of Burnley on the top like the one city concept kit. Away kit sounds normal ish but the third kit sounds very different and very very cool.

It would be improved if the diagram showed a big inland lake where that Blackburn place is at the moment.

That keeper kit would’ve been great if they’d carried the pattern through. Not sure why they stopped it!

Have reserved judgement until seeing it properly. I’d say I preferred the leaked pictures actually but agree about the collar, beading and also think patterned arms like the original would’ve been better.

Don’t really like it with the white shorts. Think the images shown with blue shorts/claret socks look better with this kit.

Didn’t realise Jon Parkin was still playing. Glad they’ve sorted his shirts out though for next season.

[Falcon]

I really, really quite like it now I've seen the professional pics

[GodIsADeeJay81]

Good to see they've moved away from a gambling sponsor when they've had the first real chance

Yes this is fantastic to see

Well done to the club

[GodIsADeeJay81]

Any idea of the value of the new sponsor?

Couldn't tell you, but there is a growing desire among football fans to move away from the over reliance on gambling firms for sponsorships.

This is a positive step by the club

[Rileybobs]

I’ve just maxed out all of my credit cards on classic football shirts, so swings and roundabouts.

I wonder how moving away from alcohol sponsorship has done for curbing drinking, especially in the youth?

To be fair the youth of today do drink far less. How much of that is down to a reduction in marketing I’m not sure.

20% and rising of the population don't drink at all, especially among younger people.
Shockingly just 4% of drinkers account for 30% of alcohol consumed.

Desire amongst some football fans would be more accurate. Gambling is a legitimate leisure activity. Hopefully there's no fast food, beer, stocks and shares sponsors for starters if we're going for this moral crusade. And a look at the behaviour of participants in the ground and on the pitch to check for their moral compass as well.

Club likely to have reduced sponsorship income, conservatively, by over 50%. Another player to be sold, and replaced with a cheaper version.

Prevalence of Drinking: According to the 2019 National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH), 85.6 percent of people ages 18 and older reported that they drank alcohol at some point in their lifetime,1 69.5 percent reported that they drank in the past year,2 and 54.9 percent (59.1 percent of men in this age group and 51.0 percent of women in this age group3) reported that they drank in the past month.3

Non drinking % excluding northern Ireland in the UK largeley flat....

So we'll mark you down as in favour of gambling firms sponsoring football then.

Drinking at some point is different to not drinking anymore.
I used to drink regularly, but it's very rare over the last 4-5 yrs for me to drink.
I know various people who don't drink at all.

They're like Vegans then?

Apparently someone thinks Evertons new Away Strip has "Abstract Vaginas" on it

You think our new shirt is **** then get a load of this monstrosity

The away top might still be sponsored by a betting firm, if rumours about the away kit having a different sponsor are true.

But at least our players won't be running around advertising betting at Turf Moor during our SkyBET Championship games

[nyclaret]

Anyone know when the away kit will be released? I presume we’ll be playing in the new home strip on Friday?

Realistically we've got until 22nd October to sort out an away strip when we play Sunderland. Every other team play in white/blue except Watford, yellow. However, don't we need to submit our colours before the season starts?

[Robbo1882]

The new home sponsorship is working for me, I’m now slightly addicted to the Classic Shirt website adding all manner of stuff to the basket

[wilks_bfc]

Supply chain issue may be causing a delay

[burnmark]

Club said that we will wear the new home shirt on Friday. I’d guess that maybe the away kit will go on sale on the Luton home game to maximise sales.

Spoke to a guy who worked in CFS - he told me they were also sponsoring the away shirt.

[Top Claret]

Problems at the Port of Shanghai due to covid. New kits should arrive in the club shop sometime in the New Year

[giveusaB]

Last seasons shirts were made in Turkey according to the label.

Great news and a small price to pay for the long terms benefits.

They did it with tobacco firms many years ago so hopefully it has the same long term impact. And if you don’t think gambling addiction kills people you should maybe look at the number of people in rehab and the numbers who commit suicide on the back of their gambling addictions.

The fact that we also have issues with fast food / obesity ; alcohol….and to a much lesser extent your stocks and shares tenuous gambling reference are not a reason to not deal with gambling addiction and betting sponsorship. Neither is the point that not everybody who watches or participates in sport have the best moral compass.

If there are moves to ban or restrict alcohol sponsorship in sport then yes that’s another positive move.

And if overall the amount of sponsorship money in sport is reduced then so what ? It’s all relative and again no bad thing to reduce the amount players get paid etc. And lets not pretend that this is the main reason why Burnley FC are faced with selling players and buying cheaper versions.

Shirt on sale tomorrow. I’ll be popping down to get my kids one each.

Has any info on pricing been released yet?

Cheers Bosscat. £5 increase which I thought would be the case. Will still be one of the cheapest in the league though. Some prices at other clubs are ridiculous.
