I know, but we will be using a 2018/19 template whereas the Luton kit is using the 2017/18 season.

I'm amazed at that. It's going to be more difficult tracking it this time with so many clubs having decided to move away from Puma, including the ones we keep an eye on.

That Man City kit sits like De Bruyne is wearing ladies top.

It's very on trend then, a gender neutral shirt!

Burnley has always been a progressive club from the 1960s onwards.
But choosing an invisibility cloak as our next kit is just genius. Opposition defences literally won’t see us coming!!

New Rotherham kit. Could this be the same design for us?

I'd be happy with that Rotherham one in claret and blue..... And HOOPED SOCKS

Firthy · Post by **Firthy** » Sat May 19, 2018 9:59 am

Not a fan of the Rotherham kit. I hope ours is a different design and looks better than that.

wilks_bfc · Post by **wilks_bfc** » Sat May 19, 2018 10:22 am

That Rotherham kit looks a bit “cheap” imo

arise_sir_charge · Post by **arise_sir_charge** » Sat May 19, 2018 10:40 am

The Rotherham kit would look very smart in Claret and Blue. Hooped socks would look fantastic with it.

Europe rules are thst a third kit is needed

Wouldn’t be surprised if we do what we usually do and reuse the previous season away shirt as a third kit

I know CT has hinted at a black away kit this season, so that would work with any of our last 3 away kits with them all being different colours.

Would they Stock them in the club shop again though were we to reach the groups?

Other things:
Betting companies can't be advertised on shirts in UEFA competitions, so that'll be nice. Either a sponsor-less shirt or a different sponsor for EL games.
We'll have names/numbers on the back made by our kit manufacturer rather than the standard PL ones.
We'll have these bad boys on the sleeves.

No sponsor on the shirt will be very nice. Especially if its a retro shirt.

To be honest if we do have a sponsor id much rather have something that relates to or has an affinity with the town.

We have enough money now. We dont need a relative pittance to have some irrelevant company on there that none of us would use.

Either that or something that would give us some credibility and exposure. Rolls Royce is local

bfcwest · Post by **bfcwest** » Sat May 26, 2018 11:37 am

This is great news if we can have a kit without a tacky betting company emblazoned on it, I’ll be able to buy one and wear it without feeling embarrassed.

The Rolls Royce idea would be brilliant CC.

I’m really hoping it’s an airline this year, help us grow the Burnley name globally.

bodge · Post by **bodge** » Sat May 26, 2018 11:43 am

Yorkshire Airlines would be excellent.

Not bothered personally as long as we get the best deal financially.

You don’t care what you wear, and what people associate our club and town with all over the world?

I’m sure the Burnley economic development department would rather see the town associated with a premium, credible name rather than a bookie!!

Not that important to me though i fully understand other people's views.

I'm not sure what the town's economic development board have to do with this. Unless they can offer many millions in sponsorship then they cannot interfere with the dress code of a private business. They can raise lots of cash by introducing car parking charges on Sundays for those weeks when games are being played.

We were told a couple of years ago by the chief exec that we would not market three kits in a season and that, if a third kit was required, we would wear the previous season's away kit. That's happened in the last two seasons.

I have been told that the away kit is black but that there will be a third kit which will be white. That was already planned but being in Europe I can see them now marketing that as a Euro away kit. Also led to believe that there will be a price increase this year from the previous £40.

Doubt that will happen, although Dafabet aren't going to be around, I suspect it will be another betting company.

Price increase is disappointing.

If we need a hird kit I hope they keep this seasons white one. Keeps price for fans down and its a nice kit.

It is a new one and not what i would call entirely White ... otherwise it would replicate the new home shorts and socks

well these days there is what we all understand as White and then there is off-white ... very light grey/silver ... which wouldn't then duplicate white shorts and socks ...

I was at an Executive Briefing for Nutanix on Thursday and I was discussing footy with the Sales Director there... sowed the seed of sponsorship with him.
