Re: Next seasons kit
Good.
This year's was OK for the Championship but if we are serious about our 'brand' then a classic, traditional look is a must for the Premier League.

Re: Next seasons kit
Does anyone have any ‘inside info’ as to whether this seasons home kit will be discounted
Re: Next seasons kit
Couldn't disagree more, the traditional kits are boring and nobody outside of Burnley fans wants one. This season has seen record sales and been available across multiple sites.forzagranata wrote: ↑Sun May 14, 2023 5:55 amGood.

As long as it's claret & blue we need to be more open in the design if we want to reach youngsters around the globe.
It has to stand out, traditional won't stand out.

Re: Next seasons kit
Although now reaching the doddery stage in years and normally being something of a traditionalist I have a lot of sympathy for this view. Anything that avoids the "is that a Villa or West Ham shirt" question will get my nod of approvalbumba wrote: ↑Sun May 14, 2023 7:57 amCouldn't disagree more, the traditional kits are boring and nobody outside of Burnley fans wants one.

Re: Next seasons kit
I’m a traditionalist, the 93/94 shirt this paid homage to, I hated. I only bought that on the morning of the Carlisle away game. But this seasons, loved it from the start. Main reason, they finally got the shade of blue right after years and years of a wishy washy turquoise colour. Combined with white shorts…. Loved it.

Re: Next seasons kit
Sorry just read more into the comments re the blades kit and its not next seasons - It seems to be a "special edition" to celebrate this season.
Maybe should have been silver striping to represent they came runners up in that case

Assume the money we can command for the sponsor in the PL is too much for classic football shirts.
I just hope we don't end up with another gambling sponsorship.

Re: Next seasons kit
If the new kit is inspired by one of our previous kits again could we see Classic Football Shirts remain as the sponsor?
It's certainly not the most lucrative sponsorship deal we've had but I think seeing our current shirt in the Classic Football Shirts shop window on Deansgate and in the London store, as well as it being a football themed sponsor has done wonders for the Burnley brand.
It's been a really refreshing innovative move and probably my favourite kit and sponsor (though it helps seeing us score 3 goals every week whilst playing in it! )

In respect to gambling, I’m not a huge fan but we all want to see summer signings and have to accept they’re the top payers so it would me my expectation.

Re: Next seasons kit
Total sales but the 2009/10 kits were only sold in the club shop in any case. It was a massive sale due to it being the 50th anniversary kits and our first Premier League season.eastcoastclaret wrote: ↑Sun May 14, 2023 10:20 amIs that club shop sales Tony or total sales from all outlets?
Re: Next seasons kit
Argh - a shirt with a collar?
They’re not so bad if they’re more akin to the smaller collar on a polo shirt and quite firm (recent England shirts as an example). Invariably they’re too big and ‘floppy’. More Harry Hill than football shirt!
Our 05/06 and 06/07 shirts fell into the collar is too big category, for me.

Re: Next seasons kit
Comments on here saying the traditional c&b kits are boring ... What a load of nonsense.
The majority of modern kits you see from a variety of clubs with all the flashes, slashes and slodges of weird colours pinks greens silver etc are hideous.
Our traditional kits with simple contemporary additions are the way to go. Our tradition is what we have and what we are.

Your post read as if someone from CFS had walked into the club shop and said to the lass behind the counter ‘can we stick our name in your shirts” and she’d gone “suppose so”.
In any event it’s ridiculous if true that we relied on the club shop manager to get us a deal.

This years kit was a 'nod' (if that is the right word?) to the endsleigh kit. If this year is more traditional - so be it. The club can't please everyone so perhaps mixing it up over the seasons is the way to do it.

Re: Next seasons kit
Personally I’d carry it on. More beneficial to CFS but being shown around the world would grow that business even more globally and doing so they could offer more for sponsorship in future seasons.
Say that to them eg, this much for next season and get yourselves in a position to offer this in 2024, 2025 and so on. If they can’t we can get out of the deal and go elsewhere

To put in to context I think LoveBet were paying £7.5m (although whether that all got paid I’m not sure), but they’ll be expecting many £m’s from a deal this season and doubt they’ll walk away from that as much as they might like to keep the partnership going.

Not sure if he meant ‘by this point in the season’ because it seemed very early to have already sold the most shirts ever, but he definitely positioned it as being a record breaking year in terms of shirt sales.

I’m wondering if they haven’t done them this time as CFS will most probably take the remaining stock to sell themselves.
They have in the past taken/bought our remaining stock of kits and training wear to sell on

Word from club shop is that it's broken records with the amount sold not just for the first day but in general.
If we released 09/10 as our kit next season I bet it wouldn't be as popular.
