It's been that way for as long as I can remember and even everything else going right on and off the pitch doesn't seem to have changed this. Even allowing for the occasions when we have a change in manufacturer or change in sponsor, we are always late. It is a very valid question and I've not heard a valid reason why.

It is a very valid question and I've not heard a valid reason why. The valid reason is those reasons though, we get x amount of pounds to have shorts made by one company and x amount of pounds or having a logo from a sponsor on the front In the last 20 years we've changed kit supplier from diadora, Hummel, Nike, macron, under armour, Luke, kappa and now castore In those years off the top of my head out sponsors have been rover, 32red on two different occasions, dafabet, acorns, QuickBooks, w88, cazoo, and our sponsor is changing again next season It's frustrating I agree but the reason is we don't have continuity between kit maker and kit sponsor so it won't happen until we do 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The faint stripes down the front are decent, the Castore logo is inoffensive. But the shirt blue doesn't match the badge blue. The claret is a bit too dark, and I prefer the darker shades. The sponsor logo is bleh, but not as awful as some are saying. If the Castore and BK8 logos were all gold, the shirt would look nicer. Umbro nails claret. Hate to say it, but West Ham has a better claret than us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted June 4, 2023 Share Posted June 4, 2023 The collar is from the newcastle Saudi kit isn't it so it's something Castore do Its OK, not screaming pay £70 but better than this year's, feels like Castore got the first safe kit out of the door and that one doesn't do enough Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YLN Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 (edited) I didn't realise that was our sponsor for the next three seasons. I also thought there was a ban on betting sponsors, but now I see it's from 26/27 season. It looks like a betting sponsor. A cheap betting sponsor. Thought to be too gaudy for Norwich - honest to god, Norwich. Ah well whatever Edited June 5, 2023 by YLN 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

479Villan Posted June 5, 2023 Share Posted June 5, 2023 Cazoo was fine looking as a sponsor. This one looks like it is advertising how you order a value meal. Such a bad logo, on top of a bad corporate name. Just crap all the way down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hang your head in shame Purslow l Purslow got more money from them than we ever had from a sponsor. It's job done as far as he's concerned. It not looking aesthetically pleasing to fans is irrelevant to him and the club frankly. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
