Noremac Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 Might be one of those things we release for a potential final??? did that not happen the year the huns literally kicked the shit and cheated there way to another victory through an grievous career ending assault on big Jim. Link to comment
Tord31 Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 Only possible if were staying with nike and team? Link to comment
robbo Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 Only possible if were staying with nike and team? woops. but aye, you have to assume that adidas have signed at least a 3 year deal given the effort that went into overhauling the club shop....plus, who would only sign a 1 year deal with a supplier?

STANDfreeSCOTTY Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 Im hoping they do stay with Adidas,, Adidas shits on nike. Plus next year the could release an official Adidas version of the cup winners cup strip. Link to comment
Liam Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 its definitely a adidas kit, we signed a "long term" deal with them. Also been hearing word from inside the club that we were pushing for a sort of commemorative kit to mark 30 years since the cup winners cup. Wasnt told if we were successful or not though.

I have heard that Adidas would make any past design if enough of them were ordered. I think it may be 1000 units? I don't know if this is still the case or if the numbers are right, but they should do it! Link to comment
rossafc92 Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 The deal signed with Adidas lasts 5 years. If Jason Brown was doing the photo shoot for the kit today, then I'd imagine Team Recruitment have signed an extension as shirt sponsors? Link to comment

No no no no! - leave Gothenburg alone for a whileWe're as bad as the beggars wheeling out the Lisbon Lions given any excuse.The next celebration should be the 50th anniversary. Link to comment

I'd buy one, been trying to get my hands on one for years. Got every replica old school kit. Doesn't mean I'm celebrating the 1970 Scottish Cup win or the 1976 Scottish League Cup win, just means I like old school fitba tops. Link to comment
goteborg83 Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 I remember gettin my brand new home kit home in time for the cup final in 2000 only for the tie to be effectively over after 3 minutes. Cheating hun scum! Link to comment
StevieT1986 Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 Was in the club shop a couple of weeks ago with my mate and we were discussing how pissed off as a parent you'd be at the green goalie top and the fact that its never been worn Link to comment
J4MRU Posted April 10, 2012 Share Posted April 10, 2012 Gavin Rae just confirmed on Twitter that he has seen it today..... It's smart..... And it's Adidas. He is buying black and red Adidas boots (well he reckons mr Adidas will be a couple of pairs lighter) to go with it...... Hopefully see this on Cup Final day!! Link to comment
dj_bollocks Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 Given the 20th Anniversary strip was a crock of shit I'd like a tip top quality home and away top (ECWC & Super Cup top) Link to comment
RUL Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 This just makes me more nervous about Saturday as I fully expect club would have it out for final if we make it Link to comment
Karl Fletcher Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 Gothenburg should just be confined to the history books and be left alone completely now. No needs for 30th, 35th, 40th etc celebrations. We've celebrated it to death. IMO. Link to comment

We've celebrated it to death. IMO.Agreed to a certain extent, but there have been people that I know living in Aberdeen & Shire, well into their fitba, that didn't know what happened in '83. I don't think that it's lorded as much as people say. In fact, I've heard it more from opposition fans than I have from AFC fans. Just to nail my colours to the mast... If there's money to be made from it for the club then I think it's a great idea. Link to comment

We can still talk about it.Still sell the Gothenburg strips and DVDsStill tell the young ones about itAnd now and then we can still remind other fans we are still the only Scottish Club to win two European trophies But as for special matches, dinners, other organised events etc I wouldn't see the point tbh.

I'll agree with you that I don't like the special matches, not one for glamor friendlies although, again, lot o' dough to be made there. Link to comment

We've celebrated it to death. IMO. agreeed. dare i suggest to remove the 2nd star also. i find it a little crringeworthy. however, nothing worng with retro style strips though. many clubs have done that in the past. man u had two in a row in the 90s commemorating newton heath and their euro cup win. didnt everton have one recently styled on their 80s success? two recent example of clubs living in the past there. besides, many fans would welcome it. annual celebrations of 1983 less so i woudl say than a new cool strip.

oilcat Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 Considering the sale stuff in the club shop for the past few weeks has been practically everything with the Team Recruitment logo on it, I would expect a change of sponsor next season Link to comment
Liam Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 Considering the sale stuff in the club shop for the past few weeks has been practically everything with the Team Recruitment logo on it, I would expect a change of sponsor next season :confused: but by the same token everything on sale has the adidas logo on it? Think we will just need to wait and see about a new sponsor or not Link to comment
oilcat Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 :confused: but by the same token everything on sale has the adidas logo on it? Think we will just need to wait and see about a new sponsor or notAye but it was only the Team Recruitment stuff (shirts/jackets/training) that was on sale The Black rain jacket (no TR on the back) was not reduced yet the "Stadium" jacket as they call it with the TR logo on the back was reduced, so deffo new shirt sponsors and probably a new kit which will still be Adidas Link to comment

The Boofon Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 and the other tournament doesn't even existRidiculous statement. It exists. It just isn't played for anymore. Link to comment
sheepiekev Posted April 11, 2012 Share Posted April 11, 2012 Ridiculous statement. It exists. It just isn't played for anymore. You fail to see the contradiction in that sentence boofon? The tournament was disbanded years ago, ergo it no longer exists. Link to comment
