if they did a short run of 5000 king power shirts with those badges, 1000 in each size or something, they would literally go in no time. the queues on the webstore after the final didnt die down for days.

They could have just done what they dod with the new kits... preorder to a specific size only.  Job done.

 

Now, Mrs Whelan.   Give me a 35k job, and it may make moving from Weymouth to Leicester worth my while.

 

I can make you manney!

If you want a maroon top simply as a momento there are still some in the club shop in kids sizes.

They're saving it for the Retro collection in 20 years time!

regarding the post up there with removing a sponsor, theres a spray you can use *really really toxic mind, must use outdoors and facemask, gloves etc* that melts vinyl off, you'd be able to use that to get the thailand smiles off and replace it with king power. - its made my xpress who do a lot of transfer material.

WARNING IF YOU GO FOR THIS ITS REALLY TOXIC! but i used to use it at my old job for when tops needed shirt numbers changing etc (i worked at a teamwear specialist)

Would you recommend I go straight to this spray for £15 from the Xpres website or try and do it myself first with Acetone? If its not gonna hurt to try and do it the cheap way first I will or if you think that could mess it up I won't.

Some have popped up on JD again. Not the best size selection, but it's worth checking regularly as they occasionally come up in different sizes.

I read acetone works well too if used on the inside. Last time I tried to get vinyl off I used my iron carefully but this sounds safer.

 

I just ordered one maroon off dhgate.

Absolutely brilliant thank you! May have had to get an XXL but I don’t mind it being baggy! Haha

 I think acetone might work the same way tbf but i've never really used it on shirts, it is good for removing glues etc. however

Found a vinyl remover spray by Dorotape for £10.80 delivered. Cheapest I could find...makes the whole project £35 now but if it works and its a success Itll be worth every penny

Did you get one with the FA Cup badges on it already and a name number? 

 

The FA Cup badge looks good that DHgate do but its slightly to big and in the wrong place. Also they are using the letters for the blue home shirt with blue trim....all of this annoys me. If I'm doing it I want full control even if it does cost more.

 

The spray I ordered is here....free delivery and GET10 gets you 10% off first order making it £10.80 delivered.

This would just irritate me 😆 saying that it looks the right distance from the V 🤔

That might be the lighting. Bought a genuine XXL from JD Sports today but I won't be butchering that until I've at least practiced on the £10 fake 😆

Throw in Leeds 4-1 and Birmingham 2-0 pre-season. If we avoid defeat tonight there’s a strong argument in saying it’s our most successful kit ever.

There are plenty of kit nerds out there who track this sort of stuff: https://kitgeek.wordpress.com/2021/05/24/premier-league-2020-21-end-of-season-kit-report/

 

 

Until that Chelsea game, we were top of the "Away kit" league with 2.5 points per game, but still finished 2nd, so throw in the FA Cup final and it is pretty damn successful.

(and for comparison, the less said about last year's awful pink away kit which got what it deserved with 0.5 ppg and this year's odd white 3rd kit with 0.67 ppg, the better!)

Interesting to see Brighton or Chelsea didnt use their 3rd kit all season, would have thought kit makers would force them to play a match in it at least one to get fans to justify buying it, contractual obligations and all that.

Stage 1 almost complete....for those saying its a different colour you're not wrong!@ 😆

Is the miadidas team label thing around the neck on genuine shirts?

Yes....real shirts are a lot darker and a more silkier material

[brucey]
