Nufc ... Sponsored By Custard Creams

[Sunderland]

Shocking!!!!!

What is your immediate thought on what their marketing department has described as a 'stylish' new kit?

Custard creams?

One beer too many after a night of curry and kebabs?

A banana split?

Blackpool rock gone wrong?

Or just 'egg all over their face'?

[mrbojangles]

Mainly this to be honest.

Its different, think its the 3rd kit theyre allowed to be bizarre.

does it matter what kit they have as their away strip though? isn't every newcastle fan duty-bound to buy the black and white home kit or they can't consider themselves a member of the toon army?

I hear they will only wear the yellow kit on Monday Night games.

If this thread is for real, then how can a bank thats been bailed out still be allowed to splurge on sponsorship ?

Think the kit is perfect, Yellow stripes, pretty much sums up their performances last year.

I saw something similar in Tesco last week, it was on a price tag for a mark downed durian at 50% off because it was no longer top level.

Because they paid all the money up front for the sponsorship deal 4 years ago so Souness could blow it on Owen, Boumsong and Albert Luque, i think it ends in 1 year.

it just gets better, its like the current owners are trying their best to make a laughing stock out of them. Being a sunderland fan, i've waited years for this to happen 1st relegation, now this , what next!

[mrbojangles]

According to sky news. Only 3 people queued up for this shirt when it was released. Normally thousands queue. Somebody has got to get their "Nicky" Butt kicked for this, surely

Fortunately we dont usually have to wait to long for Sunderland to get relegated!

But no matter how bad things get for Newcastle, they'll always be a superior club and city compared to Sunderland.

Aye, very superior at the moment. Your almost empty glass must definitely look half full. That's a very optimistic viewpoint at present. A few too many san miguel light, chai mai???

And to make matters worse, 1 of those was the mam of the kid buying a shirt. The other shirt (yes, all 2 of them that were sold at 20% off) said he would probably have to wear a jumper over the top of it to avoid embarrassment.
