We've gone for tacky. And that's for the launch, not the shirt. Wolverhampton's Cape Canaveral is pitching for new launches to support the International Space Station. The club badge appears to be mainly in the armpit.

Launching your kit (into Space) is so 2016..

That Wolves shirt is terrible, everything out of proportion of in the wrong place...

We're announcing ours on Monday, with a new shirt sponsor apparently. We're also adding electric advertising boards to Griffin Park this season, going to look ridiculously out of place...

I think the sponsors logo on the Wolves shirt could do with being a bit bigger, I can't quite read what it says.
It must be a kids sized shirt or something. It looks nowhere near as disproportionate on the players.

Bit of clarification on the Wolves shirt, it's a kids sized shirt with an adult sized sponsor... Not sure what the point of doing that was exactly...

Either way it's a shit shirt yet again ruined by a disgusting sponsorship (both asthetically and by their business). I don't know why we make awful shirt designs year after year, why do we have some tango coloured crap instead of traditional gold and black?

Hope the away one looks a little better.

You are correct. Reading's official twitter account pointed out to us that you were the first to do this OTT marketing stunt. Something to tell the grandkids :bg:

Well we're not going to win a trophy anytime soon, so beating Wolves to a kit launch is definitely a memory i'll never forget.

The story about the weird proportions of the Wolves shirt in the launch video is that - and I know you'll all be shocked by this - it was to give prominence to the sponsors. Because each summer, small kids everywhere say to their parents "Mum! Dad! I want to see how the sponsor's logo looks on our ew shirt. Who cares what the shirt looks like, nan, as long as we can see the sponsor's brand and it's juxtaposition to our sporting values and brand principles as promoted by their COO in that awayday last February at the Kenilworth Holiday Inn Express".

Doesn't explain why the club badge was so massive, though.

Or why, for a club that is now reputedly far richer than God, our kit launch looked like it was done for less than the price of a three-pack of Durex.

You also have the world's best club song, though. All these months later, it's still at #1 in four cities in Thailand. Although everyone there think it's for Charlton.

Laughed my head off when they played these.

Revealed our new kits today, like the home shirt (more red in it than last year) but I'm really not a fan of the away kit, never liked Green for an outfield player.

Looks odd not having our old badge, but the new one doesn't look too bad on the home kit.

New Brentford badge is much better. Old one was a shitty old fashioned mess.

Our club is fine. So confident for the new season that we haven't even organised pre season schedule let alone thought about signing any players.

Apologies if I caused offense fella. Was only jesting.

No worries BB.
I thought that was a wind up when I read you haven't arranged any pre-season games. What on earth is going on? Have you even got a Manager yet?

Yeah appointed Dave Flitcroft a couple of weeks ago who's now struggling to find opponents for friendly matches because everyone else sorted out pre season a few months ago.

For some reason those upstairs didn't bother arranging any sort of schedule so we're already behind every other team in terms of preparation. What a shambles.

Probably come begging at your door for a behind closed doors friendly at some stage I expect.

Seems to be the fashion these days. Steadily getting higher and higher over the past couple of years, probably so they show up more often on TV
