Say what you will, but I think the kit looks beautiful. It's a nicer version of the 08/09 kit which was lovely in it's own right. KoS fits well on the shirt too.

If you don't like it, don't buy it.

My first reaction when seeing this was that I thought it looked pretty nice. Then again, I really didn't like the kit from last season, but it seemed like a lot of people were raving about it. I guess we're impossible to please!

Skimming through some of the older filings on Companies House it looks like back around 2013 they were turning over 5-10 million but making a loss and reading between the lines that has dropped off further.

It’s hardly likely to have grown much since then - they’ve been selling to the John Lewis group for a few years now

Think you are likely right. Looking at receivables its double what they are in the current year. Would suggest a figure aroud £2m is accurate.

I think the King brother’s could shit on some of our fans doorsteps and they’d just say ‘thank you for the fertiliser Mr King sir’

Its yet more genius planning from DK and Robins ....... planning for the lazy git trend of wearing beards & mo's to die down (any day surely) and we'll be ready to pounce and fund the club with wealth of (approx. eleventy billion) riches. I'm off to by some KoS stuff right now!

king of shaves are a similar size to the Tallon type sponsorships we used to have in the old division 1
They would not be paying more than £100k max

The sponsorship issue aside, I really don't like that at all. Lots will love it though and I'm sure it will sell well.

Serious question... does anyone know what the rough amount is for a front of shirt sponsor for a Championship club? Using generic, middling clubs like say Swansea and Hull as an example? Genuinely no idea what you're supposed to be getting for this kind of thing.

Absolutely no idea and no evidence but I would think maybe a couple of hundred grand? I’d imagine plenty in the championship are a lot less than that and in the 10s. Most aren’t huge businesses, a lot are from the area and SMEs.

Saw something that says the average for a Championship team is around £500,000 a season.

It's one of those things that's rarely stated. Such and such company has agreed a new shirt sponsorship deal for x years. The club is delighted and so are they blah blah

It's all income to the club and we need as much of that as we can get
Click to expand...

I don't think we've maximised income from that main shirt sponsor tbh.

Besides, plastering it with multiple sponsors will turn people off from buying it, so would be a false economy. People would just buy retro shirt remakes from 3rd party retailers in even greater numbers. I like to think that we won't see any further relaxing of the rules on shirt sponsorship beyond where we are now.

As you say, rarely any info on it but looks like I might have been way off.

REVEALED: Championship shirt sales outstrip rest of ‘Big 5’ second tiers combined | Sporting Intelligence

That might be offset by how many betting company sponsorships there are though. Outside of Betting Companies it’s midsized businesses who aren’t going to have huge marketing budgets.

Taken together they have the back, sleeve and shirt front sponsors they're possibly not doing too badly compared to last year I'd guess. And we're shot of Boyle.

I worked for a company a few years ago that was quoted £500k for a Championship side. We ended up going for a small League One side at £100k.

I guess there's ground advertising within those figures too that we don't get not owning the stadium.
