Confirmed New sponsorship & Home kit Launch (Spud Bros)
Is this our last season with Castore?
Nope.
Think the first seasons kits were class, this year and last have been poor in my opinion! Just seen theres a big sale on most items by castore in the shop so wondered if it was a clear out before new manufacturers?I don't mind Castore to be fair.
Some decent albeit expensive bits of clobber in the shop and a big improvement on the awful Just Sport and Nike deal....not difficult l know.

Agree the first season Castore did them, they were class and they have tailed off a bit....but still miles better than that crap Nike did.
I'd like to see them do a proper collared shirt similar to the Baxi 2001 one.
Something plain and simple like that would be cool.

Given that most of the Spud Bros merchandise is being sold off at half price, I guess we must be getting a new shirt sponsor?
Anyone heard anything on the grapevine?

They always sell stock half price at this time in the season.Given that most of the Spud Bros merchandise is being sold off at half price, I guess we must be getting a new shirt sponsor?

Thought I'd got a bargain buying the PNE Argentina home shirt for my holiday for just £18.
Then a week later, it was reduced even further to £12 although no idea if my size (L) remained.
Still, better than £70 or whatever the original cost was.

As JD mentions, unlike Just Sport who used to keep everything at full price Castore reduce the prices so a bargin can be had.
The sale is very good, 70% of some stuff…Think the first seasons kits were class, this year and last have been poor in my opinion! Just seen theres a big sale on most items by castore in the shop so wondered if it was a clear out before new manufacturers?
I’ve just bought a blue training t shirt , was £45 now £15 👍🏻
Also the shower jackets ( ideal for summer ) reduced from £80 down to £40

Lumo trains have just made Preston as their HQ. Brand trying to get noticed and integrate themselves in their new home town, would be a good strategic fit and we have previous with Virgin Trains.
Zedan Polo Club in a £100m sponsorship deal would be better though👍

I really don't like this season's home shirt , it doesn't look white , it looks more cream coloured....Think the first seasons kits were class, this year and last have been poor in my opinion!

I don't like sponsors logo either in red / gold
Can I ask where have Spud Bros gone see very little in the way of social media posts that was there role afterall from what started out as positive has dwindled to obscurity a bit like our season. But seriously whats happening with the whole situation?

They (one of them at least) were at the last home game doing the half time competition.
Their role is the shirt sponsor, not sure anybody knows what the actual deal/contract is in relation to social media posts.
There might not be any obligation to post anything for all we know.

I don’t know who makes the decisions on the kit designs, but I hope it’s someone different under new ownership. Apart from the one 3 shirts ago, they’ve mostly looked horrible.
Get someone with better taste to do the picking, or throw it open to the fans.

Signed off a while ago and will be no changes in terms of next season's kits.
Not sure about the other club partners who are yet to be confirmed.
Commercial operations are something that needs significant focus moving forward. At the same time there will be a recognition for those who have backed the club previously despite little efforts by the current senior management.

Couldn’t find a relevant thread, so this’ll do as its sponsor related.
Had a problem with some house martins last year and looking to get a head start on proofing before they pitch up again.
Who do I call? Of course, Lancashire Bird Control. Heavily advertising, so surely wanting business and of course I want to employ a business connected to the club.
Lady answering the phone didn’t want know, fill in the online form. Filled in two online forms and sent about four emails. Absolutely nothing, not even the courtesy of a response.
I’ve always spoken so highly of you Lancashire Bird Control but you’ve let me down so badly when I needed you.

I like the look of most items in club shop but the quality of the stickers always let it down.
I’ve also noticed other clubs with Castore have similar training gear as us just with different badges so not very unique either.
Maybe you need to, Think for a minute.
Perhaps it was Happy Hour or they were just Anxious.
Me and the farmer have used them several times to get rid of four or less birds, but any more and Five get over excited.
I'm sure you're commentss are valid, but I'm Sitting on the fence, at least until Flag day.
