Wouldn't it be possible, in this day and age, to produce the jersey's that are for sale to the fans without the sponsors logos on them? because lets face it........... they look duff with them on.

Logically yes, but I presume it'll be something contractual with the sponsor and the club. I'd presume if they were to offer it without sponsors, they'd hike the price up for it too.

I can't believe that there is all this negativity towards the shirts having sponsors, The commercial manager has done a great job getting at last for the first time some real sponsorship behind the club and getting names on shirts = cash for the club, and it gives the team some much needed credibility that these sponsors are willing to put there name to the club, part of the deal in return is that the club advertise these sponsors in the community by fans wearing the shirts. All the top teams in euro leagues have sponsors everywhere on the tops and I am glad our top is starting to look similar, like a professional shirt. If I was a sponsor and had ploughed money into the flyers and read these comments I would be saying "why bother" my support is not appreciated.

Just another opportunity for the so called fans to moan about the club, seems like it doesn't matter what the club does these guys will bitch about it.

They arnt "so called" fans, everyone on this forum is a fan but with there own views on the team, I am not happy with all aspects of the team, as no one ever will be, but I think that by filling the shirt with sponsors and bringing a lot of money to the club making it more sustainable I think they have done a really good job.

Jings, what next? After spending the close season slagging just about every decision made by the club and employees, now the moaners and groaners want the sponsors removed from the jersey? It beggars belief. COYF

Nobody is slagging of the club or any sponsors folk are only discussing what they think about the new strips. We all understand the benefits of having more sponsors bringing more finances for the team.
His about you stop jumping to conclusions that because people are having a sensible discussion about a strip they are suddenly moaners having a go about everything the club does.
Maybe just maybe they like a strip not so busy like the NHL ones. That's not moaning it's just a personal preference.

I never slagged anyone off and in fact said everyone is entitled to there opinion, but can people not see by removing sponsorship from the tops we lose incoming finance to the club, at a time when we should be trying to improve by moving away from the "we are a gate based club" mentality which shackles our growth.

Nobody is suggesting removing the sponsors from the strip. The question was would a strip without them for fans be an option. As I said already everybody understands why there are so many on the strip and the reasons for them.

As I said already everybody understands why there are so many on the strip and the reasons for them. I guess that would be a complete non-starter as part of the terms of the sponsorship agreement will be that the logos are on every strip. That's generally how sponsorship works, companies are looking for a return on their investment. I can't think of any sport where you can buy kit without these logos, except perhaps back in the day when alcohol/cigarette companies sponsored football teams and they took it off kids strips. This was a legal requirement though not through choice.

What is the rule of thumb for buying a Flyers jersey ? Do you have to buy smaller than your regular clothing size to compensate for not wearing pads .

I normally go a size up as I wear a hoodie under mine, if you are going to the club shop I'm sure pam will let you try one on to make sure you get the right size we normally get to.
