Shels new jersey, looks a bit plain.

We getting a new one.....maybe.....next week...sponsor be nice...

TangyZizzle

It's red and has a crest, what more could you want from a jersey?

Besides, there'll be a sponsor in on it in time for the new season.

Some sort of unique style? Our last 2 kits are fcuking lovely with the imprinted crest and old collar. We stuck with Umbro for few more years, wouldnt mind going with Macron but not if they come up with that.

We have no sponsor hence maybe next week etc:

Do you even know what manufacturer you'll be with next season? Last I heard - your club shop didn't even know when they'd have the new stock in and they weren't allowed sell the old.

2nd year of a 5 year contract with Umbro.

Sadliers last action as CEO........If it was up to me i would get Proteam to make the gear and get this lad to design it and make 50% profit on every jersey sold (€40 max)

Rather than the cut we get now, altho not paying Umbro makes the cut smaller and smaller

Nice......training top.

That Shels jersey was a one off, for sale between the end of the season and the Cup Final. No main sponsor is confirmed for next season yet.

bohs and limerick going with macron too.

I though Macron was the kit supplier for clubs that owe Umbro money? :pac:

Ah, the LOI kit rumours thread - I've been looking for you.

Vicious rumours circulating that Pats will be moving away from the conventional polypropylene-based sock in favour of an ultra-modern polyamide variety.

Isn't it next season's shirt but without any potential sponsor's logo on it?

Yes, hence it's a one off without the sponsor.;)

I've always considered the polypropylene sock as a fire hazard. The sooner this sort of atypical unprofessionalism in the LOI is stamped out the better.

Gavin "shels"

So 2 players have already rejected Pats for Shels, hopefully it will be 3 soon enough.

Didnt want to start a new thread but I was browsing some of the LOI clubs websites, and one thing jumped out at me and that is the lack of coverage the youth side of St Pats get. No match reports or any information can I find about them, when compared to the likes of Shamrock Rovers and Boh's websites youve player profiles and match reports from the youth matches. They have got a youth side dont they:rolleyes:

So going by the Shels and Dundalk reasoning of last season that means the Shels are spending mega bucks.

No but spending more than Bohs should have been last season, yes definitely

stovelid

In fairness, outbidding BAB (Bucko and Backers) will raise alarm bells.

Unless, assuming youse are part time, maybe the players have jobs and Pats are going to full-time training.

Pats haven't signed anyone yet so there is nothing to gauge anything on. We haven't signed anyone yet that wasn't with us last year.

Ask yourself why Bisto rejected Shels modest wage/bonus contract for Bohs contract, or maybe just ask Bisto or his brother and they'll them you! Our house is in order and has been since our fall, I suggest concentrating on yourselves first.

We'll be staying part-time and not in Europe, so in a way it attracts players who work full time, e.g. Cassidy who turned Pats down due to work last season, and possibly Pender who supposedly signing for us due to work commitments and not being able to take time for Europe.

I could think of a dozen reasons before even looking at money. I know exactly what Bohs budget was last season and where the bulk of that budget went.

It's really not up to the clubs to go updating facebook pages about their players. If you're so appalled by it, there's nothing stopping you from doing it.

What has Facebook got to do with Gringo's comment?

I know the Wexford Youths website keeps up to date with the U19 squad

heck even longford town, who are botton of the u19 northern section with a point give updates! pats are 4th in the elite section so its not like there is depressing news coming out/
its poor form not to give them any coverage on the club website. player profiles isnt a must but at least the odd report is good.

It just seems St Pats don't give any recognition to there U19 team which in my opinion is wrong, they seem to be the only L.O.I club in fact that don't.

TangyZizzle

Usually this info is taken directly from players facebook/wiki pages. For example - you look up Brendan Giller on facebook and you get 'B.Giller athlete' which is linked straight to his wiki

..woulda made more sense if I said wiki originally

What? Nobody mentioned Wiki or Facebook? I'm talking about the official club website.

No it's not. There is more to life and the internet (for most people) than Facebook and Wiki. Many clubs put significant resources in to official websites, others don't, that's the discussion.

actually cant see the u19 side mentioned on the sligo website either. (was trying to find out if they did us a favour against derry, the match could be tomorrow though)
a website is part of the licencing criteria, it should at least have some sort of standard for providing information. derry city's isnt exactly snazzy but all the info is there. (as in the loi table is a print screen of the loi website)

U-19 info for St Pat's is on the fans forum.

Himself and the board could not agree on the way rovers were going to go into the future apparently. He said he has no other job lined up - odds on him being northern irelands next manager have shortened considerably though.
