Morning,
According to Michael Steele a Bloomberg bloke, Under Armour will be suppliers to the Tottinghams come 2012.
Mixed reaction from me. This news will send a chill down the spine of those supporters who had ‘issues’ with Kappa kits. If you thought their stuff was a neat fit, Under Armour goods aren’t displayed on a coat hanger, they come in can.
The other question I would raise is why aren’t we going for a truly household name like Adidas or Nike? I’d be staggered if Levy & Co give a stuff about ‘individuality’ and this has more to do with the bottom line.
We’ll be told of course about all the technical benefits (techie fans you’ll love this stuff) and how in 10 years time they’ll all be wearing it. Mmn.It would take me 10 years of going to the gym to get one of these bar stewards on.
Another chunk of money in the bank to add to to the double sponsorship deal – Good work again from Levy, brings the total to £75m of deals put into place so far this season (Please note, before some nurk says “It’s over 5 years” or something equally piss on chipsy, that I have said ‘put into place’ not actual money raised on the here and now). Hopefully all this is getting tucked away for NDP Pt2!
People getting in a tizzy over Nike, get over it. Go buy a pair of super bouncy £200 trainers if you want to get your label jolly on, I’d rather we had the money in the bank (Over a 5-year period).
Ta.
p.s. 0 shots on target. Zero, nada, nil, nish, sweet FA, bugger all, zip, 1 less than 1, a whole load of nothing… And STILL Water Battle boy reckons that they would have won it without the sending off. You’ve got to love him. Well actually you don’t, unless you’re a small, defenceless and tied to the radiator.
‘Spellcheck in aisle 6 please’

Can you honestly say that Puma have produced a quality shirt for us. a few washes and it looks ragged and passed its sell by date…..never a fan of Puma kit. Check out German team hannover 96 to see their UA kit…..looks good. Once we have a jersey that will last at least a full season and still look good, I couldn’t care less who makes them…..Navy and white…..right ???
