I take it there IS going to be a new one? Anyone know when it'll be launched? Or, are they sticking with current shirt and just changing the sponsorhsip logo?

They said something about just changing the logo. When does the Adidas deal run out?

I'd heard that the home shirt was staying the same and the logo was changing and that the away strip and logo were changing completely.

We've seen the black away NTL strip, and I would have thought if they had chaged their mind about the home strip thay would have launched that first.

I just hope if they are only changing the logo, they do it properly and not like the PR disaster that befell Everton a couple of years back.....they changed from Danka to One to One (or the opposite way round I can't remember) but the new 'logo' was little more than a bar towel stitched over the top of the old one, and some young kid who's parents had bought him the 'new' strip went balistic when they found it was the old strip with the old logo underneath.

Our board are not exactly reknowned for their tact or PR skills so lest hoppe for the best eh!
