Does any of the cash go to our club for licensing the design? If not, not interested!

Hi guys

Firstly "RLGEAR" is right the initial shirt is not quite as we requested and will be reworked to give a more accurate representation of the shirt (though there does appear to be 2 or 3 different versions of the "S"icon_wink.gif

Secondly regarding licensing and contributions going to the respective clubs. In this instance the S was never a licenced mark of the club (as far as we are aware), but is of course related to the club. As stated we have tried on several occasions, emailed and snail mail, to contact the chief exec to discuss our plans and ways we may be able to contribute to the youth set up, foundation trust or similar, basically somethng that will be of benefit to the long term of each and every club Relix has an association with. Currently we have had no response but this does not mean we have given up trying.

As for the waiting time for shirts to arrive, it is the first time that anyone has questioned this. Of course like all things of this nature we are led by our suppliers and the timescale involved is indicative of those quoted by suppliers.

Indeed Mr Limb, it is completely the individuals choice whether or not to make a purchase. Though could I please ask what in particular (apart from the S) "doesn't look like the original"?

If we could come to an agreement with the club and then sell the volume required to cover costs and indeed make a profit we would be only too willing to make a contribution either in the form of advertising, foundation trust or to a suitable youth project.

Finally as for the sizes we use the L, XL etc as guides but have also added the sizes in inches as well because some products are a little on the small side but are already marked up with L,XL etc. (if that makes sense)
We can have larger sizes made to order if required (and you are able to wait the extended lead time!!)

Thanks for your interest in Relix

The red 'S' shirt of the 70's had red cuffs not white. To my knowledge there was two away shirt versions. Dark green with a white 'S' and a white jersey with a red 'S'. There was also a special red shirt with a white badge featuring a devil for the 1976 Premiership Final against St Helens.

Not surprised. They rarely respond to fans e mails either.

The dark green shirt had a gold 'S' on it, not white. I think, but couldn't be sure, it was a tribute to the fact that we'd played the touring Aussies that year and beaten them.

Also as another completely useless but interesting fact, that kit was worn by the staff of Audenshaw Grammar School in the annual Staff -v- 1st XV RU challenge match in either 1979 or 1980, clearly, John Knighton (our PE teacher and Salford loose/2nd row forward) had helped himself to it!!

might aso have some to do with this from Dec 2010 club email

A special year deserves a special shirt, and that is exactly what we have for you!

Retro-styled and made from a fantastic, traditional cotton-based material, the Willows Commemorative shirt feels exactly like rugby shirts used to feel, but with all the benefits of modern manufacturing techniques.

Featuring the official City of Salford crest for one season only, this is a must-have piece of memorabilia for any true Reds fan, and even more excitingly, it also features the return of the Red Devil to the front of the shirt (in the form of an external tag on the bottom corner) in tribute to those Salfordian warriors from decades past!

Thousands of heroes have worn the famous scarlet jersey on the hallowed turf of The Willows over the last 110 years, and it is fitting that in 2011 - the final year for rugby at the grand old stadium - that the current squad will wear a shirt that commemorates not only the stadium, but those legends who graced its playing surface.

Now you, as supporters, have the opportunity to own what will undoubtedly become a much coveted piece of history, and can preorder it NOW to guarantee you will not miss out. Whether you are buying it to wear and show your colours with pride, or to get signed and framed to hang on your wall (ask in the Club Shop for further details on framing), it is something every proud Salfordian will want to own.

The shirt will be worn in all major home games of the final season at The Willows!
