I have seen tonight that the promised new delivery of shirts is in the shop.

The club / ISC seem to have acknowledged that the transfered sponsors is not a good thing. Sponsors now crudely stitched on. so much so that I am reconsidering buying one.

This years shirt has been the best looking one (imo) for a long time and yet the logos are so amateur. I bought my 4 year old son a shirt in early Feb. He loves it and has immense pleasure in annoying his mum by wanting to wear it 24/7. His shirt just 5 or 6 weeks later is a shabby mess. We have washed it inside out on 30 and then hung it to dry as instructed by the shop. He will not be getting much more wear from it as it looks a mess.

Have people a) had the same problems and b) has anyone got a refund.

The new shirts clearly show that a massive mistake has occured with the use of transfers.

mine's been fine (about 10 washes) but the transfers are starting to fade a slight grey! can't see the shirts lasting very long like others, but if in doubt get the away shirt, nothing can go wrong with them!!

Mines falling apart!!

My lads is falling apart as well and only been washed 8 times. Went and bought him the away top as it has more lasting power

Mines ok so far, but not worn it for a while, so hence not washed it more than 4 times I think.

Transfer on the back completly gone now - it was hanging off so I just helped it on its way.

Mines had about 10 washes, seems fairly OK

Might give it a boil though, so i can get a swap

I just blame the wife, can't be bothered taking the thing back

Not sure why people are that bothered about sponsors' logos coming off anyway!

Shouldn't have all been so tight. Mines in perfect condition

So is the new home shirt any good cause im thinking of buying one but i live in australia so if its going to fall apart ill prob pass on buying one????.

Whats the fit like are they normal fitting or are the tight fit???

I've washed mine about 10 times so far and no problems with it all.

I have just swapped mine (had to get a bigger size ?)
and i noticed the new sewn on sponsors logo , so I am un picking mine !

nop no problem with mine being washed either

Handwash mine just to be on the safe side.Upto now had no problems with it.

iv worn mine twice but dare not wash it !!

Reported mine to the club just over 2 weeks ago as very poor after 2 washes (as per wash instructions). Club advised that there is a problem with some but not all of the shirts and it seems that the seal on some of the transfers has not worked properly, It's not just a dodgy batch it is just hit and miss. I have 2 brothers and theirs are fine.

Shirts were out of stock at the time but they put my name down on a list of about 100 odd others and advised that they would ring me when shirts were back in stock, this they duly did and I picked my new shirt up on Friday, no questions asked and I did not have the receipt as it had been bought as an Xmas present, so well done the club.

The club are taking it up with ISC so no one should feel guilty about their shirt back, the club want the fans to be happy with their shirts and I am sure that ISC will probably end up footing the bill.

Fair play. Good news that and well done to FC.

Glad I got the away shirt



A couple of years ago I bought a nice top, predominately black with white hoops, it had the PO transfer across the middle, however the transfer gradually washed off,shirt looked washed out also due to it being cotton, it was difficult to handle, washing/drying etc.....Now I would never buy a shirt with transfers on, stitched on badges are the only way.

The good thing about the nylon is I have shirts years old yet they still look like new.

Took shirt back yesterday. As has been said it was a problem that has been taken up with ISC and will hopefully be rectified for next season.

As for the person who states whats the big deal about sponsors logos. The shirt looked a total mess with all the transfers falling off. There was a mark where they were and frankly after just 6 weeks I expect better of a £35 shirt.

Well done to the club for exchanging it. I now have a 4 year old who loves his new shirt and will proudly be wearing it throughout Sussex where we now live.

This seem to be a recurring problem with many teams shirts in recent years, as they get more expensive the quality gets worse. I suppose its because the manufacturers know that they will sell whatever cheap rubbish they produce because of fans loyalty to their club.

thats why i got a pro shirt more expensive but worth the extra bucks in the long run..

well my son got his for xmas he put on three times washed once and it faded i to it back in january and still waiting now asked to swap sizes NO is what i get i have had three home shirts myself this time i got myne on thursday is like a old shirt with patches ov new p&o patch over the old ones back chest arms so who ever has taken one back this is what were getting a patched up shirt ?

TBH the club and ISC only did what some fans were moaning about, they made cotton shirts for them and it is just causing more hassle. Stick to the tried and tested material next year FC.

Where can you buy the pro shirt??? its not on the web site???
