They aint released a pic of it yet, I dont want to be in trouble with them garlic munchers

Fair dues.



Hey have you ever thought about linking up with Matchwinner to do some class Rovers gear?

Matchwinner



I only deal with brands with European factories and offices, it makes the meetings a bit more worthwhile

Look there's a market for retro gear - tap into it.



Had a look on Octopus Sport (Retro Rugby's site), they managed to sell out all sizes of the Hanson White Print retro shirt they did, Rovers fans (and Hull fans) love classic gear, you know it makes sense.

There is no money in it, trust me, otherwise Hull and Rovers would of made retro shirts pal.

Best thing to do is hope that Kooga design a decent shirt sometime in your lifetime

I'd buy retro.

But I [uWILL NOT[/u, =#000040under any circumstances buy off the internet - too much fraud - so rely on shops.

But, of course, you don't find retro Hull gear in Pauline's Gift shop or Chinese Laundry. If I could visit a shop supplying clean, used Hull FC kit I'd buy all my Christmas presents from there. Gap in the market, methinks.

Hull have on a few occassions, + presumably they've sold out their stock each time, otherwise they'd still be stuck with it which I don't believe they are.



Obviously that's never going to happen, so IMO there's a golden chance for someone in Hull to pick up the ball and run with it. Take it and sprint Digger.

Hmm, partly agree about fraud, although it is possible to weed out the dodgy sellers on auction websites, e.g. if you buy from a seller with 100% positive feedback it's usually quite safe.

By the time we have buggered about designing it, making it and shipping it the mark up would be rubbish unless you charged around £75 a shirt and who is going to pay that for a retro jersey?

Plus there is the small matter of the clubs stamping their feet and complaining about use of badge/design etc.

I don't want anymore emails squeaking threats at me

Fair dues, you know your business better then me mate, shame though.



Mental eh, IMO you'd be doing nothing wrong - if Rovers want to continue having a very poor range of merchandise in this area I don't see why independent businesses can't give fans what they want.

100% got that part right, i honestly and truely think i could do a better job myself.

do any of you remember nick halafihi? i was in his office the other day (he's a university lecturer of mine) and saw a matchwinner KR shirt!

was he ever any good for you?

Another christmas approaching and no HKR calendar again, surely this is easy money for the club in the run up to christmas.

I thought it'd be hard to do but the range this year seems even worse than last.

Approx. 1/4 of our current fan base will remember him, and the second answer is a polite NO.

Next time you go in his office, throw some celery at him, sit back and watch his reaction!

FFS Rovers get the shirt unveiled soon, Hull's been on sale a couple weeks already.

Waiting for Big W to arrive so him and Blake do the honours?

I don't think any of the KooGa kits have been released have they?

KooGa in being hopeless shocker, never would have predicted that.

fair enough lol, i think he thinks of the club more fondly than you think of him, lol!
care to explain the celery comment? im actually going in to see him tomorrow for a meeting because he has graded a presentation of mine unfairly, and any leverage would be appreciated?

Ask him how he's getting on with running Karate England, he'll like that.

hahah, funnily enough, the whole course knows about that because of me, i did a quick google search when he told us all he was an ex rugby league player, he seemed to ignore that part of his professional past though!

Halafifi was embroiled in a missile throwing incident at Leigh in the 2003 Play Off game. Disgruntled Rovers fans "pelted" Neil Turley with sticks of celery. Nick H didn't come out of the incident with much credibility, and he forgot to bring the salt as well!

I seem to recall we copped a fine for this. Nasty stuff once airbourne is celery! Hammas should try it out as an alternative to those dodgy missiles they use in Gaza.

Gonna have a bloody big wait then eh.

Why, what's happened?
