2 coats found with the wrong badges, been investigated by adidas and it was a mistake when putting the order together.  Swansea don't even use/sell those jackets, and have only signed up with Adidas this year.

One thing for sure is, that this would have blown over without any comment if the fan that publisized would have just gone back to the shop and swapped his jacket.  Because of this, and the washbag picking up on it this it has now jepordised the renewing of our contract with adidas, which they are talking about at the moment.  Apparently due to this "fan", Swansea, Stoke, Rangers and other major clubs have contacted adidas to ask for an investigation, and adidas are not happy with STFC because of the bad publicity (that has been raised by one of it's own fans)

2 Jackets FFS, well done, some people should think about who will suffer before posting some stuff on social media or blogs, I hope you don't moan when we are wearing Macron kits after next season.

Adidas have given us the best kits in my memory.  It looks like we will be back to tin pot kits after next season.  The manager of the club shop ain't happy.  Oh she would also had some choice words for Fatbury 

On another note, apparently our away kit next year is something special.  Picked by the shop manager who chose the blue third shirt 2 seasons ago, and our away shirt this season so she has good taste.  The shite home shirt last season was picked by Fitton. 

So you're well in with someone at the club, Berniman? Either that, or you work for the club?

Either way, your rant reads to me like a classic Bob Holt press release;

'The bastard that made this problem a public one has harmed the clubs image and could damage precious revenue streams. This is a very serious matter and I therefore suggest that all real town fans - who I know would never act in any way that might harm the club - should all now turn on this complete bastard and blame him for any future fall out or breakdown in negotiations with Adidas.'

Strange that you're trying to single out the bloke who blabbed about being ripped off by the club / Adidas, but you don't have the bollocks to have a pop at the Washbag, the TEF or other media outlets who carried the story....

Whoever your contact at the club is, tell them to fuck off and quit peddling their bully-boy messages.

Fuck the revenue streams if they have tried to sell second hand gear at big prices they can take there revenue streams elsewhere.

Totally agree.  The kids/youth sizing is completely ridiculous and completely overpriced as well.  £70 for a full kit for a 4 year old is a disgrace.  The sort of prices Adidas charge why shouldn't somebody make it common knowledge?

Have to disagree with most of Berniman's most, especially the 'adidas have provided us with the best kit in living memory' point.  Sorry but I think we've been caught up in the brand here. Yes it's nice to have an adidas kit but come on we've basically got left over merchandise which has had a cheap iron on badge stuck on - which doesn't justify the prices they charge.

And to use "fan" in quotation marks is out of order, the bloke is a whistleblower and is right to do so, don't try and belittle the bloke just because he hasn't towed the party line here.

the quality of the kits made by adidas are good but I fucking hate the shitty non original same template as everyone else kit design these days.

fucking horrible.

[Bogus Dave]

we've got the exact same kit as macclesfield, albeit in a different colour.

it's not anything special

I went in the club shop before yesterdays game. Whilst the replica shirts are nice, I won't be buying one due to the totally naff iron on badge.

Some of the leisure wear's nice too, but the club badge is on the right hand side, instead of the left.

Left without buying anything. Adidas may be a 'marque' brand,. but it's not a great supplier of gear to lower league clubs.

My Southampton supporting mate noticed this. Is it something I should be worried about?

The badge should always be on the left hand side Spence! Look at polo shirts produced by Adidas for Chelsea and Liverpool and that's what you'll see. Our leisure wear is just generic stock with the Adidas logo over your heart and the club badge ironed on the right.

It may not be that big a deal, but it looks a bit tinpot.
