Daniel Amokachi 0 Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 no brand is interested in splashing mega cash on us so your point is irrelevant. Nike and Adidas will get us the most exposure and are the best looking brands by a mile 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
UCF2008 0 Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 no brand is interested in splashing mega cash on us so your point is irrelevant. Why? We've been the talk of world football for the past six months and weren't the exactly smallest of brands in the first place. I'm not saying we could get a deal to rival Liverpool's. I'm just pointing out that some lesser known brands will pay a premium to make their mark. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have been the talk of the UK but you are stretching it with 'world'. Our media attention hasn't been positive and if you honestly think we are going to get more lucrative sponsorship/brand interest than before with no European football then your head is in the clouds. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We may or may not have been getting additional coverage in the 3rd world, but Europe, the US and Far East have been hearing about Rangers a lot more than usual. It's certainly been mostly negative press from our point of view, but I would imagine the sectarian issue coverage in recent years has been more damaging to our image on a global scale. What I think we're capable of compared to what we actually do achieve in terms of sponsorship and brand interest is down to our owners. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
amms 0 Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 Any of the Barca kits + the Inter home ones of the past decade all look awesome. Try this for size: or So is tie-dye back in fashion then? Am I the only one who thinks this looks like a spoof strip? I mean it's like those dodgy versions you find in Thai street markets. My BB junior section team used to wear Barcelona strips, circa Cruyff late 70s, you'd have been ridiculed had you turned up in Springburn Park wearing that top though. C'mon, do better. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

amms 0 Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 The Juventus and Inter Milan strips are okay. The Juve strip is iconic, it's kind of hard to fuck it up, but to be fair Nike would normally find a way. Inter I'm no real fan of that strip, but it's an acceptable version I suppose. A collar would help both. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aha, the heart of the issue. Adidas make bags and tight t-shirts and vests for long jumpers and football boots and Samba and Gazelle. That's what they are good at, they should stick to it. Umbro don't. They make football strips. End of. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt if they make that much money off of their other products outwith the football strips right enough. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
