Jezzman Posted May 12, 2006 Posted May 12, 2006 I thought I'd read on here that the official date was the first of June? Makes me wonder if all images we've seen of the shirts are b******s as well? REDS CONFIRM ADIDAS DEAL http://www.liverpoolfc.tv/kits/ Liverpool Football Club and adidas have confirmed a new sponsorship deal which comes into effect from July 2006. Under the terms of the agreement, adidas will become the Official Sportswear Supplier to the Club. The partnership is a natural alliance between the number one football brand and the current UEFA Champions League winners, and will see Liverpool FC provided with the latest, most advanced sportswear. Liverpool joins an exclusive list of Clubs who benefit from adidas' expertise including Real Madrid, AC Milan, Bayern Munich, Ajax, Olympic Marseille and the recently signed Chelsea FC (season 2006/7). Rick Parry, Chief Executive, Liverpool Football Club, said: "We had a very successful partnership with adidas in the 1980's and are delighted to be teaming up with them again. adidas has a fantastic football heritage and we know that we will work well together. We are looking forward to producing a range of products that the fans will be proud to wear." Erich Stamminger, President and CEO of the adidas brand, added: "adidas has a long tradition of working with the top football clubs globally, and Liverpool has always been one of the World's leading teams. Most fans will know our previous proud heritage with the Club and that we have delivered some of their most iconic shirts to date. We are delighted to have the opportunity to reignite this relationship and build a long and dynamic partnership going forward."
BDB Posted May 12, 2006 Posted May 12, 2006 Way to get the momenum in, these should be on sale as soon as the WC is over at the latest. Sack Parry!
Jezzman Posted May 12, 2006 Author Posted May 12, 2006 It's terrible merchandising. Think of how many shirts we could've sold in connection to (before and during) the WC.... Must be a sh it deal we've made with Reebok...
oojason Posted May 12, 2006 Posted May 12, 2006 Thin adidas may be a little busy trying to produce and flog loads of shirts for the World Cup - and then will get around to club shirts soon after. Hopefully adidas and the club will have enough shirts to go around - and there won't be repeat of the CL shirt fiasco from last year...
Guest Big King Vik Posted May 12, 2006 Posted May 12, 2006 Wonder if any of those shirts circulating the interweb are real.
jkfelix Posted May 12, 2006 Posted May 12, 2006 Don't like them. The three shirts are too similar. Too much black. Nice slapstick, guys. Still waiting for the drum (*whappisshhh*) at the end, though
libero Posted May 12, 2006 Posted May 12, 2006 Nice slapstick, guys. Still waiting for the drum (*whappisshhh*) at the end, though I believe you want a Badoomtish With that.
