Colours are slightly darker on the supporters version. Collar is also different to the players version.

Cheers. They are pretty different.
Still looks smart though.
How much are they?

I've now seen clearer pictures on Facebook.

The collars I can forgive. They're often different on playing and replica shirts.

But the colour? The smart looking silver is gone and it's essentially just a slightly lighter shade of black forming the V. (Well, incredibly dark gray, since you can't really have "light black"). Certainly different enough that it looks very much like a rip off.

Bulls have now put out a statement claiming that the original shirts in all the pictures and the ones played in at Oldham weren't actually the correct shirt....

THE BRADFORD BULLS REPLICA PLAYING SHIRTS HAVE NOW GONE ON SALE AND ARE AVAILABLE IN THE CLUB SHOP.

The primary shirt that Bradford fashioned during their fixture agianst Oldham, was from an outsourced company within the U.K, as oppose to the Bulls origional supplier in Fiji, ISC.

The kits would not have arrived in time for Bradford's round eight fixture against Oldham, if they were to arrive form overseas.

Our replica shirts in store are the origional design consulted between ISC and Bradford Bulls, then agreed for production.

Bradford's playing shirts will now suit the darker shade of black/grey alternative.

The website bloke still can't spell "original" though (although the spell checker has since corrected it)...

God, we are like a bad comedy sketch.

Re: Shirts/Merchandise : Sat Apr 15, 2017 3:31 pm  

That statement looks like it's been written by someone whose first language isn't English. We seem to be going from bad to worse. Not only a massive cock up over the away shirts, the statement on the website doesn't even make sense....

What does that even mean?

I know we are playing 'catch up', but it's time we started getting these little things right!

It's worrying that we can't seem to find someone to even write and proof read a simple spell press release properly. Again, how hard can that be? 99% of people on here could do a better job.

Spelling "original" with an extra O doesn't even need a proof read. It needs a basic spell checker which a lot of internet browsers would do for you even if you don't own a license for Word Processing software. Somehow that even managed to pass the first "release". Surely you run that before you press "Submit" on the website editor?

I can understand people moaning about the slight contrast between what the players are wearing and what is being sold to the supporters. But let's be honest, people will buy it regardless if it's black, silver, pink or poop stained brown.

People need to get out more if they're complaining about the kit. Just remember, we didn't have a club to support 5 months ago. The new owners are doing their best. Judging from that poorly written statement the squad will now be wearing the newer, more darker away jersey.

Also, can we please address the issue with these press releases. It's beyond a joke now.
