Oh my god. Do the club ever do anything wrong in your eyes.

Amazing the free pass some fans give the club on absolutely everything. You might think it's noble, but it doesn't help things.

Are we the only club that haven't released their new kit?

On one of the FB banter pages there's a guy keeping tabs and his last photo showed 6 kit releases for next season so far

Nah - Saints kits aren't out yet (home shirt teased a bit on the squad number announcement so I suspect it will be soon enough).

KR appears to have said they'll be out in time for Xmas, if that's the case then nowt to worry about. If they're not and other RL kits by the same manufcturer are, that's not great - particularly using Covid and Brexit as the reason given that's not exactly news is it.

As above the probable reason behind any delay (are we actually delayed yet, still five weeks to Christmas so plenty of time) is the fact we have had to find a new main sponsor. Then add in current shipping and customs timescales you can see why its knocked us on a bit. If we are still here on December 20th, then we've mucked up big time (kids presents) but the feeling I got from that KR interview didn't give off any major issues.

People shop well in advance of Christmas and if they’re not out by Black Friday then you’ve missed peoples last payday before Christmas.

Hull FC and Wakey have the same sponsors as last season so their kit could have been signed off months before Wigan's.

Can one ask instead then why the club needs to find new sponsors every season when other clubs keep theirs for years and years?

This.
That gives them roughly 10 days to have it revealed & released. I wouldn’t hold my breath given this lots track record.

The club doesn't need to find new sponsors every season. You've made that up.

Preston sponsored us for 2 seasons.
188 bet sponsored us for 3 seasons
Coral 1 season
Houses for homes (Charity sponsor) 1 season
Applicado 3 seasons
Mecca 2 seasons
JJB loads of seasons.
