  • And as we stand on the cusp of promotion to the Championship, let's not forget how far we've come. I posted this on Facebook three years ago today...

  • There was a guy at the club who was very helpful. Told him the name I was looking for and he looked through the bricks with me. As it happened, I found it myself. Don’t know his name but he was everyt

I hope not. They are a small proportion of our fan base and, in no way, representative of us all. The club opening up such opportunities to everyone is to be welcomed.

Reebok is on a par with the likes of Dunlop, Hi-Tech, and Slazenger these days

One to avoid

Dumbed down by Adidas. Hopefully they can rise again.

A very difficult task is that. 

Reducing quality and therefore reputation is easy.

Building it back up certainly isn't.

Once bitten, twice shy and all that.

Didn’t they do Liverpool’s a few years ago?

Didn't know that New Balance made football kits till I saw Cardiff's today

quick look on their site and they make Lille, Porto, Leverkusen and Atalanta

but they don't mention Cardiff on there

My mate works for new balance and they had an order off cardiff for thousands of Cardiff shirts with ‘Bale’ on the back.

He didnt sign for them in the end 🤣🤣🤣

Just heard the fella from Reebok Joe Foster on radio manc news saying he has been asked for years by the public to connect back with Bolton and he says he would love to now they aren't owned by adidas any more and the message has been sent. 

Heard some rumours the stadium naming rights might be changing again for next season, to something altogether more familiar... 👀

Let’s hope they pay at least what’s being paid now before folk get giddy.

The Toughsheet deal has another 2 seasons to run after this one, but I hope those rumours are correct. 

It will have to be a very good deal if that's the case, the Toughsheet sponsorship is I believe the biggest in the league

At the supporters meeting a couple of weeks ago Sharon said Toughsheet (Dougie) would be willing to step down if it was best for the club.

Oh yeah. Forgot about that. 🤞

That will pale into insignificance compared to the foam that will be generated over the idea of them making our kits again in future.

Im less bothered about Reebok having to make the kits though, unless they pulled something bespoke and amazing out of the bag like say a modern take on a 90s classic like the concept lad does on Twitter.

That one Reebok did for Charlton this season (after much hype) was nothing special. If Macron had made it, it would have been slagged off for being boring.

The only way that this idea being teased of Reebok having some involvement again makes any sense IMO.

I still do. Never stopped. Like 'the Gillette Cup' it got in first & will never go.

Now, I'm off to get a pound of bacon and a pint of milk.

Even my kids call it "The Reebok", and one of them wasn't even born when the Reebok sponsorship ended - the other had barely learned to speak. I haven't gone out of my way to brainwash them, they've just picked it up from everyone else calling it that. Bit like if Burnden had been renamed "The Normid Superstore Stadium". No fucker would have called it that.

Can't imagine they'd want to wait until about 2031 or whenever it is though so they'd have to pay Macron off perhaps?

EDIT: Sorry. Talking shite. Thought you were talking about Toughsheet stadium sponsorship not Macron kit manufacture.

With the Umbro retro stuff, I get the impression that Macron aren’t too bothered about that side of things, so we could see a licenced Reebok retro range rather than the actual kit. Which, let’s be honest, would be fucking mega.
