In that case why don't they make, say, 5 design templates and then encourage the fans to vote on their favourite design? Not every year I accept but at least it would give the fans a say in the shirt, given that they are are the intended consumers of the product. Surely this would be a good marketing idea?
Failing that, I reckon we should let Bullseye design it each year.
That's a decent idea - so long as the delay doesn't impact too much on the delivery date and no extra costs are involved in producing the designs. There's certainly something to be said for giving people the notion they've had some input, though if there are five designs to choose from you could finish up with the winner on around 25% of the vote and with 75% of the shirt buying public peeved about the result and maybe
less inclined to buy. As in, I would have got one, if they'd only gone for the green and pink one with the gold stars all over it...........
Incidentally, did anyone else read the statement on the website: "
The brand-new jersey – along with a fresh-look clothing range – is to be made exclusively available to BELONG 2014 season-ticket holders as of Monday, November 18, before going on general sale on Friday, November 22."" to mean they were available today Mon 18th to people who have paid for a season ticket - cos they're not!
