[Leitherhibs]

Anyone an idea of how much Marathon bet deal was worth per season? Interesting to know how much potential cash we’ve ‘lost out’ on.

That away kit is giving me the aubergines 🍆🍆🍆

[LancashireHibby]

Really can’t decide whether I like it or not. The option of buying without the sponsor is quite attractive though.

Both of they kits are a bit of art😍😍😍

I like both kits so well done Hibs. Home kit is a touch of class and the colours in the way kit are very nice. However, given that some people cry out for a purple away kit every few years and it generally makes for a nice kit - have we ever actually won a game wearing purple?

We have had purple:
94-96
96-98
01-03
Thistle kit around 11-12?

Most likely would be 94-95? Does someone know and I would be interested to know?

Best Celtic 3-2 at Parkhead in 1992 wearing purple, back when they were relatively pish!

Is it fair to assume that for Hibs, in our current position, the cash value of renting out the front of our strip, a few signs around the stadium, online ads and social media plugs isn't worth the moral sacrifice of partnering with malignant entities like gambling companies?

If so, I'm very happy with that. Hopefully more clubs take note and follow suit.

From the media at the time:

Marathonbet has also signed a two-year deal to be the main sponsor of the Scottish Championship League’s Hibernian FC. In exchange for what the club called a “significant” six-figure sum, Marathonbet will see its logo adorn the players’ home and away shirts and will get to operate in-stadium betting at Easter Road. Marathonbet replaces ginger beer maker Crabbie’s, who’d acted as Hibs’ sponsor for the past three years. Marathonbet CEO Graham Luke called his company’s first foray into Scottish football “a key vehicle in broadening the awareness of our brand.”

While financial details of the sponsorships have not been released, Hibs have said each was significant and reflected both the club’s status and its return to the Premiership.

Whyte and McKay was £200k per year from their deal.

The home shirt is a Macron template.

It’s identical to the San Marino home shirt (of which I bought when out there watching Scotland).

It’s a cracking shirt BTW. I’m a beer belly Large in Adidas, Nike, etc.

I bought XXL for the San Marino shirt.

The strips are bang average. Need to get rid of macron asap.

£52 inc logo

I really like the new tops especially the away one but i won't be paying £52 for it. That's ridiculous.

[One Day Soon]

Sorry to swim against the tide but:

1. Home strip is 'meh'.
2. Away strip is a shocker with those pin stripes.
3. What is this cobblers about how it isn't disadvantaging us to have no sponsor income? Fair enough to go for the Community Foundation - very laudable and I quite like the idea - but it's button up the back stuff to claim it makes no difference to revenue. If it made no difference we'd never have had sponsors in previous years. PH may still have the same player budget as he would have but something else will go short of whatever revenue a sponsor would have brought.

Reads to me like they couldn't get a sponsor at a decent level and so it's been dressed up as something else.

[Austinho]

Think that's a good kit launch, the photography is very cool. Home shirt is one of the best Macron efforts this year too - clean, simple and doesn't have any of those ridiculous collars. Green is a wee bit too light for my liking, but not terrible. I like the matching thick green trim on the sleeves and bottom of the shorts. Away is a wee bit out there, but it will be popular with the fans so I'm happy with that - that collar is pretty cool, I like it.

Nice idea about the Community Foundation too. My only gripe is the HCF logo itself - crap, spindly font and as some say it's maybe printed a bit too high. Shot our own selves in the foot there as would otherwise have been classics.

Judging by the reaction on here and social media, I'd say you're very much in the minority.

Yep, but you crack on and get all over the other thread too, saying how its crap etc etc.

[greenginger]

Is there any mention of well heeled Hibbies on a high tax code donating to the Hibernian Community charity which would give them a tax break and allow the community to pay something for the promotion ?

Or is that too Yammish

Perhaps the community matched what the other offers were. LD hinted that they might not have been that great when she said the market was changing etc on Hibs TV. Maybe the extra fivers or some donations might have made up the deficit in what a commercial sponsor would have brought in. We might never know but I'm glad we have went this way and hope that morals and values are something that are valued as much as a few quid.

Strange one. I thought the delay was sorting out a sponsor. Surely need the income from a lucrative deal?

Did you read the article?
