Macron btw dodgy Italian mafioso look out for global collapse.
That's me with a horse's head in my bed

Do you have any specific authority to suggest Macron S.p.A  currently or ever has had any mafia links?

"Iook out for global collapse" in what? The company? The Italian economy?

Macron is kitting out every team it can get its hands on & yes, there are allegations that they have links with the Italian Mafia. If something goes wrong with their supply chain, as often befalls the sportswear industry, there could be thousands of clubs with no kit. Otherwise they will attain global domination with the licensed replica market.

No, I don't have specific authority to claim such no more than you have to refute it. My awareness of it is thro a connection with the retail sport market.

However this should be of no concern to our Club in the short term. Purchase safely with pride.
 

 

Allegations made by whom? Competitors who are losing market share? The replica shirt market has been a cartel for too long. If there is something which can be substantiated, fair enough, otherwise it's low grade guff.

I'd say most Italian clothing and sportswear manufacturers will have some links to organised crime in them. 
 

 
What's your authority? Or is it just based on what you think happens in Italian business.

I'm really not trying to pick a fight. I live and work I in Piedmont and I have never encountered any Mafia influence. When the autostrada bridge collapsed in Genoa 2 years past all my Scottish in-laws jumped to the conclusion it was a Mafia contract. The reality they were all applying a stereotype. I think there is hardly any Mafia influence north of Rome.

I'm sure someone will google it now.

Well eventual release of the kits is tomorrow..
Lets see what we have this coming season.

Any predictions of who might be the guest photographer in the strip reveal photoshoot this year?

I'm hoping for Lord Clark! 

 I'm hoping it's Robbie Neilson flanked by his mentors Craig and Jim. It's not that whistling Rob can't do the photoshoot but he just lacks confidence and needs a bit of help with ideas

A guy i worked with a couple of years back Celtic fan put a picture up a few weeks back of a treble gin product that Edin Mill released as ltd edition comes in a nice box etc. hopefully we can get a few similar products. (not with treble winners but you never know)

Big fan of their Gin, and their Beers are not bad either.

There was a post put up from them on Twitter last night mate.

They are looking for suggestions for what would make the perfect 'Dundee United' Eden Mills Gin. Bottle design competition too.

Yeh seen that last night. It also shows as Dundee FC when you do it sadly.

Schoolboy error.

They've changed it now, thankfully.

Shown on sky sports news but nothing from official Utd site twitter or that.

Seriously, what a fuck up on their part.

Amateur hour once again.
 

A bit of a car crash from the media dept. Kit looks nice but the images they've put up of the full strip are pixelated as fuck. You zoom in and it doesn't really give you the full effect of it.

I'm fucking dreading this live streaming...

And who's to say United fucked up? For all we know Sky could have jumped the gun? Either way it doesn't really matter, it's all publicity and not everyone is on Twitter.

 

Its a fuck up from someone. no way should the new kit be on sky sports news before its been launched by the clubs media department via the official channels.
