When was the last season we had to wait this long for even an image of the new kits?

After the disappointment of the play off finals, you'd think that there would be some sort of push to give the fans something to pick them up. All we've had is a very basic announcement that we've signed a player from Argentina.
The other thing that they could have done is either start to tease the new kits or unveil one in full.
I know loads of staff will be away on holiday, etc, but not having the kits ready in time for folk going on their summer holidays is a mistake and they will probably miss out on a load of sales.

I think having a lot of the old faces still hanging around at Tannadice, even with new owners and TA and MB running things, might mean the same old working patterns are presently being used to an extent.
United always seem to be at the coos tail introducing new kit, and the same appears to be happening this year.

Disagree a good few times we have had 1 of the kits released before the seasons end.

Isn't it more to do with the club shop getting renovated? I'm guessing the club want to launch the strip at the reopening of the shop? A picture or a tease would be good though. I did notice that Mark Reynolds and the lassie from the women's team who won POTM were both wearing Macron tracksuits when they were interviewed at the tail end of last week so maybe things aren't too far away?
When is the shop supposed to be completed? I thought they had said it would only be closed for a week or so?

Aye, that's true. Not really waiting on new kits coming out with any anticipation these days, as I don't buy them.
Plus my memory is somewhat tarnished.

I have been reliably informed that the delay is due to the takeover the deal was signed alot later hence the delay.

Out of interest, was it MM who actioned it or is this a completely new thing with MO?
It would be ace if they could launch a new shop and 2 new strips all at the same time. I wonder how much work is being done as the shop was in a decent nick, prior to the new kit manufacturer.

I drove past the shop earlier and it doesn't look like anything has been done. Its still sitting empty with the same fixtures and fittings.

Not sure I believe the talk about the delay due to a late signing of the deal.
I was told by someone working with St Andrew’s University who dealt with all of their equipment that before the takeover was completed ( in October ) that Macron would be doing our kit as well as Dundee’s.
I laughed off the idea but it turned out to be true. How he knew this I don’t know but he was bang on with this.

New kit has just arrived based on an Instagram post I saw screenshotted on Facebook.

Havna been keeping a track on when kits have been available for sale. TBH, I only get the odd ane now (got a cupboard full oe them), but I did get last Seasons Away tap.
The dachters were gonna be getting me ane for Fathers day. Of coorse they were'na available in time. They commented that the Club missed a trick no hae'in the taps for Fathers Day, even 20 taps at 50 quid each is 1000 quid.
Of coorse, the fowk that were gonna beh ane will just beh ane anyweh.

I did notice we revealed last season’s on May 18th, along with Fyvies new deal.
