I agree with the away shirt idea. I think it is a good idea to do it if it generated income and it is a good gift but..... the way they just stuck the names on the bottom of the srirt was messy. Would be better having the names faded into the blue hoops so they dont stick out like a sore thumb

I thought the names looked good IMHO.

I agree and my son loved having his name on.Dont know how many
took it on but say 200 at £25 is 5k which is excellent revenue idea,
especially with dwindling crowds.

I agree with this I thought the writing looking as if it was stamped on cheapened the shirt maybe if it was woven in but that would possibly be more expensive ,however I thought it was a good idea .

I had my name on this years shirt as a gift from my friend which was great. I would love to do it again but wouldn't if it was on the away shirt as I can't afford to buy both shirts and would much rather have the home shirt.

Woven - that would be itch as hell if it had lots of names.

Slightly o/t onthe hhx1 site a "new" royal polo shirt was advertised at £27-99,this has now changed and is only available if you purchase a "bundle" the polo@£25,Home replicashirt@£15& a beanie£10 total £45
I dont wear replica shirts,have a beanie so will not bother,a lost sale

it was a good fundraiser and if was so naff why are other teams on about doing it next season.

Would you like a better reason than because its easy money and you are almost guaranteed a shirt sale for each name?

Like has been said its a good idea in principal just the design maybe wasnt as well presented as it could have been.

I really wasn't a fan of the shirt. Brought one before the last game as there were heavily discounted and figured as it had my name on it I really should.

Batley have had names on away shirts for a few years. It's more part of the design so isn't as noticeable. But looks ok

Personally I didn't like the names on the shirts, looked like they'd been added as an afterthought,

A brilliant idea, a good fund raiser, My Grandson and at least 3 of his fellow junior season ticket holders have their names on the shirt.
Hopefully they will continue to do so, keep the shirts over the years and therefore their link to our Great Club.
Grandson wears his dad's 1987 Cup Final trackie top on occasions.
I still have my old style woolen hooped shirt with No 8 on it.



I think one point about the names being on the away shirt was valid. Not many people can afford to buy 2 shirts plus £25 for their name.
Why the away shirt anyway.
Keep it on the Blue and White.

Im sure the club will sort you out with what you require if you give them a ring!

I thought the concept was a great fund-raiser, ridiculously over-priced though. £40 odd for the shirt & a £25 add on was too greedy. I got two, one as a gift for my old dad & the usual home shirt purchase for myself, which incidently i haven't even worn yet !
Bring the costs down & i'd consider it, failing that, there's no chance of my money.

Tenner is a better option, hopefully get more people on board, more names should equal more shirt sales, it's got to be a balance. At 25 quid I gave it a miss last year but would chuck a tenner in.

Why not offer a raffle ticket to everyone who puts their name on the shirt. Meaning that potentially someone is getting the shirt when it's launched for just a tenner?

Ambitious going for 1K names but fair do`s if they manage it. Not sure how the shirt will look though with all them names on it.

plenty of xmas pressies of names on shirt. hope blue n white hoops with lots of names on it.

Make it as easy as possible for people to 'sign up' by getting it on the Online Store too!

I do think though to get people to part with cash for this and season tickets etc we need to create some excitement....

Let's forget trickling the odd signing through between now and Xmas. If the contracts are signed let's announce everyone and stop messing around. Fans get excited by hearing the ambition of their club. In my opinion we need to do lots more work on that front... I seem to remember KH saying in one if the RL rags weeks ago that he'd got a couple if significant signatures already... Well let's hear it.

Our communication at times beggars belief in what should be a pinnacle year for the club after 10 years in this league. Let's see how serious we are as top 2 material and the fans will back them!!

Completely agree with this post Chris. If interest levels increase so will the revenue of the club.

when is the shop open during the week as got a voucher that runs out end of month. plus want a few names on shirt.

Intersting www.halifaxcourier.co.uk/sport/h ... -1-6105043 Reduced the price to £10. Last year 200 at £25 equaled £5000. Fax hope by reducing the price they will get more signatures. So 500 needed to match last year, Blimey will there be room for the No. Seriously, I think £10 is about right, so to get my moneys worth I have changed my name.

Not a fan of the names on the home shirt and wont buy one, as in my opinion, just looks tacky and cheap. I do understand why its done and does earn the club some extra cash. However I prefer such gimmicks are only done on the away shirt. The home shirt should be simply blue and white hoops that is based loosely on the traditions of the home shirt. Wacky ideas and something different should be left for the away shirt in my opinion.

One thing I would buy and think others would is a Cotton Blue and white traditional shirt with the original badge on: I understand that many people want to buy the latest match shirt but I am of the opinion many would buy a cotton traditional shirt as well.
