Rovers going to need a new shirt supplier???

[normal rules]

Wigan among other teams have had Vandanel pull out of kit deal and there .are rumors that the kit supplier may go into administration. Maybe another shirt next season again??

Well since we're getting a new shirt sponsor anyway I assume we'll be getting a new shirt anyway. If Vandanel are to pull out of the kit deal as well then obviously we'll be getting a new kit.

Be nice if we got a bit more interesting away kit, the black one is lame although to be fair we've mainly used the excellent blue & white one as our reverse strip this season anyway.

There is a statement on Vandanel's website that its a different part of the company holdings which is struggling, not the kit business.

Since that statement was made several clubs have pulled out of their deals with Vandanel, including Wigan.

Yes, it was made about 6 weeks ago, so maybe there is more to this than first appears.

I guess we will have to wait and see what develops

Rob, you seem to have more links to the club than most on here. Do you know if the problems with Vandanel, if they have indeed pulled out, will hit the club in terms of finances?
