Chairman Statement: Official 26/27 Kit

Statement from Geoff Thompson

Chairman, South Shields FC 

We are sorry, we got it very wrong and we are fixing it. 

A new season is a time where you can get excited to collect your Season Ticket and purchase our brand-new Home & Away shirts to wear at pre-season games and upcoming league games. Sadly, that experience was not what it should have been and we are truly sorry.

26/27 Kit

We will make the TECHNICAL version of our 26/27 Home & Away shirts available to supporters. This kit will come at a one time discounted price of £55 by way of an apology.

We can't fix it straight away though. We have placed a new order with Hummel, but it will take several weeks to arrive. You can however pre-order the TECHNICAL kit in the Club Shop (Monday to Friday 12pm-4pm) and on the Club's online store in due course.

Supporters will be able to purchase the REPLICA version at a reduced price of £50 from Monday in the Club Shop (pre-order), with the plan to make it available on the online store next week at the reduced price.

Supporters who have already purchased the REPLICA version and wish to keep it will therefore be eligible for a £5 voucher to use in the Club shop. The Club Shop will accept returns of unworn REPLICA shirts if you want to exchange it.

Season Tickets

Season Ticket holders who haven't received their season tickets will be notified personally when it is available to collect.

Once again we know we have fallen short and will ensure it doesn’t happen again.

 I hope to see you all back at Mariners Park soon.

Thank you.

Geoff Thompson

Chairman, South Shields FC
