I am minded that I wore the new 2013/14 season jersey to the 2013 may final.
Yes the first two Canterbury kits were revealed at the end of the season and worn in the playoffs. So when we lost to Harlequins in 2012 we wore the bib kit, then the following season when we won the Prem last we wore the 13/14 kit in the semifinal and final.

There's a competition to win a signed shirt for fathers day. Entries close tomorrow, so I reckon that would be the earliest but more likely Monday next week.

Well they have only just advertised flogging off the old stock, so I wouldn't imagine they will unveil the new kit this week as it gives them very little time to shift the old. It does still say June for the new kit reveal though.

That’s been running for weeks. I suspect it’ll still run til the day before the contract ends.

I think so. I suspect the club is contractually obliged to do so until the day Fanatics are shown the door!

Worth noting the players have returned to training in Kukri gear.

Suggests contract will have to run to June 30th with no early movement?
Goooooodeeeeeyyyyy!

Would suspect ,irrespective of circumstances,the dates are set in stone so to speak.

Not too long before we all get to see the new kit, but just keeping the guessing game going...
I don't know how long they have been there, but the Club's twitter feed currently incorporates the following: 'Club first', 'tough' 'passionate' 'driven'.
Following GM's hint about the new shirts incorporating something a little different to reflect the Club's values, what are the odds on these words appearing somewhere on the new kit?

A bit like Sarries plastering their 'values' around the ground?

Well - it would certainly put a new slant on things!

I would prefer us to only wear the change strip when we actually have to rather than automatically when playing away.
Maybe keep that for 2 years, change home strip every season? They must research the sales numbers on changing strips every season, if you keep a strip for 2 seasons do you sell more as a better value purchase?
To win is not as important as playing with style!

I think they probably sell more than enough of the alternate shirt to make it worth their while changing it annually.
