I think that perhaps the supposed big news from today is that we've signed a 5 year kit deal with Umbro which is rumoured to be worth £35 mil. Personally, I don't mind what brand our kit is, so long as it's blue it's fine by me.

35 mill would be over the 5 years which is 7 million a year. we apparently get 10 from nike a year! Who would make that deal?Why Oh Why Everton

I was told that we only received £4 mil. every year from Nike.

Ed, how have we signed a new kit deal when we were supposed to get 10 million over 3 years from Nike starting 2012/2013 season, looks like at least doubling our money though but not exactly huge sums

{Ed025's Note - i dont know to be honest degs, i tend not to get involved in money matters mate as it courts controversy..

Well that's enough to pay Baines and Pienaar! No big deal really should be getting more than that!

We don't get a penny from the biggest sportswear manufacturer on the planet. The previous deal was £32m over 10 years from kitbag regardless of how much merchandise is sold. Compare this with the RS £25m minimum pet season from warrior, Arsenal £150m over 5 years with Puma, Spurs £10m per season from under armour. No wonder we're getting left behind, commercially we're a joke.

When does the kitbag deal end

I thought it still had 5 years to run ray and have seen no concrete evidence suggesting we're getting £35m from umbro. As far as I'm aware we're still tied in to kitbag unless we've somehow managed to negotiate a deal where we pay to terminate the contract.
