whufc will have further information when available regarding the 2008/09 away shirt, with the intention being to relaunch this from Saturday 13 December.

West Ham United this week announced a shirt-sponsorship agreement with the Isle of Man licensed and regulated SBOBET until the end of the 2009/10 season that will also mean increased exposure for the Bobby Moore Fund for Cancer Research UK.

The partnership with the online sports bookmakers will see the SBOBET logo worn by the first team - replacing the squad numbers used since 20 September. The new-look kit will be seen for the first time when West Ham United play Tottenham Hotspur at the Boleyn Ground on Monday 8 December.

The Bobby Moore Fund for Cancer Research UK (Registered Charity No. 1089464) logo is to be carried on all kit worn by the club's academy sides as well as on child replica strips.

now you can see how sponsors on shirts ruins the shirts, despite how great the \"sponsor\" or fund is.

I don\'t disagree. But don\'t retail the thing at £30.

Personally I think its better that just throwing the old ones away, imagine how many they got made with the XL logo just to get binned and then have a load of them made again, total waste and it will be umbro and not West Ham who are doing the \"overlay\" ....\"

Aha. So they\'re stitching patches over old shirts. Please, please, please can someone (with a lot of disposable income) go and buy one of these shirts and send me step-by-step pictures of the patch coming off to reveal XL underneath. If I\'m right this is a new low in marketing.

As for BMF, as I understand it the kids shirts wouldn\'t be able to carry SBOBET because of gambling laws and if Umbro haven\'t made any blank shirts so putting BMF on there was really the only avenue open to them.

I really, really want the shirts on sale now to be entirely newly manufactured. I fear they\'re not.

It looks like Umbro just put a patch over the old XL sign. It looks terrible.

West Ham are definitely forever blowing bubbles!

Up Monaghan United! The Magic Mons!

I thought they\'d missed a trick with the cancer fund logo, but it\'s nice to see it on the shirt. It\'s better than just having a blank kids shirt, more clubs with controversial sponsers should do it.
