End of
four season contract with Macron.
I’m wondering whether it might be extended, especially with the “In Bloom” flower shirt being worn this summer. That said, the original OUFC/Macron announcement did state “until the summer of 2026”, so this could simply be the 'last hurrah'.
When the team returned from the Indonesian tour, TW mentioned having important meetings with potential partners out there. I may be reading too much into it, but it caught my attention. 'Mills', an Indonesian sportswear manufacturer based in Jakarta, already supply Tranmere, so there’s a possible link there??
Could be nothing, but I wouldn’t be surprised if we see something a bit different from the usual merry-go-round of kit suppliers.
BAXI is an interesting one. They extended the sponsorship until the end of the 26/27 season. Would they want to continue with a League One club? Could they be playing a long-game, and hope to be part of the infrastructure installed in the new stadium?
We've struggeled this year with secondary sponsorship, back-of-shirt and back-of-shorts. Rumours were the club got too greedy. Will they lower prices to get 'something' or be stubborn and price themselves out of the market again.
Interesting times! (For kit nerds)
