    Bournemouth chairman Jeff Mostyn has confirmed that their replica shirts will not be available till their fourth game of the Premier League season.
    Speaking to BBC Radio Solent's Fans Forum, Mostyn explained that the delay was caused because of the 150-day lead time needed to get the shirts manufactured and in store.

    </figure>"The latest update is that we will have them prior to the Leicester game [on 29th August], but that is subject to change," Mostyn said. "No-one is more frustrated than us. Our chief executive is ripping his hair out about it.
    "It's got good enough and it's not a Premier League style. We now have to act like a Premier League club on and off the pitch. They know from a legal standpoint - with the letters that have been exchanged - that they will never get away with this charade again."

    Makes you wonder how they managed to organise themselves enough to get promoted. Absolutely ridiculous and, with their low crowds, it would be highly likely that every single supporter would be wearing one at their first fixture, if only they could get one. New shirt, Prem league logo on it, massive trick missed by their marketing people.

    Tin pot club due for a fall back down the leagues soon?
