DARLINGTON FOOTBALL CLUB ANNOUNCES 2015-16 KIT

More than 1,150 fans have voted for their preferred choice of home playing kit for the 2015-16 season (more than the average home gate this season!).

The chosen design has also met with the approval of the directors, Avec and Thommo the kit man! It combines an old-style collar, retains the Darlington black hoop design and will be easily identifiable as the shirt associated with the season that will see the Club return to Darlington at Blackwell Meadows.

Speaking on behalf of Avec Sport, Helen Inness, National Sales manager, said “We love the chosen jersey and are sure that it will be well received by both Darlington FC players and fans. We look forward to seeing the full Avec kit in action at the start of next season”.

Kit man Andrew 'Thommo' Thompson added, “Avec have always produced quality playing kit and the management team, coaches and the lads will be pleased to be playing in the home kit chosen by the fans next season. It will be good to see the fans wearing the new replica shirts, as always our 12th man!”

The most popular fan choice attracted 58% of the poll - 50% more than its closest rival which also featured the traditional Darlington hoops.

The winner of the draw for free match entry and full hospitality package for 2 people for one of our remaining matches this season is long-time Quakers fan Wayne Raper, who said, ”I really appreciate this gesture by the Club and I’m looking forward to taking up my hospitality prize at a forthcoming game”.
