I have no idea about the financial side of thinks and i know that Connacht Rugby is a business but i hope that they have shown some of the loyalty that they expect from their supporters, personally i think their association with Elvery's has worked well. The new sponsor looks like a complete kick in the teeth especially coming after last years dropping of Rugbytech.

At least there is some good news for st holders, 10% off all purchases from 1 July.

I wonder if everlys will remain as minor sponsors? If not then there will more money to be made up.

When we moved from BOI to Mazda there was no jersey change, shirts usually change every two years.

I would like to think this is good news with the 4 year deal but will wait to see the details of the financials :whistle:

Another season and ANOTHER NEW JERSEY, bit of a hit for the families.

Also, a bit of a bummer and let down for the players, free trainers and tracksuits now instead of discount on new car. :sick:

We had two new jerseys last year, next years should (better!) be the same

I think that the idea is to emphasise Life, Style and Sports as three things that "Lifestyle Sports" believe in. Or some other marketing nonsense like that.

Anyway I will reserve judgement until I see a jersey, but it's great that it's a four year deal. Gives some stability.

Yes, it does appear that their logo is just the name of the company in capitals, underlined and left justified. Not very inspiring but I'm sure some graphic designer got a few quid for coming up with it.

Great that they have a 4 year deal signed, but you'd wonder how it rates financially in comparison to the one they had with Mazda.

Also, is it just me or does the "LIFE STYLE SPORTS" logo on the front of the tops the players are wearing look gammy (couldn't think of a better word)?

I presume this will mean Elverys won't stock our Jersey? I can't see them selling something with a competitors name across the front?

I know they have not always been the best about stocking gear, but they still have some busy stores, like the one in the aviva.

Announced as Life Style

Can't see too much money in that deal, even though, it is a 4 year deal

If you go into the Elvery's Rugby store opposite Stephen Green they can check every other Elvery's store in the country and see if any of their other branches has one. Hope that helps.

Well lads,
I'm pulling my hair out trying to get a size small away jersey. I've looked on almost every website and only found it once in England for about €70 and postage. I haven't had a chance to look in shops because I'm in college up in Dublin. Any idea where I'd get my hands on one?
