Fax’s new home kit - courtesy of a brand new kit supplier - is set to be launched at the club’s refitted shop at The Shay on Friday, December 8, the same date as Mr Hardcastle’s book, ‘150 Years Of Blue And White Memories’, hits the shelves.

Damian Clayton, the new CEO at the Panthers, said of the new kit:

“It is an exciting time. We have a new kit supplier and the shop has been refitted. It is being branded up with the new kit supplier to take us onto the next level.

“There will also be a leisure range as well, which will be specific to the Panthers’ brand. We are taking it onto the next level.”

Commercial director Steve Lambert added: “Our sponsorship base is amazingly loyal to us and they have all come back this year. The loyalty has been great.

“We have also had around eight brand new sponsors who have approached the club. We are getting new people in and they’re all very excited too.”

On the launch of the book, which goes all the way back to the club’s origins in 1873 right up until the Panthers’ incredible 1895 Cup triumph at Wembley in August, Lambert said:
