from a marketing perspective.
They will be selling few now and nothing will shift shirts that have Robinson or Bradford on the back, other than marking them so far down that it makes no difference.
If they launched new uni's now, they'd sell a boat load to loyal fans. And with the amount of publicity they are getting they'd pick up new fans for sure..
Then they'd double dip in 2 years with the publicity around the move.
I highly doubt they are holding back now because they think they will sell more in 2-years. That would be business folly.
There is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so.
