Huddersfield Town reveal real home kit after Paddy Power controversy

Huddersfield Town have confirmed an initial launch of their new 2019-20 strip that prominently featured betting brand Paddy Power was a marketing stunt.

The Championship side have since revealed their actual new home kit, which does not feature a sponsor's logo.

The Football Association contacted Huddersfield on Wednesday after the club released their kit with an Umbro design featuring the name of the gambling company in a bold sash across the front of their shirts.

Huddersfield's managing director, Sean Jarvis, said the kit, worn in a pre-season friendly against Rochdale earlier this week, was a "really modern twist on how we feature the famous Paddy Power logo".
