Whatever happened to Wang computers?

Think they went bust, I used to have to use a Wang terminal at Bradford & Bingley. The lady who showed me how to use it looked at me quizically when I said 'Wang computers, brilliant!'

Connected into the mainframe and was over 20 years old but nothing else could do the job

Wigsy is correct, the Wang Computers hooped jersey was for 88/89 only. The classic Bukta V jersey was 89/90.

Our deal with Kooga doesn't run out till 2012 IIRC.

Some manufacturers may do that, but the club pretty much admitted at the fans forum that they have minimal input on the shirt design and it's pretty much entirely down to Kooga, except for the club making sure it adheres to Super League rules.

Just because that's how other clubs and manufacturers do it, does not mean that's the same for everyone.

This info came straight from the board. You don't tend to get a better source.

Got a close mate who works for a RL kit supplier. He's shown me a few kits that clubs have rejected and gone with really bad designs!

By the way that retro kit reminds me of that massive full back with a mullet you had in the late 80s. Was his name wilkinson?

so if our deal with kooga runs till 2012 wonder what she ment last sunday on a whole new supplier?

ANYONE know ?

not unheard of for a deal to be ended early. I seem to recall we had issues with late delivery both this year and last. imagine thats suitable grounds to get out of contract early if we so wished. few people have speculated that a sponsor may be underwriting the season ticket deal in some form, maybe its a new shirt sponsor hoping to make its money back through much higher shirt sales?

Classic sports of Australia please, or anyone that will make us a cotton replica shirt like Leeds and Hull have had recently.
