What better way to announce the re-launch of www.starfootballclub.com than with the unveiling of the club's new kit for the forthcoming season.  Provided for the club by its new sponsors, Fasthosts, it will be the first time that Star FC has worn blue as its first choice strip and the first time that the club has adopted an all blue kit since the 2001-02 season. 

Emblazoned with the Fasthosts logo across the chest, the kit is supplied by Errea, who have not only provided most of the Star FC clubwear that has been available for the last few seasons but who, also, sponsor the Gloucestershire Northern Senior League, which is the competition that has kept the First team occupied throughout the course of the last 4 Springs, Winters and Autumns. 

In order to illustrate the new kit for an audience eager to experience not only the delights of the new-look web site but, also, the sartorial re-awakening in which the whole club will engage when the 2010-11 season kicks off, club Secretary Matt Harvey was furnished with an almost unlimited budget to recruit top class models who would be paragons of athletic and sporting prowess at their best, to purvey the epitome of both the image and the ethos of the club through the medium of the internet.  Unfortunately, such budget as was available was swiftly converted into alcoholic beverages and Matt had to make do with Tim Jones, Rick Redfearn and Jon Moss instead.
