Site Supporter MickyD Posted December 25, 2010 Site Supporter Share Posted December 25, 2010 Write to the club with the suggestion that they cater for kids rather than adults as it's kids who are more likely to wear their merchandise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm also not sure that the people who read it have the clout to alter the way things are done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

no balls Posted December 25, 2010 Share Posted December 25, 2010 Thing is if the club sold loads of different childrens merchandise we could well be reading a thread by someone saying the club was nothing but a media money making machine robbing parents of their hard earned.

peebles Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 Last time I looked on their website it was pretty shite too. Very little choice. I was after a training t shirt and there was nowt available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
juewanderer Posted December 26, 2010 Share Posted December 26, 2010 (edited) Last time I looked on their website it was pretty shite too. Very little choice. I was after a training t shirt and there was nowt available. You're better to ring the club store..i wanted a junior away kit for my lad and it said online that there are none available ..i rang the store and they did infact have them in stock. I received it in time for Christmas too. Edited December 26, 2010 by Alien3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fruitbat69 Posted December 27, 2010 Share Posted December 27, 2010 Last time I looked on their website it was pretty shite too. Very little choice. I was after a training t shirt and there was nowt available. Your absolutely right about them training tops. This season I got one when they came out in August. Last season I went to get one in September and they sold out and was told unlikely they were to get any more in and in the end they didn't. Think it is a joke that a Prem Club runs out of training gear one month into a season and a fan hasn't the opportunity to buy any. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Site Supporter HomerJay Posted December 28, 2010 Site Supporter Share Posted December 28, 2010 The club sell fuck all from the club shop, one of the lowest in the league iirc So I'm guessing they don't really want to invest in too much stock Not saying what they're doing is right but still.

That suprises me as it is always rammed on matchday and the queues are usually long, in saying that they should take advice from retail experts, be interesting to know if they have any information on sales patterns and sales per item, this would quickly identify winning lines and ensure that these lines were always in stock and orders in the pipeline.

anewman Posted December 28, 2010 Author Share Posted December 28, 2010 FFS folk will complain about owt. I ordered a take away last night, I asked for a hot jalfrezi and a very mild korma for my lad. When it came the korma was spicier than the jalfrezi ffs, just can't trust that megson cunt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter MickyD Posted December 28, 2010 Site Supporter Share Posted December 28, 2010 If an item sells out it is probably because it was popular. If it was popular then the manager of the BWFC shop, if he/she knows what he/she's doing, will probably ask the suppliers for more. Will the shop ask for more of a popular item? Probably not!

Probably not! or perhaps because in comparative terms BWFC sells fuck all merchandise the stuff is only made on short runs, so once it's sold then it's sold.

Exiled Girl Posted December 28, 2010 Share Posted December 28, 2010 they sell bwfc cups with names on them, yup you guessed it, they dont have cups with girls names I saw those today. There can't be that many boys called Ivan Klasnic who turn up wanting a mug with their name on it. However, if they do, they'll be in luck, there's loads of mugs with that name on.

Breightmet Boy Posted December 29, 2010 Share Posted December 29, 2010 Perhaps if they rebrand the store, call it the 'Happy Shop' and sell old programmes maybe. It is crap for kids stuff though, if I worked there I'd tour other club shops for ideas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
