    Can't decide between good pr or cynical fleecing of money for new shirts from skint parents during half term. Thoughts?

    Surely not surprising with Cash Converters splashed across the front?

    i bet sales will improve as the season goes along. winning helps sales in all areas of the club.

    Yeah, because up to the end of September last season we were flying compared to this season so you'd expect the sales this year to be down on last year.<whistle>

    bit torn on thi, bit or a gimick, turnstile money and potentially more shirt sales. However players where there interacting with fans, and develop "family" feel.

    Ultimately the money is going to the club too

    Why the whinging about this? Noone was forced to go. It was a nice bit of PR from the club, showing they ain't that detached from the fans, and yet you lot still ****ing moan.

    Wait, I bet you think you're entitled to be in a team photo without a club shirt on or one from a previous year, right? Grow the **** up and stop whining about stuff that really is just a bit of fun for those that want it.

    Couldn't someone have the sense to arrange the positioning so all the 'blues' spelt something out? - e.g: UTT

    It's a cynical world and I agree that the fleecing the supporters is an issue.....HOWEVER, to redress the balance a little, let me tell you about my youngest.

    He has not had his replica shirt since I paid for one at the beginning of the season. Apparently the suppliers (whether that is the stockists or Adidas themselves I know not) have run out of his size. I have emailed many times and although very apologetic, Tiger Leisure have been able to do nothing about it.
    Just had an email to say that his new shirt is now in and printed and that as an apology Sarah Crawford has got it signed by Nick Barmby and Cam Stewart as compensation for my lad being without his shirt. Nice touch, I thought.



    Anyone interested, it will be on ebay next week !!!! :)

    I'm surprised 550 people bought the trash converters shirt, as for having your photo in the HDM wearing it ! I just had to pass on that one..Have we got the same sponsor next season ?
