Looks like the club shop is moving...

Prospect Centre is doing quite well these days , i remember it being a ghost walk a few years ago , Im sure the hum drum shoppery in St Stephens has helped drum up the footfall these days i can't be arsed to walk up to whitefriargate ( i almost managed it on thursday to buy a bag of coffee from McCoys)

Yep. Good move for the club shop. Another long running gripe been sorted out.

It is a good move, would have been better if the shop was actually on the High Street, but a good move all the same.
The shop might actually take some money if it sold anything with 'Hull City' on it. Until it does I will not be darkening its doors.

Fans thinking they matter, club being a part of the community, etc.

The quote from the Prospect Centre manager on that story has now been corrected to say Hull City.

Surely they didn't deliberately try to alter his quote and then got pulled up on it when he started getting stick online for something he never said? Silly bastards.

Typical attitude from most shop workers sadly.
When I find one that is engaging I am taken aback.
They would have looked after you better if you text them or faeces book messaged them.

Depends where you go, in my experience the ones forced to do work experience by the job centre tend not to give a **** or younger ones in general. Haven't worked in retail for a while but going back to my time at the Virgin Megastore in the 90's you would get people coming in asking you to recommend Kurt Russell movies to them and stuff like that, and a few other oddbods, druggies and drunks so it was hard to be friendly to every single customer at times

It's a decent move James, but don't get carried away, it's a fairly old shopping centre, it really doesn't have an ethos.

Would of been better at St Stephens, however Prospect Centre isn't a bad compromise.

Princes Quay has gone downhill recently, shops closing/moving left, right and centre. The only positives in there is Vue cinema, Primark, Nandos and the new bowling/lazer quest centre that has just opened. If they all (apart from Nandos, as there is already one in there) moved to Prospect Centre or St Stephens it would make my life much easier.

Club shops don't open in the most prime retail sites, it's a complete waste of money and there aren't any empty units in there anyway.

Some poor sod was so excited to get to the new shop, this is what happened

Hearing a man has been knocked down outside the Prospect Centre but is sitting up and talking.

I was in that CEX shop today, a few doors down from where the new Hull Tigers shop will be, and the ethos in there seems to be a mixture of theft, drug abuse & inbreeding.

So there is an ethos.

Club Ambassador Dean Windass to officially open the Club's new retail outlet in Prospect Shopping Centre....

Our brand new Tiger Leisure store in Hull’s Prospect Shopping Centre will officially open this coming Saturday (27th June).

Club Ambassador Dean Windass will be on hand to cut the ribbon and declare the new store open and will be meeting fans between 10am and noon.

And to celebrate the launch of our new retail space, our new Umbro training wear range for 2015/16 will be available to buy for the first time.

Fans will find the new Tiger Leisure located close to the shopping centre’s Brook Street entrance, opposite Boots.

Located in the retail centre of Hull and in close proximity to the city’s main transport interchange, the new store is ideally situated for supporters eager to get their hands on official Tigers merchandise. And with new 2015/16 replica kits due for release in the not too distant future, it’s set to be a busy few weeks as we settle into our new home.

We look forward to welcoming you into our new store in the very near future.

Liverpool and Everton seem to do well in Liverpool one. The Everton store is even called Everton 2.

Liverpool one - Everton two. I remember when our marketing team used to be inventive.

The new shop looks really bland, most club shops do, it's an advert for the club, I don't know why football clubs don't treat their stores like any other retailer would.

If it wasn't for club loyalty, these bland shopfits with mediocre products wouldn't last five minutes, very few clubs take full advantage of their retail opportunities.
