Coppello Posted July 23, 2019 Report Share Posted July 23, 2019 Sorry if it's been covered elsewhere but do we know if the shop will be open on Saturday? I wouldn't mind having a look at the new merchandise before the Palace game. If not, they've buggered up a bit there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ExiledAjax Posted July 23, 2019 Report Share Posted July 23, 2019 Open training sessions are very interesting, it's great to see the players in action outside of the usual match day rituals and games. I'd encourage anyone who can make it (given the time most will be working) to go along. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DolmanDave Posted July 23, 2019 Report Share Posted July 23, 2019 I pre ordered the shirts and potentionally now picking it up from club shop after general release. As I'm working this Thursday-Weds long days, so no chance of popping into club shop. Not complaining at all, just frantically trying to work out if any of my mates could pick it up on my behalf and no doubt a few of the merchandise too as they're there Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Geoff Posted July 23, 2019 Report Share Posted July 23, 2019 I pre ordered my shirt fully expecting to be able to pick it up when I am in Bristol this Wed / Thurs. What is the point of pre ordering if they are not available before general sale. I certainly won't fall for that one again. (Won't be able to collect now until QPR game (which is after my holiday in the States where I wanted to take it and wear it). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newarkred Posted July 23, 2019 Report Share Posted July 23, 2019 The whole pre order and ships being closed has been a terrible thing from the club. With two weeks till the season starts and not a single piece of merchandise able to be bought is shocking. With the new badge etc I would have thought you’d want it out worn ASAP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Meh Posted July 23, 2019 Report Share Posted July 23, 2019 In terms of pre order shirts it is not good for people who can’t get them but this has worked out perfect for me. I did not bother, instead asking the family for money for my recent birthday in the presumed knowledge that when I leave for hols next Thursday it will.be without a new shirt. But working 5 mins from the gate and still working until next Wednesday has changed my fortunes for the better !! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It rather kills the momentum from the launch doesn't it. Why bother plastering the city with posters and projecting Robins onto the suspension bridge if its going to be 3 months until you can actually get the masses wearing the thing around town?

Even if we're not practicing tactical elements they get a chance to look at our players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChippenhamRed Posted July 23, 2019 Report Share Posted July 23, 2019 It’s a nice idea....but 10-12 on a Tuesday!?! Surely that’s a complete non-starter for the vast majority of fans. Why not do it in the evening? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because the players don't train in the evening, given how regulated everything is now you don't change a days schedule as it would effect the recovery for the next days training especially a few days before a game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bar BS3 Posted July 23, 2019 Report Share Posted July 23, 2019 The things some people complain about..! At this rate, we are going to receive season tickets prior to the first game, will be able to get next season’s kits before next season and we can go and watch an open training session with the kids, if we can and want too. Shocking behaviour from the club..! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCFC@Frome Posted July 24, 2019 Report Share Posted July 24, 2019 For those asking about shirts ordered on pre sale. The club shop are saying that there is no date yet for the shirt to be released. Could make Tuesday very interesting for fans and staff alike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cityred2000 Posted July 24, 2019 Report Share Posted July 24, 2019 Anyone think that City are hoping that Leeds reps will attend and therefore are going to throw them off by training using a certain tactical approach in the open session and then using a completely different one on the Sunday? Yes, very slow Wednesday afternoon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BetterRedthanBlue Posted July 24, 2019 Report Share Posted July 24, 2019 Leeds think we're doing this to spite them over the spygate scandal of last season... It's not to actually involve the fans, get the players used to the playing surface at Ashton Gate and is something other teams do as well (admittedly not as close to the season starting)... Nope we're doing this to spite them. Do Leeds fans know the world doesn't revolve around them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robson Posted July 25, 2019 Report Share Posted July 25, 2019 City supporters are advised that all 2019/20 pre-orders placed for the club’s replica kit have been distributed. Fans should receive their order by postal service tomorrow (Friday). Meanwhile, supporters who have opted for collection will be able to collect their orders from a pop-up shop at Ashton Gate Stadium tomorrow (Friday, July 26th, 9am-5pm). The newly-refurbished Bristol Sport Store will open on Saturday, July 27th (10am) for the pre-season fixture with Crystal Palace and will stock both home, away and goalkeeper kits along with a selection of leisurewear. Replica kit will also be available to buy online from Saturday, July 27th(10am). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
