man in the middle Posted April 10, 2020 Report Share Posted April 10, 2020 I see that the club has £10 off all playing shirts but that’s it, Many other clubs have around 30% off all items. With City changing to Hummel next season and probably the season is over as far as fans attending games, do most people think that we need to do the same thing ASAP?

Sorry, I’m failing to appreciate the outrage. EDIT: oh and just having a look at other clubs sales, it seems the many of them charge more than we do for them in the first place anyway. Lots more, if you take into account the STH credit that we get as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The space we have now is the most we've had of the three club shops I've known us have. The club were never guaranteed planning permission for anything bigger but interested that you mentioned something going into the new arena build as I never saw any mention of a club shop in any of the walk through videos or plans shared. But it's not just the size that's the problem they have constantly been running out of stock for months, whoever was in charge of stock control should have been sacked a long time ago. Don't get me started on what a poor selection of actual items we have for sale. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't get me started on what a poor selection of actual items we have for sale. Is it? I’d have thought that the previous shop was bigger than the current one. You’re 100% right about the stock tho. It must be Bristol Sports responsibility to ensure decent stock levels and however is in charge of stock levels should be sacked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m sure once the new shop is built, more items will be stocked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sticks 1969 Posted April 11, 2020 Report Share Posted April 11, 2020 The impression I get when I go in there is no one has has a clue . You ask why items are not available and every one just say sorry and we don’t know . The tall chap who I think is in charge is just a glorified shelf filler and when ever you challenge him on why things are available it’s always IT SHOULD BE IN SOON which is of no use to no one . Unless you are under 16 the shop is totally useless with piss poor range and quality, what could you wear out on a Saturday night to your local pub etc ? No decent polo shirts ,sweat shirts, long sleeve shirts? Nothing what so ever. The club get so many things correct but not the shop .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You know that for sure do you? Every time I’ve been in there were very few customers. However.......if you use some common sense it wouldn’t be so difficult to relocate the cafe thereby expanding the floor space of the shop. More space = more stock. I’m pretty sure a location for the cafe could be found somewhere in the SS, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bristol Rob Posted April 11, 2020 Report Share Posted April 11, 2020 All they need to do with the shop is stock one of everything in every size, whack in a few changing room so you can work out what size fits you and do everything online. Make it smaller, and either expand the sports bar or coffee shop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It does well with just normal people visiting it and also workers around the local area etc. I’m not guessing it’s bringing in an insane amount, but imagine it mainly a test run for a larger one when the rest of the works are completed.

I think they hoped the sports bar would be more popular than it was during the day. I’m pretty sure even the pizza people have stopped during the day and they were offering very cheap pizzas.
