bengalcub Posted August 5, 2018 Report Share Posted August 5, 2018 Seriously the clubshop is a joke , stood in the snake like ridiculous que for 30 mins yesterday with the boy to get his shirt , the whole layout is truly awful and really needs to be sorted out , we have a lovely ground with ample space but cram the worst clubshop in I’ve ever seen I honestly believe the old one was a better layout at least you could que in a straight line so everyone can see the end of the que , city must lose money on impulse buys , is there any plans to change the layout , improve or move the club shop?

Bob Taylor is GOD Posted August 5, 2018 Report Share Posted August 5, 2018 Someone I know queued for 35mins yesterday. The only reason it wasn't longer, is because several people gave up and put their purchases back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobBobSuperBob Posted August 5, 2018 Report Share Posted August 5, 2018 I’m amazed , at this time of season that they don’t utilise a marquee or similar behind the south stand , especially for first two or three Home games selling just say the replica Shirts only For speed / efficiency relieving pressure on the shop for things like t shirts , training tops etc etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TBW Posted August 5, 2018 Report Share Posted August 5, 2018 As soon as the stadium was built we all said the shop is too small for the development but it's there now so not much we can really do but put up with it for now. Only thing we can do as the stadium potentially develops more in future is create a new club shop and repurpose the current one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree but I guess the6 would argue that for %90 of time the shop space is more than adequate (FWIW I think it’s dire for a revamped £50m stadium when we are trying to maximise our income I would have thought an additional space that could be utilised for peak periods / days would be a sensible idea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree that the shop is totally inadequate given it now sells rugby and basketball merch as well. The best thing all round would be to build a big shop on the wickes site when its cleared, and use the existing one for extra sports bar seating.

Meh Posted August 5, 2018 Report Share Posted August 5, 2018 The whole amount of people in that area with fans village etc is stupid. One day the club will work out they have to shut half the car park on match days - make that the main fans village area and this will open up the walkways and club shop. Still be enough spaces left for disabled etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brizzol Posted August 5, 2018 Report Share Posted August 5, 2018 If only there was a way to purchase online or on non-match days when the shop isn't unusually busy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I totally agree with you Neo I think it would be ideal I avoid that area like the plague tbh Im just pointing out it’s unlikely to happen , certainly in the current set up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TonyTonyTony Posted August 5, 2018 Report Share Posted August 5, 2018 Went in there earlier today - shop was empty. I actually thought it was closed on Sunday’s ? bloke said they had installed new card scanners to apply the rewards to your account starting tomorrow. I presume this will apply in the stadium too Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
