Portland Bill Posted August 4, 2007 Report Share Posted August 4, 2007 Went in the City shop today and took an adult SMALL City away shirt to the counter and ( believed ) purchased it. Just got home and found that instead of the small shirt i handed over to the shop girl ( who looked about as interested in her job as i am with Rovers ) i have a MEDIUM in a sealed bag .How they can take a small off me and put a medium in the bag is beyond me, i am going on holiday tuesday so i now have to make a 70 mile round trip to the City shop on monday all because of there incompetence.

Dannycidered03 Posted August 4, 2007 Report Share Posted August 4, 2007 your own fault, its your job to by the right shirt, not the staffsStick back to your name mate, welshred, you don't realise it's the cashire's fault as there mean to check for all size issue's i.e when you buy a pair of shoe's from Ravel, they'll check you got to size 10's ect...Ring the club and get them to pay for your fuel mate, they try it in my shop in Suits You in the mallRegardsDannycidered03 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dannycidered03 Posted August 4, 2007 Report Share Posted August 4, 2007 i doubt itI think Kids come's before football taffy and proud father would tell you that, Portland have a good holiday mate! your not the only one missing out on saturdays game against QPR, It's my uncle's wedding and I'm off to Turkey on the 12th for 3 weeks so I'm missing a few. Family holidays can only happen in august as School's don't sanction time off for kids now in term time, you need to go thornbury and get permission Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Portland Bill Posted August 4, 2007 Author Report Share Posted August 4, 2007 I can't work out how you they swap the shirts without you noticing.Was David Blaine serving you?!What happens is.....you take the shirt you want to the counter( the shirt is on a hanger) you then wait while ( while you PRESUME) they put the shirt in a bag. What ACTUALLY happens ( it seems) is they take the shirt you give them and get the same size shirt from a pile they have behind the counter (the shirt is in a plastic bag) and give you the CORRECT size shirt.Unfortunatly the person who served me doesnt seem to notice that an "S"is different from an "M". Perhaps it was Blaine...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
