Fanatics - New Club Shop

[Bell4]

I know you're a kit fan but FIFTY shirts seems a bit excessive!

They’re for his Avatars

And we wonder why we went down - Cliff Calvert

Anyone know if they're planning on selling the away shirt in adult sizes without the MIDNITE sponsor?

The kids shirts are sponsor-free, I'm guessing that's because it's a gambling business.

It'd certainly look better without it. Plus I don't want to be a walking billboard for such companies.

Anyone know if there's going to be a line of Genocidal Zionist t shirts and apparel?

They’re stuck in the Straits of Hormuz…

Hopefully history doesnt repeat itself with that shirt

My hunch is not. Wolves and boro also have midnite and neither website offers sponsorless option
Shame as it'd sell in droves
Also shame as the printing has led to marking on pretty much all the shirts (checked in club shop today) plus many of them have wonky printing
So yeah, sponsorless version please

My shirt hasn't any marks on it ,no wonky printing it's very very good. Seems that haters hate again .who looks at all the shirts in the shop ? And when you buy you get one that's bagged and not been touched

I bought a Flamengo shirt when i was in Brazil a couple of years back and the shirts on the hangers in the Club shops in the mall didn't have any sponsors on them. When you pay for the shirt they applied all the sponsors, player name and numbers - if you wanted them. Most people walking around didn't have all the sponsors on their shirts.

Theyve literally all got a rectangle mark around the sponsor. Its more obvious on the away, but i checked homes and its same. Im not paying 65 quid for errea quality when its adidas

Don't buy one then simple ,mines great and worth the 65 quid

They weren’t the marks I was talking about. Some had faint red marks. Hard to spot but once you do it’s easy to see. It wasn’t on all the shirt but some and the club shop said they’re aware of it.

The marks you refer to - they will drop out after the first wash I’m almost certain.

 

[Keen Blade]

You will have seen by now that we have signed up with Fanatics to run the club shop.

Just a bit of information that i've found out.

• We no longer offer a click and collect online.
• There are 2 shipping methods:
  • Standard at £4.95
  • Priority at £6.95
  • These prices seem to be blanket pricing - i added 50 shirts to my cart and costs didn't change

I couldn't be arsed to pay £6.95 for something i needed tomorrow, so just drove down. When there the item I wanted wasn't available in my size, despite the online shop showing 6 left...

I asked why we are showing 6 in stock if none are available.

The lady said that everything is operated by fanatics now and everything is drop shipped by them, so the online quantity has nothing to do with the club shop... worth baring in mind.

Finally, I asked if we were getting any long-sleeved home shirts and the reply was - "we're not sure, we haven't been told"

Thought i'd share

Why do we contract everything out ?

Well I for one look at the shirts before parting with my money. Loads had wonky sponsors, United crest not aligned properly within the sash or with the trefoil or both. And quite a few had faint red marks.

It’s not hating on my part, It’s more just advising people who are planning on buying one to double check the one they get.

When you buy one you take one from the hangers and the checkout staff give you one thats in a sealed bag so you really can't check them .mines fine ,if you look long and hard enough you will always find slight flaws in anything material.

You think it’s wrong to use a major online platform?

My away shirt arrived this morning and I've not noticed any issues bar some less than great stitching on the sleeve that doesnt bother me.

However, Stevie Wonder must have put the Avec yellow and purple retro shirt together. The collars and little V underneath are utterly laughable.

Quality Assurance non-existent.

Depends on what the benefit is to the club, Adidas already take most of the shirt money, is having another corporate middleman really necessary?

While I was on there another bloke pointed out the red marks. I hadn't seen those personally but many of them definitely had wonky sponsor patch. If im gonna wear club merch I want it to look good not tinpot

I told them at the counter I wanted the one I’d chosen and not one from the box in a sealed bag.

What did they say?

In the same way its wrong to contract out catering to a major market leader- yes.

When you're low end customer, you get low end service. Ask any Hibee if theve improved things.

I do when quality is compromised, as it invariably is when something is outsourced.

Compass is a huge company, and has become huge because everything begins and ends with the bottom line.

Outsourcing is what you do when you want to wash your hands of any responsibility towards quality and your employees.

Outsourcing, it’s the new way…
