Away Strip

Tonight will see us playing in our new gold shirts. There were plenty being worn by fans on saturday and I must admit they look good. Hope it's a lucky strip.

Tried to buy one on Tuesday and all sold out with no real idea when new ones will be in... Also not yet available to buy online, and i wanted it for my holiday in 12 days.

Two of my mates went into the club shop the same night but were unable to get what they wanted, that's probably £150 of income lost. Moving in the right direction but the shop is still pretty abysmal in stock and range.

BLK are abysmal.
Ordered the Gold shirt from them last thursday.
Took my money and it said on the website that release date was 10th August and would be delivered 48hrs from then.
1 week later still no shirt, still listed as pre order on their website and had no replies to emails enquiring about its whereabouts or estimated delivery date

As I mentioned to you yesterday Ste, BLK are expecting a delivery imminently, and online sales will then resume. We're told everything has been held up in customs, but things should start arriving soon.

There is a range of polo shirts etc on the way too, and a new order of shirts for the shop has been made as well. :)

I appreciate it's not ideal, but I think on this occasion the club have done everything possible to get things sorted, and factors outside of our control have caused the delays.

Can I just ask why the polos have Barrow AFC written on the back?

I do tend to agree re the polos, would have been better without the back writing but are actually not too bad.

Nobody has written a different name on the back of a players' shirt. They did exist to by in the first place. The sizings are broadly correct. We could be attaining the dizzy heights of average e in terms of the shop this year- from the baseline of the last decade that's at least a bit better.

Gold strips have done very well. I guess quite hard to predict sales. But if a relatively small club wants a bespoke kit, we will always have this sort of nonsense IMO.

:sentoff:
This thread is about the gold third shirt. I said the blue and white ones they "unveiled" in the town centre in pre season looked cheap and shit. I still stand by that, they did. The actual blue and white replicas we recieved are a bit better quality than those demos, still look a bit shit mind. Makes you wonder why we bothered having an unveiling of sub standard demo products at all, probably just a rush to tie into the BIDs football festival.

The gold ones hadn't been announced or unveiled when I posted that, I quite like them (save for the blue detail don't think it needed that, would have been better black or white, but they're not bad at all).

That alright with you? Better rescind that red card :lol:
