The thing is, it's still not too late to recover some of the lost sales. Why don't the club open the shop tomorrow and push it with a little cross-promotion? I'm sure an announcement could be made on t'fishy site along the lines of "Stanley shop open tomorrow, Saturday - come along and spend your Christmas vouchers and money - lots of unrepeatable bargains - get them before they're gone - don't miss our fantastic new fleeces and hooded tops PLUS spend a minimum of £50 and get 10% off food and drinks in the Crown up to 5pm Saturday. So drop in, pick up your merchandise, then relax with a drink and meal as you watch the score updates from Mansfield."
Sadly, nothing like this will happen and yet another golden opportunity will slip by. Oh well, it was just a thought...
