Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

Im trying not too Lee is a great guy [i do refer in brackets lol] & poor bloke carrys the can for Eric, Eric wants people to put money into the club - club shop is one way the ordinary folk can do that & Eric doesn't see it at all, how much potential money has been lost thro various means because he over looks it as not important:psad:

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

Chaps i'm not having a pop at you to be honest i admire your passion for the club, it's very evident that you all have some great idea's it's a pity the club dont listen to you.

Have a happy new year.

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

No pops or offence taken, good point u made too, its a pity the club wont take it on board but thats the way it goes i suppose. All i wanted to do for last few days is spend me vouchers & dosh at the club LOL.

Happy new year to you G.U.T.O.G :D:D:D:D

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

Finally got to the shop & it was OPEN :D:D thanks southernred for the heckle of it being shut LOL!!

NO fleeces left *boo hoo* only for little stanleyites left, not many of my size in some stuff left, but i did get somethings, a tshirt, Ricky Tomilinson dvd & a bear, quite a few people popped in shop & nattered with Lee for a bit whom is going to try & get some more fleeces in before next december heheheehe - even picked up junior ticket for tommoz very organised he was even seeling programmes a day early:D:D

Hopefully they may improve the shop merchandise, the hoodies were nice better than i thought, tho the hoodie bit put me off would been nice as a sweatshirt again too big & too little sizes left.

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

Indeed. And I'm still waiting for a reply to the email I sent enquiring when I might receive my order... Ho-hum...

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

I think the example of the Burnley store they had is misguided some what, because after an initial success, it became poorly run and did not carry the same offers as the club shop. Also the vacinity is closer to the club than accrington and people could park for free at the club too, So it was always going to be doomed.

Accrington however is a different kettle of fish altogether. If the council could help them with cheap rent or a % of revenue deal, Imagine we could buy our tickets there, we could get our merchandise there, book for away travel all in one place. I know Lee is great at what he does and would make a great store manager there too. Normal opening hours on top. Oh the possibilities. I sincerely hope I see it in my days. It would be a cracking way of bridging the gap and having a presence in town. Could even have player signings.. best stop before I get carried away.

On Stanley On

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

A classic example of one of the club's major flaws. Here's someone from the other end of the country who is sufficiently interested in us to order merchandise. He posted on this thread on 29/12 that he hadn't received his order. Club personnel do come on this forum, so I'm sure someone must have seen his post. So wouldn't you have thought that they'd immediately jump on it and either sort the guy's order out or reassure him that it was on its way? Obviously, this hasn't happened, he's had to email again and he's STILL been ignored. Can the club not comprehend that incidents like this will not only deter the customer from repeat purchases, but will put other potential customers off spending money with the club?

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

Just to pump a little good news, tho not exactly club shop. I've FINALLY GOT MY FLEECE!! YAYYY! at Ossie mills, not expecting to find any left nor even noticed them till OH pointed em out, 1 adults one left & just my size an all [xmas & birthday rolled into one] good job i didnt get a medium would of been massive on me, this one a perfect fit & last one & now mine LOL!!

So good one Ossie Mills & Lee...........u dont need to reserve me one now, me happy:D

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

Since posting above earlier, I have now had an email reply.

(Just thought I'd mention it to be fair to the store.)

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

Oh good at long last eventually lol, shame complaining here got butts moving, so are u expecting your order soon ??

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

if they dont get that side of things in order PDQ, it will be hard to keep existing fans (who live a distance away), never mind atract new ones!:(

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

Good!...hope you get your stuff soon! It's just a pity it had to come to this.

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

One club official who come's on here does try to help best he can, only last week SR was trying to help with various problems, i for one would welcome one of the directors to take up the post Director of communication, surely this would be welcomed by the fans and take pressure off the club allowing the small number of staff to concentrate on club buisness.

Bury FC have a direct e mail address to the directors that on top of a communication manager.

Eric needs to ask his fellow directors to help i know they will as they are a dedicated bunch of people with lots of knowledge.

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

What you like if you has read my first post on page one you could have had it over a week ago;)

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

on the 11th December on the fishy site

Also lending a hand is Adam Cottier, who many will know from his work at BBC Radio Lancashire. Adam has also been involved with Accrington Stanley through the media for several seasons and joins us as we look at ways to improve communication from the club. He will look after our website and the production of the match day programme, as well as developing new ways in which we can reach our supporters.

I know its part time but ...

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

Maaca,

Adam is a superb person and an even better reporter.

BUT how much time & how many posts on here since his appointment?:(

I really want him to take on the role, dress for the occasion and pass on the news; for for an unknown reason NOTHING!!!

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

Reaching Supporters:confused:

Would a Supporter not be more ideally placed:)

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

Another plus for the club shop - they have got some new merchandise in casual wear, selection of fleece scarfs various plain colours & ladies bob hats - pink, pink/white - even Andy Todd liked the pink/white bob hats, he tried on my daughters hat & asked if he could borrow it for training :rofl38:, nice an all Lee did a great trade after match LOL!! Gloves are soon to follow too.

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

are they online yet?

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

This fleecy jacket thingy (which I would love to get for our winter), is that the one being sported by SPARKIE (and Emily) IMG_0673.jpg

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

Erm no, neither is the hoodie, fleece & tshirts:(

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

No, lol, i was wearing mine today as was a few & others had the hoodies [im tempted if it had no hood] - rave reviews.

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

All this new gear sounds great. Pity I didn't have time to look at it yesterday, as I had to top my beer levels up before the bus came. Any chance of putting the items in the on-line store, chaps?

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

No?...oh well, never mind, you're better off not putting it on-line. After all, you might sell some and make some money for the club! :rolleyes:

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

:rofl38: nice to the point statement there Mr H, like the sig im an ordinary fan - me too:D Funny how over recent weeks/months about the merchandise, as soon as i hear owt i come on here to let you all know anyway so u know whats missing off the online store, again its just supply to limited amounts of stock each time rather than a continuum like shirt sales which they have plenty in stock both home & away ones also displayed online, hence why the rest isn't:rolleyes:

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

Thanks for letting us know about the new lines, SM, it's just a pity the club can't let us know with a little news flash on t'fishy site. I realise that they have to be cautious with new lines - after all, they don't want to be left with piles of unsold stock. But could they not put them on the on-line store anyway? If demand exceeded supply, they could always order some more. Just think of poor old Kiwi John freezing his rocks off in NZ without his fleece! :D

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

Aso a number of times i wanted to pop in the crown amd its been closed at 15.00

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

The poor fleece was probably walking round his back garden before somebody embroidered it with a Stanley badge :)

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

Hardly the same - most pubs shut at 3 so they can be ready to re-open at 7 :confused:

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

Hehehehehe i always try, shame it isn't avail online as it should they'd sell more so then stock can be continuous, poor kiwi HAHAHHA, yep them fleeces are quick thick & warm - just a shame the rest of me was cold - till i got the hat later hehehe:D

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

Ha ha, that conjures up a really funny picture :D

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

if im right crown opens at 5 on weekdays, unsure if they open during day

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

I don't know of any pubs that still shut at 3pm other than the Crown! Ten years ago maybe because it was the law wasn't it? If you never have anyone in then it is pointless being open but most pubs that I know of are open straight through.

12pm til 3pm for food then re-open at 5pm for teatime rush

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

Just shows hows long it is since I frequented the local pubs (except on match day of course) :)

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

Just for you Mr H it's the new pink hat, Mrs Bagpuss was unavailable for modelling and it wouldn't fit the teddy but I know it would be just the thing for you to wear next home game.

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

Not quite me I feel, but thanks anyway, Baggy!

In all seriousness, if you can take a shot and post it on site, then why can't the club? :confused:

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

Because I can be arsed to do it.:rolleyes:

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

True point wynonie & baggy, it doesn't take much, tho thanks baggy for reminding me i ended up with the slightly unfashionable version of the plain pink one humph:(

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

Do they do it in blue and white, for boys? :rolleyes:

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

try the other liverpool club :rofl38:

I think the standard red or black bob hat were more blokey anyway:confused:

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

Also in club colours, unless pink is the future. :)

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

DIY oggy, one old Everton hat + one old Stanley shirt, cut the badge off the shirt and stick it on your hat, easy.

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

:rofl38: stanleys bright the futures ............................Pink ....err no then:D

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

pink WAS last seasons shirt with the washing fiasco!

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

:rofl38: baggy have u been watching too much blue peter:eek::D

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

Actually Oggy i would of preferred the pastel blue & white over the pink anyway hehehehe:D

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

I love Blue Peter or should I say Zoe (Babe).
I have been wearing the old Stanley Asda shirt for work and its torn so I'm going to cut the badge off and get Mrs B to sew on my black hat so why not oggy also.

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

Awwww least one thing for perving is you learnt how to be creative :rofl38: poor Mrs B you didnt get her a sewing kit for xmas did u??? Hehehehehhe:D

Failing that you could always nick mullys shirts to re-use they get pulled apart:rolleyes::D

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

noticed paul mullins shirt didnt have a sponsor on it on saturday with a few of the other players looks like the washers stuck on a high temperature:D:D

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

That's very kind of Mrs. B, but I'm sure she's very busy looking after you. ;)

(Pink for girls, getting women to sew; sometimes Accrington feels like living in a time warp. :()

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

Mrs B looks good in a pink babydoll I do not, Mrs B is good at sewing I am not, end of.:p

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

:rofl38: well that answers that one then:rolleyes::D hehehe

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

To my knowledge there's only been one national team man enough to play in Pink, well, Pink and Primrose hoops, actually. ;)
(Clue, they beat England 4-1 wearing this strip.)

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

That would be the Rosebery colours and I don't think there will be many, if any, alive who were at the game. :)

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

Is there something strange about girls wearing Pink or Sewing?

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

New bits now online:)

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

I bumped into c'monstanley in town & he said there were no pinky hats left in shop & wondered if they were getting some more hehehe:D

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

I Tried:confused:

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

You would think they would get some yellow ones in for him :)

Actually I might try and source some of those blow up bananas and get the Stanley badge on :rofl38:

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

All i said to him was when i asked Lee when they came in if it was a regular thing, tho he is expecting some more possiibly but dont know when, but will get some more:confused::D

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

Now he's love that immensely, me & HR were on about getting him some *jokingly* during half time, would suit him down to the ground that would:D

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

Wasn't HUNGARY was it?? ( though summit tells me that was 6-3 or there abouts...):confused:

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

Was it the Jocks?

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

Certainly was, worn 10 times, last worn in 1951, time for a comeback? :)

Like deeayess said the Rosebery colours (the primrose and pink racing colours of racehorse owner Archibald Philip Primrose, Lord Rosebery.)

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

Maybe you could pin the badge onto the banana. :rolleyes:

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

Just to recap (as I can't be arsed going back through all these pages,) Is there SOMEWHERE on the web that has a picture of this ye beaut fleecy jacket thingy??????

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

no coz we've sold out apparently, if you ask stanleymad nicely she may take a piccy of hers and show it to you in a 'look what you could've won' kinda way!!!

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

hehehe:p me or the fleece?? :eek:

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

Saw a few bods wearing 'em today. They look really smart and I quite fancy one myself. Wonder if they'll be able to source any more from a new supplier?

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
 

Dear STANLEY MAD,

Re: Lack of nouse for sales
