The quality of the last few years has been shocking. The quality and stitching of the replica shirts was woeful. Sizes can be changed but hopefully the quality will be much better now. Prices will stay about the same I presume which is fine as long as there is some value for money.

Just wonder if they are going to rename the shop ie a bit like the new shirts let the supporters pick a name.
Here goes for starters....... " R kit" , "fax kit" or "Halicats" for the kids. But I am sure someone can come up with better. ..........I suppose you could get a sponsor to name it and they can call it whatever they want then for x £££! Actually the sponsorship isn't a bad idea .....every little helps!'"
Ah sorry for the mix up I were talking about Ian Croad. We are lucky in that sense that we have had and have a number of individuals who dig deep when it has come to supporting the club, without them the club would not be where it is today. Unfortunately to push on to the next level of even challenging the top 2 its going to mean a big increase in crowds or an individual who can afford to drop a couple of million in ala Beaumont.

Thanks for your glowing reference Rach but you should perhaps be addressing your issues with the club and not slating one of the most successful global brands around.
First of all sizes go up to 9XL and as errea have been able to look after fans of clubs from Wigan, London Broncos, Workington, Oldham, Hunslet, Dewsbury and Swinton I think 9XL must be big enough.
Secondly if your Chairman had not stopped paying his bills after one month of a three year deal causing the kit supplier buysportskitPRO to have to go to the RFL and have the clubs invoiced paid directly from central funding perhaps there would have been more choice.It was Gary Fawcett who didnt pay the bills, it was Gary Fawcett who designed the awful kits and it was Gary Fawcett who decided to switch to Kappa because he thought he could make more money using a cheaper brand.
'Clowns' is such a fun term but on this occasion, and given the number of Soccer and Rugby League clubs being supplied by errea, I would imagine this 'issue' lies more with you and Keighley Cougars than errea or buysportskitPRO

It's too easy for someone to give a one sided version of events to try and destroy someones reputation. Anyone with half a brain can see errea supply tons of clubs in every division of Soccer as well as more Professional Rugby League Clubs in England than any other brand so for her to suggest that just because she cannot find clothes to fit her the brand is awful and run by 'Clowns' is a little bit worrying

| Yes, I think the clubs statement is professional and very clear where the bulk of our appreciation should go to. Personally for me Steeley is built for the Presidents role and its centainly long overdue that he relinquished the pressures of day to day running the club.

| Right Monkey Lover lets get a couple of things straight to start with -
You obviously work out that my home town club is the Cougars - However I've barely set foot inside the gates of Cougar Park for the past two seasons due to a family member playing in expansion teams down south so to begin with , I personally as a pt supporter couldnt't give a stuff whatever your arguments are with the Keighley Board and to bring those issues into an argument over product quality on a fans forum with an individual, who has chosen to be critical that you do not know personally is petty in the extreme and without a doubt smacks of a company that fails to acknowledge ' that the customer is always right '.....
As for sizing ...fine you do up to a 9XL ..well bully for you ...all I can say is the past two seasons due to the clubs my lad has played for I've had hoodies /replicas / polos from one particular company all at my usual size of 2XL all perfectly fitting , (I've 90 plus shirts at home prob 90% of em are 2XL size ) all ordered by mail order for a what I would deam a reasonable price ..my one Cougar Shirt from you were a 5XL and a 4XL hoodie , neither of which anywhere near fit ...why the hell can you just not provide goods that are the size they should be ...why as a usual 2xl should I be ordering a 6Xl or more ...easy question ?

| Each , Please can the pair of you take your argument elsewhere. Hx have made an agreement and we will soon find out for ourselves if the supplier is hitting the mark and getting it right for the customers. It's a bit like you have had a bad pint in the Wetherspoons somewhere else in the country yet come to The Percy Shaw in Hx to complain.

So let's get this straight, you want both errea and Kappa to restructure their European sizing and empty their whole warehouses to be filled with new product in UK sizing just because you cannot fit into a 2XL?
As I have pointed out both brands that Cougars have used in the last two seasons supply Soccer, Union and League clubs Worldwide, many of them playing in the top or Elite divisions with hundreds of thousands of fans between them.
I am sure they will listen to you but I don't hold out much hope that the companies will decide to change their sizing policy just because 'Rach from Yorkshire' cant fit in a 2XL. Anyway, you can email them direct, their websites have contact emails on.

I find shirts from Next are too tight around the tops of my arms but I have never felt the need to find their twitter page and tell them as it is perfectly obvious thousands of other people seem to fit into them just fine
