It is a little but significant issue as it's supposed to be shared, no way would it happen the other way round, and to be fair to James Brammer, he always comes across as as helpful as he can in the dealings i've had with him in in the past - maybe not always a satisfactory outcome but i guess that's due to issues above him.

Personally i would love our own little store either in town or at the stadium but i can't see it happening anytime.

We've just announced sponsorship with an opticians in the town centre. Maybe a small display and a sales assistant within there in the runup to the season start. Nothing permanent, just to maximise sales for a short period.

I remember years ago raising the issue of the store in terms of shop floor space. The reason was based on aggregate crowds and because Town have higher averages and play more games at the stadium the space was fair.

I was in the shop a couple of days ago getting some Giants gear and whilst I was paying for them a guy approached me (wearing the compulsory Town top) and started spouting about me entering a draw they were running in aid of the Wendyball lot. When I said, politely, ''Sorry pal, not for Town' he looked like someone had just clouted him with a lump hammer - a real picture!

Merch getting better I instigated some giants claret and gold vests 2seasons ago.before kooga told us what we have now its over way round...im liking the training tee,s polo ok could be better the main is all c&g!! Shop did well last year,Suzanne in shop trying her best but town have onus but the more we buy better for club
