Probably on twitter and facebook too, if you can be bothered, which I can't.'"
So they put it on a site that clearly says that it's under construction, which is the reason I and I suspect others don't visit.
And like you, I don't use Facebook or Twitter, the main avenue of communication should be the club website, and if it isn't, at least let people know via e-mail
Somebody, somewhere needs a bloody rocket... it really is farcical

Best £5 I have ever spent
£47.50 for the shambolic effort currently available, superb
I've love to know how many they flog. No doubt the club will be "quietly pleased" with merchandise sales.

I can see the item yes, you could create that design yourself, heck, you could even improve on that design, and you could sell it for £25-£30 on a site such as redbubble or Spreadshirt, for example. Big Graeme did some designs a few years ago that people could buy that were 10x better than the tripe currently on show.
Nearly £50 for such a plain and uninspiring garment is utterly staggering.

That is what you get when you actually employ a proper company to do your merchandise rather than a mickey mouse outfit that your Chief Executive has been pally with in the past.

...like Puma did last year then.....

I understand it Listy, Gus has done something to you and others that makes you feel you need complain about everything the club are trying to do. As I say, I am not praising anything the club do, but whilst I complain (regularly) about the lack of marketing and fans at games, you are whining about something that you currently have no idea, if it will work or not. I never launched a pre-emptive strike and always gave the club chances....even the fiasco that was the viral video and the Oyster Card holders was given time to fail before I launched....and even then, when the club had wasted about 20 grand on that tripe, I was berrated by your current grumpy old man partner, PP for being negative.......seriously guys, did Gus Napalm your granny's house or something?
You don't like the ST offer.....but maybe it is doing OK. You don't like the shirt or the colours, but until they are on sale in the club shop, nobody knows how well they will sell and now you are moaning about a hoodie that essentially is a replica of last years but with a different badge and manufacturer. To make your point, you compare the prices to the fire sale at the Union shop...a fact in itself that shows how bad things were/are at the club with regard to merchandise.
I repeat, I have no interest in the hoodies, fleeces or any other such stuff at present....what I want is a club that cuts its cloth accordingly and can afford to spend money on the important stuff. If you walk into the shop on opening match day and have a feel of the quality of the goods and don't like them, then don't buy them.....but stop moaning for the sake of it.

| You cannot dispute anything I say. Your retort every time is that I am moaning for the sake of it and I should pipe down and just "see what happens". I make a perfectly reasonable post about the merchandise and you launch into a rant about how I apparently don't like Gus Mackay.
Why don't we just close the forum if we aren't allowed to have positive or negative reactions to what they are doing, and simple use this as a news base? I think its fairly critical what those on here think or what is going on as we are some of the only people who have somehow fallen into supporting a professional Rugby League side in the south, a fairly exclusive club. And if the powers that be read some of the reactions on here, then maybe something positive will get done.
I'd also appreciate it if you stopped making up my own apparent opinions. I never said that I "didn't like" the season ticket offer. I have also never commented on the clubs colours, only the woeful shirt design, in which a significant proportion of users concurred upon.
And I made my point by comparing the merchandise on offer in the Leeds club shop which is of high quality and doesn't take a genius to design (which you ignored), but I know you like to selectively read my posts and make things up, so I suppose it'll continue.

I've no intention of getting involved in your current spat with gf, but your occasional comparisons of London Broncos with Leeds Rhinos seem to me to be statements of the obvious v [sizeBig Club[/size. Yes they do things better and bigger than we do. Why? Because they're much better resourced and more experienced. Of course we'd like things different and its fair enough to say so forcefully, but not through pointless comparisons. I guess that there may be Rhinos fans who compare their club unfavourably with Manchester United - easy and the reason for the differences is just the same.

| A picture of the mechandise rlhererl on the players.
Basically our hoody seems to be a rlrehashrl from one of MKK's other big clients (Winchmore Hill CC) but in more boring colours. Using the blue for wavy bit would have at least make the gear more interesting.

If we were comparing something that involved investing significant resources, I would agree. A marketing campaign for example.

Everything on there is nicer than what we offer. Yet according to your logic, everything that London Broncos offer should be lots bigger than better than Maidstone Rugby Union club.

| I couldn't care less who makes our shirt/training wear and to be fair the designs look okay when they're on the players in the pic on the club site but the MKK site makes them look appaling.

Quite right too, and you're the first one to have the guts to say so.

I know they don't have a millionaire owner nor get any money from Sky Sports on a yearly basis. Its cheaper to get a pint there though (just).
Leeds have been around 10 years longer.
