Yes which is what I was referring too. My original comment was based on the camera phone picture of a picture in the paper. Surely you can see the difference in quality?

| Quote: uglybug "Having looked again at both the on-line store and the available products over the last few years, I remain convinced that Wigan RL have no idea on how to market the club's merchandise. How many will sell and in what sizes? I dont know and I'm sure the club are clueless. 600 shirts only and at least 8 sizes? So, if like me you try to ring up what chances of a Large shirt; next to zero. Well thats another £10 towards charity, plus charity aid they wont receive. Why oh why dont they allow pre-payment and pre ordering, then they will know how many and what sizes they need to produce. Result, the fans get what they want, in the sizes they want them and theres no shirts left to put in the sale box. Maximise costs and keep the fans happy? Not a chance!'"
I have been contacted by the marketing department at the club who have taken notice of the post I made above. I now stand corrected in and wanted to point out to others that I accept the club have worked very hard in getting the shirts approved through the team sponsors, having them produced and shipped and that the total amount is based of the amount and sizes of the shirts sold for Seans testamonial.
I'm also a little shocked, but heartened, that the club staff take notice of what fans write on these forums.

I thought your initial comments were pretty harsh tbh but I also thought you did have a point. I think because of the profile that Joining Jack has had recently the demand for these shirts will be higher than they were for the SoL ones, and I think a lot of people will be disappointed tomorrow, especially those who are going to attempt phonecalls. I don't know whether some sort of pre-order or pledge system would have worked better so they knew exactly how many to get made and in which sizes but I also appreciate it must have been difficult to get a one off run sorted out in a fairly short amount of time.

May try on the phone.

| Seems like a lot of people are going to miss out, hearing that people are buying large amounts, a friend saw one person buying 10?? I mean it's all for a great cause and aslong as the money is going to charity then that's great it just seems like a lot of people are going to be disappointed. going off the demand I wouldn't be surprised to see them popping up on ebay either, although so long as the moneys going back to the cause and not in someones pocket I've no problem with that.

No chance.
I'm not convinced there were taking calls tbh but could be wrong.

| It's half past 8, I've been trying to get through every 5 secs for 3 hours and guess what, it's still engaged. If I wanted to waste 3 hours of my life, I could have watched 2 Stains games.

| Meant to stop selling them at 7.30pm mate.
I'm currently on the train to London for Wembley so I've got my girlfriend on it first thing.

| I'd be very surprised if they didn't all go tonight, the queue was massive! I'd be interested to know if anyone did manage to get one over the phone because I'm sure there were more than enough people there to buy them all, and a lot of people were getting a few at a time.

Not everyone wants one though and they'll probably end up with a sh*t load that they can't sell. You can't just ask ISC to make 1 shirt. I imagine that the minimum will be somewhere in the 1000 region and unless they feel they can shift all 1000 they won't do it.
That is of course before you get to the point that it's no longer a one-off shirt if you produce more than one batch
