Let me get this straight; your defence of a replica shirt that is badly sized is that there has been a rise in obesity in Yorkshire; therefore, the BoD of WTW have, in an extraordinary act of foresight and sensitivity, made a concious decision to stealthily supersize this seasons replica shirt, to allow for the expanding waistline of the target audience, whilst sparing their blushes at having to actually order a massive, tent-like garment?
You're either a genius or a mentalist; I opt for the latter.

I am simply pointing out the player shirts would not look good on the majority of Wakefield's overweight population, which is represented in a significant amount of supporters. Indeed the lycra march shirts only look good on very few people.
I am not throwing out insults at people, specifically, What is the point in an organisation purchasing a product to sell that is not going to look good on its consumer.
The shop know at WTW know their customers, there aint that many of them! They know what is needed (no doubt a medium sized shirt comment is imminent), the shirt may well be mis-sized, in all likelihood the manufacturers fault. As was last years debarcle with the neck size These are produced not at Belled Vue, in all likelihood in the Middle East. Therefore Q/C is difficult when shirts are produced annually and sponsors are not signed up until the latter part of the season at the earliest, the shirt has to be passed by RFL and then ordered and in the shop for xmas.
Easy to criticise something when you do not know the full process

So what your saying is that the shirt they advertised was deliberately changed without making anyone aware till after theyd ordered because the people in the shop knew that nobody would want that and the fans wouldnt look very good in that shirt? Your right it seems some clearly dont know the process

| Not at all, was it advertised as the new playing shirt or the new supporters shirt. I do actually know a little of the process on the shirt

No, you get lambasted when you say stupid things; throwing a hissy fit when you realise that you can't defend the indefensible is, of course, your prerogative.

That would be buffoons, not bafoons; hope that helps.

| I think this thread has done it's time.
Any further issues with the shirt - please start a new thread - and let's stick to the shirt rather than name calling please!
