| And the magic shirts?? What a joke we run there...
Pre orders.. So don't get a chance to try one on or see it. Then when they eventually come in they don't have enough sizes so you couldn't actually buy one of you wanted to!!

Tbh i dont go looking at other shirts. The only one ive seen and touched (yak) is the rovers one and its made of tissue paper compared to ours which has plenty of weight to it. The Prescott away shirt is a great shirt imo
Looks wise im not a fan of the mgic shirt and afaik these are the last Lee Richardson designed shirts so we'll see how things fair next season with completly new designs and possibly a new manufacturer

I can't give you exact figures but I'll tell you that I have always bought all 3. So there around £150 lost. I know at least 5 other people that feel exactly the same, so that's another £750.
So £900 in my circle of FC fans friends.
I have seen many people complaining about it and I spoke to the guy in advantage sport who said that he amazed how much business he's doing on NRL gear because Hull fans are coming in complaining about how bad FC's gear is that they're buying NRL gear.
I'd be pretty confident of saying £1000s in lost revenue. We are already selling out shirts off with massive discounts within a couple of months of the season starting... Our shirts have gone downhill year on year since AP took over.
It's more painful that it's our 150th year. We should have made a proper shirt that people are proud of that would last for years it as usual most won't see the season out!!!'"
So to be clear, you're saying overall shirt sales are down this year? I've bought three over the last four seasons, but bought both this year, first time I've ever done that.

Are you for real?
Based on a sample of six people you claim Hull are losing thousands of pounds? You've no idea how many people have bought shirts this season but didn't last season. As if the bloke in Advantage Sports is going to say his stock is poorer quality that a rival shop.
I've bought two shirts this year. I only got the home last season and in 2013 I didn't buy any (didn't like the Vs).

I was in the shop last weekend. Nothing at all wrong with the quality of the merchandise in there. The replica shirts are par for the course, and the training gear is very good - my wife bought two training tops. Some good offers as well.

Training tops are excellent. Never bought one before but pretty smart and really good for the gym.

Is this on topic? You're like the red and white clown from Northampton talking bollox about cleaning windowsills But undecided. Paid for four tickets and not missed a game so far including pre season friendlies.

How on earth you can criticise pearson is beyond me.If some billionaire come along with no connection or knowledge of the game along wanting to buy ,would we turn him away because he is not a "rugby man"? yes he has made mistakes through listening to advice from "Rugby men"In any sport you need luck and for Fc thats something we have not had I just hope that Pearson takes all this crap on the chin or it could spell the end because I cannot see anyone coming in knowing the abuse they are likely to get'"
Who did he listen to when deciding to sack Gentle well before he actually sacked him?

| Quote: Kosh "I wouldn't pay too much attention to Bumpy.
On your last point - do you seriously believe that anyone interested in buying the club would pay the tiniest bit of attention to the assorted ramblings posted on an internet message board? Or that Pearson even reads it?'"
If I was the owner or coach under fire at Hull Fc I would be looking at what supporters were saying.
Whether Pearson actually reads the messages himself I wouldn't know but you can bet someone at the club will be looking and passing the general comments on.

| Careful what you wish for, you may just get it
I can think of one person who by buying FC for a knock down price could achieve almost over night what he desires.......
