Selling home and away kits with a 30% discount = good.

Marketing it as 30% because it's 30 years since we won the Premier League = tacky and lazy.

Is this a new low for the Marketeers at Ewood?

 

150% off for the anniversary then ? 😁

So as always run out of stock for months during the season, flogging excess off for a discount in April 

I’m all up for improving all aspects of administration at Ewood, but in fairness this is well-rehearsed…they order an initial amount…re-order in time for Christmas…discount what remains at Easter.

It’s informed guesswork as to what will sell & in what quantities. Short of taking pre-orders only, what else can a retailer do? 

Listen to this for a full explanation…

They ran out of stock in August (again) for months, that isn’t good stock management to me - and not replicated at other clubs.

I was thinking more of a 150% surcharge.😄

If any of the stooges or their acolytes read this I'm joking.

They did increase the stock by 20% and added buying some stock coming in before Christmas time. 

There is some stock left of all 3 shirts and in most sizes. Hence why we got a decrease in price. 

The club would have to based stock required o previous sales. The Christmas stock order will have to placed soon for the 25/26 shirts

They run out of shirts every August, poor stock management, simple as that.

Because they always think small instead of big, possibly because that's how they run every aspect of the club. No ambition.

That's why they tell India no we don't need money look at us we finish x points off the play offs without it and produce 20 million pound sales.

Now madame, about that bonus......

There is still stock of all the home, away and third shirts/kits plus training gear in most sizes available in the club shop so they haven't thought small this season

It's just another example of how thick they are.

Why not take pre orders in late June/July, guage the stock order off that?

Just another really simple thing these cretins can't manage.

The stock levels are about right 

There is still shirts and kits of all 3 kits in most sizes left in the club shop. Not loads but a few. 

Pre order for Christmas in June/July?

Stock levels have been completely wrong if you have none in stock from August to November but have a load of excess shirts you have to discount in April.

Or sales have been very good over the season and having a few shirts left over in the club is no big thing is it Matty? 

How many shirts/kits have we sold over a full season

Most sizes available if you are small or 3XL....
