    RE: I suggested selling shits in the club shop in the east stand

    I'm not surprised they didn't take your suggestion forward! Though it would make a quirky gift. Maybe each player could do one, have it sculptured and then autograph it!

    The shop is tiny as well. I would have thought it would have been made bigger when the stand was first built. Was in our club shop before the Forest away game and they had run out of the number 7.

    Nothing of any use to anyone at all

    Unless you're a football hooligan as they do a lovely set of darts which quite frankly defies any kind of logic.

    This might be just me being stupid again but I would have thought that it would make a lot more sense to sell COATS and/or jumers/sweaters etc considering it is situated in a mostly uncovered stand where everybody who is basically trapped in it will get wet.

    I'm not sure if i'm the only one who thinks this but I've always been of the opinion that the largely unused 'betting' shop is in too large an area and should be swapped with the club shop. The desk could be at the back with the latest odds on the walls and maybe a nice big sign above the door giving people a clue what the hell the desk is actually for, at the moment it looks like a bfc customer service desk or something owned by easy jet.

    Get the wall at the front of the new club shop built up (existing betting place) with an opening for people to get in obviously, put some shelving in around the sides and a counter with a proper till/chip and pin installed and theyre set up to sell a wide range of products that are ideal for people on matchdays, coats, kits, umbrella's, waterproofs, programmes, scarves, hats, gloves, jumpers, tshirts etc. Not just bloody white plastic pens and pencil sharpners with toby tyke on them sold by an old (but friendly) bloke who puts the money into a little tin when he takes it off you. It's 2009 not 1981

    they are not cheap to be honest and the club really should be looking more to a full EPOS stock control system with it built in.

    It's easily done dreamboy

    Those pesky letters take up so much room and you know they're past their sell by date after a week so they can only stock 7 of each letter.

    At least they've now installed a giant TV, well giant for don rowing anyway, not for anyone under 50

    You are right, its a laughing stock

    never been addressed.

    Wouldn't consider buying any of the crap on offer, even were it realistically priced.

    Aye I mean it's not like they would think they need many of squad number 7 in the current climate.
