    I think its very typical of the marketing in the club shop.........

    ................very amateur..............more like a charity than a business

    I'd like to think we had more class than that

    Obviously not

    Appalling

    Like stepping back into the 60's.
    But not in a stylish retro way. Surely we have more class than that.
    If DRFC and SWFC did it we'd laugh ourselves silly.

    Both Teams Are Above Us.......

    so releasing a t shirt based on four matches is laughable.

    Whoever thought of that idea

    It will come back to haunt us. Noticed the initial link contained a 'enlarge your willy pill' advert that has now disappeared from the page. Must have realised it was a bit daring and removed it. :D :D :D

    will we ever shake off an image of Dingles with tat like this

    £10 fecking quid for a white t shirt with 4 pints on it...look great wearing that in Chennels supping a 1p pint...

    Another PR masterstroke feeding the stereotype of inbred piss artists...

    PC If your reading this please withdraw the T shirts

    I really think the supporters trust shoul have a word

    I mean, the club could easily source decent quality, not embarassing clothing for fans, that they would be proud to wear. The choice/ variety is shocking.

    You only have to look at the stuff that is being produced "unofficially" (no names), to see what can be done...... Having said that, if I ran a t shirt printing business, I'd be approaching the club to see if I could work together to kit Reds fans out in some decent stuff for a change.............

    typical

    First off - should it be such a celebration that we've beaten donny and wednesday? I know we're quietly chuffed to be doing well against our neighbours, but I'd rather treat it as business as usual, rather than the reason to print a bloody T-****.

    Second - if we're going to do a t-shirt, can we do it like a commercial enterprise, and not like children in bloody need?

    Our club shop is *****.

    Getting away from personal opinion

    Shouldn't the picture be of shot glasses with doubles in them? The slogan "Make Mine A Double Double" makes no sense when accompanied by pictures of pints.

    I'll do the same - isn't this just the type of thing that will go down a storm with the Chav's of Barnsley as opposed to the white collar internet users of this board?

    But yeah shot glasses would have been better....
