No brains. They haven't got the printing machine to do the names and numbers until the end of next week .
Whoever runs the club superstore should be sacked, it's just embaressing, year after year and they never get it right.
If you can't do it properly on the shirt launch day, DON'T BLOODY DO IT!!
Get Faye in there printing some shirts next week and earn his money!

The people down there are friendly enough but then when you see kids shorts are priced at £18 each, and I have 2 boys, you think poke it up your arse until you get your act together. . . . I won't be holding my breath!
The boys finished their 1st week at the community scheme. That is run very professionally and the coaches deserve much praise. I drove straight from that today to the club shop and it's just depressingly familiar and now bloody boring/annoying.
It was only the fact I had 2 young kids giving me the sad eyes that I bought them the tops.
It will never change down there.
I presume Michael Rea also chose the design of the kit.
Cynical moi? lol
It *is*a constant cock up.
I could bore you sh*tless with the hassle I've had over the past 3 seasons. I even rang Peter Varney's PA and left a message with my compaints 2 years back and didnt get a reply (that was after spending over £100 in the shop).
So its like everything else down there you just give up and lose the will to live.
And I emphasis the point of how *professional* the community scheme is run.
They couldnt be further apart.
I mean what a cock up
but from a business point of view rothko wouldn't you ensure the name and numbering machine was working because the fee they do charge for the service is a massive and i mean massive money earner.I dont say this to start a argument but the reveue lost would be quite considerable and i would imagine the profit from this day alone would have paid most of the shop assitants wages for the entire month.I know what a mark up they make so from a business point of view I would expect Mr Waggott to ask the question when the opportunity to make a lot of money on our kit launch day why was the machine not working or why wasnt there any numbers or letters.
I've said this before I'm willing to be ripped off! but not if you're not going to put some effort in and get it right.
I reckon that if your spending good money on kits that's not too much to ask for. As I keep pointing out there are other parts of the club that is excellent but the club shop has never improved.
Incidentally they have more than enough tops left down there.
It was never like this when Chris Tugwell was in charge.
:o(
Fair point and if the shop can improve then let them know.
but as I said if some one should be sacked then e-mail them or at least Steve Waggott and say that so they can either write out his p45 or say why not.
"they had to borrow a printing machine from the training ground "
They didn't even have a printing machine there.
Well planned launch day eh.
"Fair point and if the shop can improve then let them know"
Henry, you dont understand mate. I ran around after the club and made numerous phone calls two years previously on a cock up with the kits. I rang the club to speak to somebody. No reply.
What makes you think I'm going to waste my time *again*.
Isn't it meant to be a *professional* football club/business?
They can't even take money (£100+) I'm willing to spend with them.
And you want me to spend more of my time complaining as to why their business won't take my money?????
No wonder we're bloody skint.
I 's br k n
You seem happy to "waste your time" slagging an individual and the club off on here, rightly or wrongly, but you will not give that person the opportunity to respond directly to your attacks.
You've got his e-mail. It would take you a matter of seconds to cut and paste it to him.

Henry, you're not reading my posts.
I've done this 2 years ago.
Nothing happened.
And don't be under any misapprehension that this is another fan lost, unfortunately for me I'll be back at the head of the queue with my £100 at the next kit launch.
Like these posts, what happens regarding the kits just gets *very* boring.
Thanks for your replies though.
PS: Lets just pray that the 'Cabrini' logo doesn't peel off eh
there are hundreds of busineess's selling these machines we are not a premier club anymore and therefore are not tied up with their supplier or shouldn't be.Go and get your own numbers and letters made up no problem
Having a moan and discussing is one thing, calling for someone to be sacked if something entirely different.
I've read all your posts and fully understood them. You should, IMHO, have the courage of your convictions and tell the guy to his face or at least his e-mail.
And I repeat he is not just moaning but calling for that person to be sacked on a forum read by a number of the persons colleagues and employers (eg the directors of CAFC not including me).
That it is the Charlton shop is directly relevant.
I had an email, a very polite and considered email, a few weeks ago from an ex ST holder who I have met a few times asking why the club had made not attempt to market STs or match tickets to him despite him being a red card member and having purchased match tickets on many occasions last year.
He pointed out that he saw this as a missed opportunity and asked for a response. He didn't start by calling for sackings or describing people as incompetent.
I wonder what sort of reaction such an email would have got on here.
