Once again I go to the club shop only to find once again that what I want is out of stock, no New Balance polo shirts for adults only little kids. every season seems to be the same, for gods sake order enough, they must know by now what sells and what doesn't. Does know one do market research at the club.

Being a gentleman who has lived well, I often find nothing in stock in XL. I can only assume that many of my co-Stokies live equally well.

Shit sometimes 3XL, your sizes run tiny over there. If there available on the site, wouldn't they be available at the club store?

Does the shop have a register of complaints? Does the "sales manager" check it out regularly?
If the answer to either question is no, the supporters club should be bringing to the attention of the CEO and requesting action.

I was told that there was none in the wharehouse and that they were waiting for New Balance to deliver, but this seems to be every year no matter who makes the kit. For a multi million pound club it's not good enough. My son paid for the home and away strip in advance and was told "after he'd paid" that the home strip wouldn't be available for a couple of months

Because I'm not local, I'm always late to the club store and all the XL sizes in the latest shirts have sold out - which tells you something about the size of the average Stokie, more the point I was making in a kind of oblique way. It's even worse during a sale. I know that if I was really bothered, I could probably buy a shirt over the net, but I generally buy Stoke stuff when browsing in the shop as part of my pre-match ritual. Sometimes I plan it (to the point of wearing an old (disposable) t-shirt to the game and binning it immediately once I don my freshly bought Stoke shirt) but generally it's a spontaneity thing.

Sorry I kind of missed the point there, brother. But its good to know that when I visit Stoke I should fit in relatively well!

There were NO !!! New Balance polo shirts in the club shop for adults, I went to the shop in Hanley and they only had 2 white ones (the colour I wanted) but they were 3 XXL which would bury me.

The Hanley shop looks like a jumble sale whenever I've been in. They could at least Iron the stuff before they display it.

Always meant to ask - is that Eric Stoltz looking stoned or wasted in your avatar? And if so, which movie is it from?

That's exactly what happened to me went from being a skinny runt to a fat knacker with very little in between. I thought it was my fondness for ale but maybe there's something in the water.
