I'm pretty sure I got it from Bourne Sports. Bourne Sports was the bollocks, you could get loads of stuff in there you couldn’t get anywhere else. Was after a pair of Kelme boots once and they were the only shop that had them I bought a “very” expensive pair of Patrick boots (like slippers) from Bourne Sports in the 70’s. They split after beyond repair after two games. I returned them and got charged postage for returning them to the manufacturer. 🫣🫣. Young and inexperienced on Consumer Rights |

I believed (believe) that if a product is faulty you have the right to return the product under contract to the provider (selller) free of charge and agree to a replacement or return of monies paid. In the example provided by yourself I would have expected Brasher to have either sent you a “free postage label” or covered the cost of the postage. As I said at the beginning my understanding of our rights may be completely wrong. Hopefully another poster could shed factual light on the subject as we all face these types of issue at some time or another 👍 Something different to debate 😁😁😁 |

I was responsible for the Hi Tec kit deal that season. The original company for whatever reason did not fulfill the contract and I managed to get the club a deal via my footwear sponsors. It was somewhat of a rush job, eleventh hour plus and the club were grateful at the time. I picked the yellow and blue away strip colors too. As for the tracksuits, the club bought a job lot and chose not to have the badge on them. Can you remember if we were moving from Umbro to someone else anyway at that time? I had the hi-to home top, which I loved as a kid, but the quality of that home shirt was questionable with many different pattern variations. What I really liked was that they incorporated the red sleeves into it. I was a fan of the away colours too, again as a kid I saw those solid sleeve colours as harking back to the Umbro pinstripe kits which I was a fan of. My understanding is that Stoke weren't planning a move from Umbro, or didn't think that was on the cards and then suddenly, there was no deal at all. Hence the late call up of Hi Tec. I wanted to try something a little different and was lucky enough to be in a position to do it so I am glad that you at least liked the sleeves  |

Was a sample the rep had and she managed to coax it from him ( often wondered how) on the basis that she didn't wear it it until released. Of course she wore it to a pre season friendly, possibly Newcastle town and was surrounded Patrick had a habit of doing that. I remember Kevin Keegan on Swap Shop and he gave Noel Edmonds a pair of boots, live TV of course and showed the brand name to camera a few times |

I remember Wayne who worked in hospitality told me that when they were about to sponsor the club he had to take them on a tour of the ground .. wives included. They went into the dressing room thinking was empty and a naked John Gayle came out of the showers. Wayne asked him to cover up as ladies present he just said 'suck my black man's c- '. 😁 He was also caught on CCTV...erm servicing the catering lady on a table. Won't mention her name 😁 |

Got the cagoule today, glad I upsized by a couple after looking at the size guide when I ordered it! Can't be a real 3XL!
Looks great though 👌

Got the red and white top today in the post and it's great, fits perfectly too Had the home shirt and Cagoule land through yesterday. Very happy with like-ness and fit, the cagoule feels exactly the same as the original one I owned in the 90's did with the white meshed inner lining to boot as well 😁! For info of those who didn't manage to purchase one of the home shirts due to selling out pretty quickly, ive just found someone on Ebay is selling them for £99 each! They've obviously just bulk bought to sell on, hope the rob dog is lumbered with them, trying to make an unhealthy profit at genuine Stoke fans expense, who could have purchased them direct from SCFC for the RRP is bang out of order IMHO. |

There's a feature where you can get an email when your size is back in stock so I assume they're planning on producing more?.. if not, it's an odd thing you can sign up and do. |

Bizarrely enough the whole Retro Range is now showing as 'Sold Out', even the Matchwinner tracksuit tops!
None of the sizes in the tracksuit tops were showing as 'Sold Out' earlier on today so wonder if someone's mass purchased them in the hope of making money 🤔😬

Doubt it, apparently they're not even having anything by way of winter range in ie bench jackets, gillets etc! Footy manager bench styled coats have always sold well at clubs in particular at Stoke but nothing doing this year. They didn't have anything last season either! Disappointing really, & failing to capitalise on the changing seasons doesn't seem to make great business sense either as the big winter jackets have always had a market. Yet sure they'll be quick to have Hawaiian shirts & flip flop merch out ready for the summer early next year 🙄😬! |
