| Why not contact the shop, ask them how many is the minimum order for a new batch of medium shirts and then see if there are enough people interested in them to make the order worth while - the shop could put a sign up asking people to order them.
If there are enough people who want them then the order can be made, fans get the shirts they want and the club makes some money - everybodys happy.
If there aren't enough people who want them then the club doesn't lose out but at least they have tried.

| Selling out two weeks into the season is poor...stop trying to argue its not.
So if we went on another cup run and wanted to sell another 1000 shirts we would say to everyone...you all should have anticipated the cup run and bought it in advance

No, I'm saying if the demand is there the club should react to it - IF the demand is there.

| We got to the semis last year and I don't recall similar complaints. Can't imagine we ordered less than last year's take up.
We did have a lot of XXL and XL shirts left over then, though.... and a few medium ones, IIRC. Large had sold out, sadly, but luckily I managed to fit the XL....

| I cant believe all the people defending the club over this, a few weeks in to the season and no shirts is a disgrace. I know there's a recession but we're a Super League club ffs, not some amateur side!!

Is it? Did we order the same number as last year? Did they all sell out quickly? Is that a good or a bad thing? Was it reasonable to assume that with a recession on we would sell significantly more?

Yes but the shirts have been on sale 3 months , but hey ho lets forget about the fact that we were one of the very few SL clubs who managed to get BOTH kits in prior to Christmas ......no lets sack the f'ing board and move NGFC in as chairman in fact no forget it lets sack the G20 an have the world run by NGFC11 even thats one egg short of a dozen.
After all the tribulations of the past 6 months i find it rather pathetic that this is a burning issue .

TBH i dont know if we ordered as many last year but no they didnt sell out as quickly cos i bought a medium more than half way through the season. I appreciate the club dont want to lose money but the season has only just started and i'm pretty sure they will sell a lot more shirts before the end of the season. Or should that be would have if they had any?
Personally i think this year they will sell more for one reason and that is what is embroidered on it.
I still think that for a professional team that is in Super League it is a disgrace that we dont have any for sale, was it 2 weeks in to the season that NGB4C said?

Why is it pathetic? I think it's pathetic that because someone raises a valid point on here that they get jumped on for it. Excuse me but i thought that is what forums were for?
No one is saying sack the board, they are just having a genuine moan about a few things. And yes the shirts were on sale before Christmas, well done to the club for this and yes the club do a lot of things well but it seems to me if certain people criticise the club then they get slagged off!

Isn't that the point, though? You got a medium size shirt half way through the season, and there may have been a number left over, so the club takes this into account. Maybe the number of (X)XL shirts left in comparison is because we simply haven't sold as many as we anticipated? Maybe they don't look good on fatties?
The point you made about Adam is a fair one, but I'm sure the shirts were ordered long before then, and the tribute came afterwards. You can't legislate for that now, can you?
Kyassor made a fair point, I think, for those who missed out. Get your names down on a list, and if there is sufficient demand, get the club to order another batch. It may not happen at ManU or Chelsea, but this is Wakey.

At last another person with a brain! Spot on yea 2 weeks into the season they go. Im sure the whinos havent sold out. Wakey are a laughing stock and it is some fans on here that dont help the matter because they havent the brain to turn things around.

Yep think Kyassor does have a fair point but, with selling out so quickly, i think the club should make an announcement to start this list with a promise that if they get a certain amount of requests then they will order them?

i love it when someone criticise someone for creating someone using the its whats forums are for excuse , that works both ways so for me as well . The shirts would of been ordered a while in advance of this.
viewtopic.php?t=386618
i can understand the frustration of people but come on if you want a shirt that bad you can buy one just not from the club , do people really think that when the mill sell a shirt Wakefield don't in some way reap a benefit ?

What you say seems fair to me, but people need to go to the club and tell them that. They won't react to any random posts made on here... credit them with more sense than that.
