OWLS about that? Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 2 hours ago, cross owl said: During meetings with the chairman and senior club officials at the Supporters Steering Group meeting and open fans’ forum last month, a full debate took place regarding issues with the production of the Owls’ 2017/18 replica strip. Further to those discussions, it is with regret that the club must inform supporters that the anticipated delivery schedule of kits for the end of August/beginning of September has not been met. Consequently, there will be no sales at this weekend’s Owls in the Park event as the club had hoped for. We have been given assurances that the delivery is expected within the month and as soon as we have further information regarding the release date we will announce full details. We completely understand fans’ disappointment over this issue and can assure all supporters that those frustrations are shared by the club. Your patience is appreciated and we sincerely hope that the situation is resolved in as timely a fashion as possible. Might get it for Christmas Take it away Didier......

Animis Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 didn't the guy who runs the company say he's been talking to a top La Liga team - a bet that there's a few missed calls now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would you expect there to be? How many times have you seen organisations comment on unresolved legal matters? Just because the club haven't commented on it doesn't mean it's not happening.

owlinexile Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 Oh well. There's always the 200th anniversary. Christ I'll be in my 80s by then. Yet to be convinced Chansiri knows how to run a wee wee up in a brewery. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Imagine the tin can provider to the tuna factory just decided not to deliver - would he not not sell tuna for 3 months? No - he'd sue the arse of them.

Dick_Turpin Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 2 minutes ago, Thewaynesday said: Of all the things te club could get wrong it's not exactly the worse thing in the world. Granted it's embarrassing to an extent but it does sound like it's been a case of bad luck and bad business (not necessarily all the clubs as we have been let down by manufacturers). It's not like we haven't paid the tax bill or anything. If we'd been on this message board 100 years ago we'd have been worried half the team was in the trenches in France. That would have been something to moan about. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ABC123456789 Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 I think they meant "who would the club be seeking legal redress against?". Chansiri owns the club. He can't sue himself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest kelliesleftnut Posted September 1, 2017 Share Posted September 1, 2017 "Technically in the industry a bigger brand will give a team a cheque to sponsor them but then they'll charge them through the roof on all the pricing - and the club will have to wait six months for delivery on everything," he said. "What we've established is more of a dedicated partnership model, whereby we wouldn't give them any cash, but they buy product at a more effective price and they'd get it a lot faster. "We can actually be a lot more nimble than the bigger players to give the customer what they want. Feck me. Not sure whether to laugh or cry.
