SiJ Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 Shambolic. Seriously, I'll f*cking apply to be the commercial director at the club. I know absolutely f*ck all, but I could at least organise a pi55 up in a brewery, which is seemingly beyond the skillset of Mister Palmer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ozzieowl Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 Me too.....soooooo angry mad Behind the scenes is an absolute joke at minute. Anniversary year stuff is shambolic. kits fiasco is embarrassing now the watch thing. Was looking forward to treating myself to one of only 150. Yes not an amazing watch but a symbol of our anniversary. Should have been 1867 watches at a reasonable price. to offer another watch similar but a month later and not limited numbers is an insult at the same price. I want my refund as quick as they flipping took it. Disgrace....embarrassing...shambles...pathetic fuming.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maddogbob Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 Jesus it gets bloody worse! Why didn't they just do 1867 run they would have easily sold those. So meny disappointed people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevie snerklebox Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 Sekonda watch. Same watch without 150 crest & number is £71 in Argos apparently. I very much doubt that if they ever materialise, they won’t last much North of 150 days anyway, such is the absolute car crash that is our ‘commercial’ dept. Truly pathetic.

Guest kelliesleftnut Posted October 6, 2017 Share Posted October 6, 2017 The watch is something that I had little interest in but I do feel for the guys who are being let down. Not good again on the clubs part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dumboldowl Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 12 hours ago, A12owl said: Me too. How can they realistically expect anybody to pay the same price for a NON limited edition as a LIMITED edition. Its worse than a joke. I replied to the cancellation mail telling them what I thought .How many more mess ups can the club dream up. Joe Palmer should be sacked without compensation as NOT FIT FOR THE PURPOSE. Totally incompetent. So have I. I hope that everyone else who has been let down will let the club know their feelings as well. As a matter of interest, has anyone on Owlstalk who ordered one, still not received a cancellation? i.e. does anyone know that the watch will ever exist, or is it another shirt type wee wee tail up?

nebneeb Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 Also cancelled mine. I won't be accepting a non limited edition watch that looks bobbar and will be delivered late, for the same price. Shambles is an understatement. I'll be writing to the club in full later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steelowl Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 TBH I really like the idea of a celebration watch perhaps a better one than the one they c*cked up They should re introduce the gold lottery watch I posted a pic of earlier something that lasts and can be handed down 30+ years later still works wore it everyday for 20 years I don't wear it everyday now just for special matches but I doubt the sekonda will last unless kept in a box Anyone else got the gold plated lottery watch ?

Lomas613 Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 13 hours ago, dumboldowl said: Just received my cancellation as well. Ordered on the first day. Begs the question how many were ordered, and why it's taken them a week to discover the error. Another blinding example of the sheer amateurism on the commercial side. I don't think the alternative offer will be over subscribed. Spoken to shop they said that the amount ordered was in the low hundreds I asked because I want a watch that’s still sort of low amount of. He said on phone manager won’t them tell how many had been sold but what he did say was no where near a thousand in the low hundreds I said what like 2 3 hundred he said around there “but I cannot disclose it” sooooo your still buying a watch that has only 150ish made of it just without any issue number on. There’s obviously 150 of the originals then whatever after. Still a limited edition as none will be sold in store it’s only to suffice the overflow.

Mr. Tom Posted October 7, 2017 Share Posted October 7, 2017 Amazing. At this rate it's only a matter of time before we have a home game with an attendance of zero because they sell tickets for the wrong day or forget to open the ground. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
