£51.99 for a hoodie

Are they Ralph Lauren?

For that price they better be...but being serious



Lets take the Rhinos kit as a comparison, they use ISC the same as us



Their Polo shirts are £23 and we're charging £37

Their Hoodies are £35 and we're charging £51



I like buying the club polo's etc but thats taking the p&ss and i won't be buying at that price

I brought 1 baby grow(£9) and 1 baby bib(£6.50) on Sunday(before ko) which I thought was very steap for what they are!! I'm happy to help put some money in the tills and want to buy some of the new gear but the mark-up is ridiculous!!

Hmm.



Based solely on what has been posted, I suspect another marketing own goal may be in the offing here?





Been involved in marketing for years, but WTF do I know, eh? But, had it been me and had I been seeking to charge über-premium prices for leisurewear, I would have said something like "from this sale, £x will go straight to funding the Bulls academy. Buy this hoodie/polo shirt/tee shirt/whateveer and you will be directly helping to build our stars of the future." Assuming that such a statement was the truth, and assuming £x was quite a significant number, I personally would have been quite happy to "do my bit" with several items - also assuming of course that the kit in question comes in XXXXXXXL...





But I fear they might have shot themselves in the foot again here. Who are they listening to?

Adey aren't the Club looking for a volunteer Company Accountant? Right up your street this one, suprised you haven't been head hunted by them, or is your penchant for asking awkward questions making you a no no? I think TT with his behind the scenes influence can make this position yours!

ISC are an Australian company and the deal will have been done 6 months ago when the Aus $ to the pound was not very good value. If we were to sell shirts etc at those prices we would loose a fortune.



I will be happy to pay as long as its going to the club and supporting them. Dont forget we almost didnt have a club to support and we all wanted decent gear.

I agree to a point



The club need fans coming through the gates and buying merchandise. The problem with these prices are that I think they've priced themselves out of a fair few sales, £37.50 is a lot of money for a polyester polo shirt. From memory this is at least a £10 increase from last years prices.



The fans have already put money into the club (£500,000) and we continue to do so when we buy tickets, attend the events and buy food/drink. The club have got to be careful to tread a fine line between trying to get every penny out of fans and pricing them out of buying things.



As I said, in previous seasons i probably bought 2 hoodies & 2 polo shirts every year. At this price i just can't justify that, over £50 for a hoody is just plain robbery

Going a little OT here but didn't anyone receive a Bulls Lotto letter through the post? I say letter, I just got a single A4 application in an envelope with no explanation of what I was signing up for. I assume this was a clerical error? I've since had a read up online about the new lotto but it seemed a bit odd sending an application form without any information.

Maybe if the merchandise didnt have Omar Khans embroided into most of the stuff it might of been a slight bit cheaper,



dont get me wrong i appreciate a great deal what the guy has done for the club.............



but i just think the omar khans logo spoils alot of the stuff in the shop for example the tracksuit tops, and i would of been happy to pay £55 for a hoody they have but it just puts me off, as it has quite a few other people so ive heard

Also have some Authentic playing shirts now in stock for £75 a pop



you can really tell the difference in quality but not worth the extra £30 to wear asa supporter IMO

At least steve will be happy. Sure he will be first in line to buy one
