You have to put it in your basket and then choose the size from the drop down when checking out.

Gunna be honest. Gobsmacked what they are charging and only £10 going to NHS. Surely they cost next to nothing to make.

They need to try and keep money coming in somehow . Its charity and supporting the club in these difficult times . Obviously not everyone has the money but some will .

Can't believe some people. People ask how can they help the club through this difficult time, then find an excuse to moan when the club is doing something positive and raising funds for both the NHS and themselves

Just pointing out I think it’s expensive. Not moaning that the club are trying different ways to raise money at all.

Take it you have bought one already then?

Regardless, every penny helps everybody, let's hope we still have a club at the end of this challenging time for all.

A shirt is a shirt get one if you want or don't it's entirely up to you. The club is doing it's best and good luck to them. At the end of the day it's our club and every little helps. So I will be getting one whether you think it's bad or not. So there u go Piquad out.

I disagree. As above, having masses of merchandise locked away in closed shops and not making it available online is apathetic.
On the T-shirt, how come delivery is in mid-July (at best)? Every other sports club had these available immediately (even Wakefield) - why does it take us three months to manufacture a basic t-shirt when everyone else can get them made and available in a week? Again, this isn’t a case of the club doing its best. It’s the same when we get to a major final - we don’t make the effort to produce the merchandise that other clubs do to take financial advantage.
The club is doing what the club usually does - hoping for the best rather than taking action to achieve the best outcome.

Edit - just for balance, I think Club 1926 is a great idea. Immediate access to Tigers TV etc, and it’s completely understandable that the shirt is pre-order because it will have names sublimated into the design.

This is the difference between people with reasonable discussion against blind faith. Asking realistic questions about an idea is common sense, just throwing money at things to resolve it isn’t.

You only need to know which method JF used to resolve your ashes to see eventually it will catch up with you and you end up in a worse situation than ever.

Unfortunately a few t shirts may raise a few bob but won’t resolve the issues. Let’s see how many people buy one and then ask people why they didn’t buy one and see what the reasons are. I would go with what Notts has said.

My point is that the closed shops are full of stock in every size. The stock online is very limited in terms of the products available (eg no heritage shirts) and the sizes that are available (you can't get the most common sizes in most products).
I smiled at the 3 for 2 offer on training wear - there aren't even three items the same size available, unless you are XS or XXXL. I'd happily buy a heritage shirt for £35 and three polos for £33, but the ones my size are all locked away in closed shops and not available online.

Perhaps you should just buy any shirt you can Notts to prove to everyone "How much you love the club." That seems to be the way some people work and want others to work.

I personally think we need to be realistic . Online and shops are run completely separately. Would it be worth staffing the shops to sort online orders out . I don't think it would.

Or perhaps a virtual brick....
I would actually just donate to the club if it was possible.
