I'm considering asking for a refund now. The customer service is absolutely shocking and is winding me up big time lately.
I ordered the 3rd kit for my son within seconds it went on sale and they still haven't despatched it. Obliviously I want it for Christmas for him, but I'm expecting another fuck up like last year when I didn't receive any till late January despite ordering again within seconds it went on sale (August last year). Surely you work through who orders it first.
If I don't hear nothing by Monday, I will pressure for it.
So pissed off to keep giving them my money with shit service.

the supporters club were asking for volunteers yesterday and today to help with shirt packing

I know that's no use to you unless they can tell you if yours has been sent, and with the post being a bit rubbish for obvious reasons it's a bit fine...

Hi all,

Due to a delay in receipt of the delivery of shirts the help with packing is now this Thursday (11am-7pm) & Friday (9am-7pm).

As we have had to change the dates there are some volunteers who were able to help that now are not available, so I am putting out another plea for help.     Thank you to people I have already contacted.

If you are able to help at all within the required timeframe, please let me know and we will add you to the rota.

Thanks

Nice one, didn't see that  Cheesy Nothing posted yet though, but I so need it by next Friday. (I think the issues I had last year sets me off big time)

Got ours within a week, tbh with you it looks pretty shit in real life.  Think someone described it as looking like a bin bag, which I wouldn’t disagree with.

Agreed the service has been shocking from the club shop. Was informed on Monday by STFC that my order had been processed and DHL would deliver Tuesday. As of this morning still no shirt. Called in at DHL on way back to work to see if still at the depot. According to their system it was never sent out by STFC in the first place. Later on today I get another message from the club saying my order is being processed and will be delivered by DHL. Utter shambles. Genuinely concerned a lot of people bought these shirts for Christmas gifts and a lot of people going to be let down it seems.

Is the club shop actually open next week, does anyone know? I would ask the club, but that’s kind of the problem - it’s difficult to find out. I’ve got Christmas presents to collect and it’s a 40minute drive for me… so it would be good to know!

Angus did say that they will be looking at other things they can offer to people who have waived season ticket refunds... so perhaps more to come
What, like a free day out in the club shop packing shirts ??.

I know "tis the season..." and all that but I find it concerning that the club can't afford to take on some temp staff to put shirts in boxes...

Devil in the detail but if I'm honest all I'm seeing lately appears to be spin. There's several small things compounding under the surface and I think (the outstanding debts aside) Clem possibly doesn't have the depth of pockets we were kind of sold that he supposedly has (or wants to use). Skintus McGintus.

I am wondering if their next PR stunt is going to be setting up a soup kitchen for the homeless but then asking an unfortunate person to pay £5 but with the promise of being able to get £5 off the Northampton match (which will strategically graded at £5 higher price than the usual rate) but you know, its all to help get the club out of debt quicker...

Tell you what... Nope. You want to treat the club like a business then take responsibility for the debts you inherited and know about. STFC is not a fan owned or 50/50 club. Not at present. If I buy a business with debts owing and even discover more debts, that's on me. I can't continually expect my clients/customers too waive fees or pay higher prices and disguise it as doing a favour for them because this is what a lot of this bullshit is at present. They can't play the "community club" narrative on one hand but when it comes to taking the piss (and your cash) with the other hand say "it's just bizniz innit ya bastards".

More spinning than your local leisure centre!

Looks like something going on with the articles of association of stfc Ltd, albeit won't be reviewable on the CH website for 10 days.

I'd imagine Clem is removing/amending the clauses that Power inserted and fucked himself over with.

Weirdly none of that makes any sense at all.
