if it follows my opinion of 99% of the pap in the club shop, it'll be as nice as the home shirt!

I honestly believe that when it comes to merchandising the club have adopted the Ratners approach. Chep quality crapola targetted at folk who'll buy any old tat because it's in the Wigan shop. Either that or the club are skint and can't afford any kind of half hearted investment in this area.

The bulk of the gear appears to be aimed at mouthbreathers & the under 5's. Some of it hasn't changed since they sold gear out of that wooden hut on the Hen Pen. It's truly, TRULY woeful. I'd like to meet the guy responsible for designing the gear, just to ask him what the thought process is? Who is it aimed at? It wouldn't surprise me if I saw that Warriors fleece make a reappearance. The one with the black body, red arms with WARRIORS written down the sleeve.

A lot of the gear isn't Kooga, it's just wholesale t-shirts, polos, hoodies and jackets that have just had the crest embroidered onto the breast. When you compare it to the ISC stuff that saints have, it's embarrassing. The stuff we sold was woeful 3/4 years ago and it prompted me to start up RL legends. We got our act together but we seem to have slipped back to selling market stall tat again.

Just to p*ss people off even more in the wake of the worst kit in living memory, look at this little beauty on ebay. Even with that Henderson Gill-esque smile, can't see him getting a grand for it!!

Please.
Please stop designing new shirts and exenuating the bad feeling of the current real shirt!

Of all the designs I've ever seen, the club approved the worse one.

As much as I dislike the new home shirt - I hate X-Factor and all those who watch it.

How did you know she was talking about the X Factor then....?
