I was another one that stupidly thought the clubshop would be open today only to find that they didn't want to sell me anything. And yes I also called back later just incase it was "closed for lunch".

A couple of years ago, I bought a ticket from Cheltenham Town to see them in a play-off game at the Millennium Stadium. I am not one of their supporters, and indeed had never seen them play before that game. Since then, I receive about 3 emails per season telling me about the latest offers, including one a few days ago about the post-Christmas sale. It means nothing to me - but the club is keen to keep in contact with me. And now let's compare that to our beloved Stanley which is unable to send tickets I wish to order and which cannot keep in touch with its own fans, never mind very occasional visitors.

Has anyone noticed any change following the appointment of the new "volunteers"?

The question is, will the shop be open tomorrow? Nobody really knows because the club haven't bothered to tell us. Of course, if you want one of those fleeces or hooded tops, you could order them on-line...oh no, you can't because the club haven't bothered to put them in the on-line store.

Stanleymad · 27-12-2007, 22:57

Thats true they haven't but cant pay with vouchers online hehehe clubs already got half my money & ran for the holidays. Those new fleeces & tops are nice & they could of sold much more if the online shop was updated, specially for exiles [probably they wondering what they look like or least on about], shame that these things are not taken to consideraton tho im sure we've all had this convo before about the club shop, tho not about opening during xmas.

In Peter Kay styley .........new years eve......new years eve

Ah, but how do you know it'll be open on New Year's Eve? Best get a certain someone to give you a lift up there on Saturday morning, before he escapes to the Turf!

if anybody has a picture of the fleeces or hoodies then send them to the OSC site and we'll get some pics up. I'll use paypal and post some out myself if anybody wants any.

With deep regret I've just had to order Phil Whalley's book from Amazon, none at club shop.

The 2008 calendar has been brought up on another thread, is there such a thing?

Tin Monkey · 28-12-2007, 10:10

I'm going to have to stop reading this forum.

The same thing happened with Derby County this year, while i was working down there a few months ago they were playing Newcastle on a Monday night so we decided we`d go, however the prices were way too much and we didn`t end up going, but the club still send me emails telling me of their latest offers and specials.

Tin Monkey · 28-12-2007, 11:10

Once you're paid for your connection, emails cost nothing to send. Even if you factor in the time to write one, it's only done once and can be sent to hundreds (or more).
Unfortunately the club is stuck in the early part of the last century and so haven't developed the ability to use modern technology yet (at least, not to anywhere near its potential).
