    I received the same email…..absolute bollox, not a single item was Charlton related.
    What are these people on FFS, it’s a massive insult if you ask me.

    Thanks Clive 

    So the club have signed a shit contract with a shit supplier that doesn't allow us to get out of it even when the other party fails to deliver. 

    I can't believe anybody goes to the club shop or website to buy Charlton toot,  comes away buying a never heard of branded item instead.

    How does this work for the club, the fans or Castore? It works for nobody surely?
    Before entering a contract it’s a good idea to do your due diligence into a company to see what other  clubs have had experiences with before signing on the dotted line.

    All the red flags were there with Castore from their mess with Rangers , can't believe we ditched Hummel for this.

    Went into the Castore shop last night, I don't know why they are now selling Charlton badges, bottle openers and key rings.  What is that all about?!
    Hey - traitor - we are supposed to boycotting the Charlton Castore store !!

    Joking aside - was it busy ?
    I am not joking, at 17.50 I was the ONLY one in there!  There was around 7 staff standing around picking their nose.
    Oh, was that you? I looked in the window at 17:48 and thought I'd leave going in until that weirdo had finished his shopping. 
    I saw him in there as well - I thought the club had starting selling Garden Gnomes again at first glance.

    Said several months ago that "we" signed a contract without checking the small print.

    And despite the ongoing protests from RM /TS that we're trying REALLY hard to get the issue of stock turned around, the season will be done & dusted with a new kit on sale & with no positive outcome for the fans.

    Talk is cheap, guys...

    Winter is approaching and fans cannot buy a wooly hat or scarf to keep warm. Ridiculous.

    Well TS does everything else on the cheap, it’s a joke but sadly that’s where our club is under his ownership.

    Darren, top bloke, he donated a kit for the liberal club when we had a Sunday team

    Still not purchased a single shirt this season, also have a gift card from last Xmas that I'm yet to use. First time in 6-7 years the club have had no money from me.

    The boy is asking for a Charlton hat for Xmas too and I have nowhere ro buy one from online. Fully at the age where he should be becoming obsessed, his England kit arrived on Saturday and he slept in it.

    The whole thing is mental. TS is an idiot.

    Trying to treble the revenue but not got the first clue on how to get the relatively simple stream of the club shop working!

    Good luck Thomas.

    I think it’s more likely working correctly…..it’s simply that the content/stock is absolute crap, i.e no CAFC content. 🫤

    That's fine if you're going to the ground on a match day, not much help for everyone else.

    Thanks to whoever it was that alerted us to Charlton Castore gear being available more cheaply on other sites. I've just bought the below for £48 that is on our official site for £90.

    I went to Matlock v Marske yesterday, the junior supporters section has a greater selection than we have.

    Interesting to read that Elite Sports, which I think handled our Hummel deal and ran the shop until the switch to Castore, has gone into administration, impacting a number of clubs using Hummel.

    Southampton, Coventry and Millwall have all  temporary closed their shops and online sales due to Elite Sports going into administration.
