The club shop online has sold out of Scarves and T shirts - anyone know a good place to get some (ideally genuine) merchandise?

Did you phone their enquiry line? They had sold out last week too but got more stock in at the weekend, which has obviously sold out. They might get another delivery between now & Sunday?

If not, won't there be guys selling merchandise at Wembley?

Whilst I know it's easy to moan, I really think the club have missed a good marketing trick over CC Final merchandise.

I'm not a collector of large scale Blues stuff but like small mementos.

I'm still drinking my tea out of my 2001 Cardiff mug but going down to the club shop on Saturday there seemed to be T-shirts, scarves and nothing much else.

No mugs, no keyrings, nothing much at all.

Think of the money we've missed out on.

Mind you, I could still be waiting for my CC WINNERS mug !

Thanks Mrs F - I did call but got an answer phone - understandably they're probably trying to get through the deluge of ticket sales rather than flog T shirts to people like me!

I don't think it's the same number you call though is it?

Anyhow, here's the number I called last week - 0844 557 1486. (When the call was answered I got the impression I was through to the Club shop, might be wrong though.)

I would be very surprised if they're not getting more stock between now and Sunday. They'll make a mint this week! Hope you get your stuff! :)

It's a different number to the tickets but I'm guessing they've seconded all staff to the ticket office to deal with the vast crowd and hundreds waiting on the phones - was wondering if it might be worth popping down there but St Andrews sounds like mayhem so might leave it a few days ;-)

Is there a JJB Sports in Birmingham?

I saw an ad in our paper on Saturday that they're doing all Premiership tops 1/2 price. Funny enough the Blues shirt wasn't in the photo! :whistle:

EDIT: Just checked it out and it's only size 3XL left in the Blues home top! :LOL:

Just take a cruise around the beautiful suburbs of our great city and buy some 'unofficial' merchandise from Dodgy Dave at the Wheatsheaf or Pinching Pete in Acocks Green.

Reason I didn't buy sooner was because I didn't know I was going till 3 hours ago :rolleyes:
As for the bloke in Solihull, yes - saw him on Friday - think that might be the answer - **thumbup

Well you would have thought they'd have placed an order when we got through as we've been out of stock of the home shirt in sizes less than huge fat ******* size for ages.

Sorry of thats a bit fatist, but hey like I care :angel:

I was in the shop on Saturday and there were plenty of mugs in there - spending a fortune on shoddy tat! :LOL:
