Looks like they might be going bust or something then?

'Kinell, what else can happen this season!!

Did they do stuff for the bankrupt team?

Looks like it!

 

[skybluepm2]

Surprised that they’re in financial difficulties when they charge £6 delivery for a sock

The Mike Ashley helicopter will be scrambled if they are in trouble.

[Kilclines curly mullet]

Does this mean Hummel UK potentially going bust or is Elite Sports Group just a sub company (middle man as such)

 

[jordan210]

Did they do stuff for the bankrupt team?

Yes and was still selling stuff as of a few days ago.

Bet it cost a fortune with he amount of tat they had for them.

 

[fernandopartridge]

Management buyout coming?

 

[jordan210]

wonder if Hummel is going to do it themselves with out a 3rd party.

 

[hill83]

First step towards Donnay kits

 

[jordan210]

Interesting Southampton have dumped them. Everton another Hummel club isn't run by elite

Elite Sports Group seems to owe a reasonable amount of money due to be repaid over the year 1/4/21 to 31/3/22 - the margins are tight >2% in this kind of business so any sort of downturn will quickly have an affect.

Once again the club's owners' strategy of outsourcing everything leads to a loss of control and ultimately a loss of income

Wonder how many clubs don't outsource these days? Would guess if you don't use a company like this, or you're a big enough club to deal with the big manufacturers direct, you're back in the world of crap template kits.

So ultimately wasps going bust with about 200+ unique items on their site would not have helped

It would depend on if they were owed anything and if they had shit loads of Wasps stock sat about.

Im sure wasps paid for everything and onetime. They have no history in not paying bills....

Not sure how it works, you would think if they ran the website and shop then they would take the money and then send the % to Wasps / CCFC.

The thing with us is, who owns the agreement for the club shop? The club or them?

 

[ajsccfc]

It can't be coincidence that this site's suddenly gone up

Not surprised

GK kits went out of stock in June and still had fuck all back in. Along with some sizes of the home and away

I placed an order this morning, wonder if I'll get it.
I did receive a email, but I realise they are generic.

 

[ccfctommy]

I was gunna buy the third shirt in the black Friday week sale!

 

[Ashdown]

Bad luck or more mismanagement being partnered with this crowd ? Such a shame as the kits have been fantastic and the range of stuff pretty good…If a bit expensive . Hopefully it will sort itself out in good time before Xmas.

 

[Old Warwickshire lad]

?????? Called into shop at stadium this morning. Got some tickets and a shirt. Everything seemed normal.

 

[oakey]

Let's hope we get a new broom in charge of merchandise. Its been awful for years. Literally 10 times more items for babies and dogs than for womem. I looked last week and the women's section had TWO items.

Wasps launched a new kit just before going bust…

Wasps launched a new kit just before going bust…

22nd August.

If that company got loads in to sell they are probably piled up with plastic flags somewhere.

Just waiting for sports direct to take over the clubs retail requirements now!
