Eh, load-balancing, fail-overs and caching?
Sounds more like you are describing clowns and acrobats at Billy Smart's Circus.
I also can't get on... It's so basic, it shouldn't be this difficult when you're expecting a surge in web traffic. Anyone care to shed any light on what's available? Any offers on replica kits?
Is the shop site just ours or us it a multiply deal like Sky Blue Player and the main website?
I can't imagine peak traffic is more than a couple of thousand at absolute most. I'd wager SBT has more demand on it. Maybe Nick can offer them some space?

I have already emailed the guy at Just Sport
Looks like it is hosted through their web developer, probably just a normal basic server at Red Station.
They could do with a couple of servers load balanced though, not too hard to setup.
Nah I think it is through Just Sport's Web Developer who does all the other club shops too! They have sent out a black friday email to I assume all the clubs fans and the traffic has killed it.
Could sort them out with a load balanced option easy enough
It would spread the load between 2 servers then!
No kits, it's mainly the Avec training/leisure stuff and small gifts.
I believe they said on a recent tweet that it was online and in store.
inhad the same problems getting on. Worked initially and seemed fine. Then more people got in on the act and it slowed it down to the point of it stopping altogether.
I don't think 'Black Friday at CCFC store' is a statement indicative of the club joining in with the feel good jamboree of price slashing currently sweeping the nation, is it?
Surely, it's a performance update?

TBH, part from the damning headline (which is accurate) the article is an advert for the online deals.

Absolutely gutted I couldn't get the morning off work
I can picture the scenes in the club shop... grown men brawling over Sky Blue Sam teddies... pretty frightening stuff.

Got a skyblue sam for my little lad, Sodding £5 postage and a proper chugging internet speed nearly put me off but I am determined to indoctrinate his tiny 3 year old mind to my skyblue way of thinking
Saying a deal crashed a website is not damning, it's high praise in online retail.
