Where is the club shop nowadays, serious question....
Interestingly they have a partnership with Nike. Is CCFC's deal with Puma up?
Club announcement is here

interesting they make so much of the Charlton connection
North East base as well.....
I'm not overly impressed, essentially we are buying ready made NIKE kits and this company put on the logo's and sponsor's. The top clubs who use NIKE have a much better quality of kit, the reason all these clubs are doing this is to save money. I'm not exactly against it but it's a very generic kit we will have which will be same design/style as many other clubs in league 1/2. I can say now that Mowbray would have had absolutely nothing to do with the kit supplier!!It simply seems as though many lower league clubs (yes we are a lower league club) are beginning to go down this road as it's cheaper and clearly easier to manage, especially if they're taking on the e-commerce side and club shop.
If it's going to streamline that side of the club's business and save money then I'm all for it but I'm just not that excited about the actual partnership/kit.
Aside from our 1960s special kit a few seasons back, haven't we always just used template designs? Along with most of the clubs in football generally.
What would impress you?
What do you think we've been doing for at least the last 4 years? Do you really think Nike would be designing a bespoke kit for a league one club?! wowI'm not overly impressed, essentially we are buying ready made NIKE kits and this company put on the logo's and sponsor's.

A handjob off the queen
Is there room for our own retail shop at the Ricoh ? i know Wasps have swallowed up the original one but it looks like maybe our owners are lookimg to improve that side of things but is the facitilty there. Or would a better stocked shop at the Gallagher retail park or even in the city centre be the more viable option. Perhaps even our beloved council could go easy on shop rent and rates as a bit of an apology for flogging our ground !
very good news. One less thing for our owners not to manage

I don't see the issue of it being at Gallagher as long as we can sort some sort of matchday presense at the Ricoh to sell stuff too.

The location at Gallagher isn't brilliant though is it, city centre or at the ground for me if it's to work.
It would piss me right off if it was in town. Have to go, park up, pay to park up, walk across town to the shop just to get a ticket.
Lazy sod!
It isn't really if I just want to pick tickets up or something.
Ideally they would just have a couple of outlets inside other shops
