Quoted from Poojah
Ironically, the person most responsible for those high prices has seemingly had no problem sourcing GTFC merchandise.


Ironically.. there are people out there that still think the prime minister is in charge of the country and its decision making..

Quoted from Ruston AT

  I went into the club shop this week to buy a shirt, the shirt was the price I expected. When I looked at the other fare on sale I was gobsmacked, a bar of chocolate 4.99 , a small wooden chopping board 19.99.
This is not what the GTFC shop is about, there was nothing that I thought that could be a stocking filler.

Does anyone else think that the buyer for the shop has got it wrong? What's changed?


I impulse bought the chocolate bar and they charged me £5.50 so you are lucky

I have to say I agree with Rushton, many items are very expensive and make you think twice about buying. All the headwear is well overpriced at £15 /£16 for a (Boris) bobble hat that could be bought for £3-50 on Freeman St .... well above inflation! Most other items I would say are at least £10 over the odds. This makes it hard work for those on low or fixed incomes who naturally have a better regard for value for money.

It seems expensive because the pound is so weak compared to every other significant currency. Nothing to do with Brexit of course.


Football related stuff has always been expensive especially with the badge on long before Brexit.

The clothing has always been costly for as long as I remember.

So are you saying you can buy a GTFC bobble hat on Freeman St market for £3.50?

Surely anything with GTFC on it, in the big scheme of things is considered a limited run? So will always be more expensive than an item without a logo. At the end of the day the club shop is another revenue stream for the club. If we all want success, the club are going to need all the money they can get!

I have a drawer full of bobble hats (who doesn't like a bobble hat when it's cold) and they are all vary in both cost and quality but my three GTFC hat's are by far the best in the collection, i bought one and two were christmas gifts so priceless to me but if you want quality you have to pay for it simples
