Big Col Posted May 22, 2020 Report Share Posted May 22, 2020 That’s a bit pricey. Especially at a time when people are struggling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the same time a lot of people are not struggling. Anyone I know working from home is saving £ not travelling or spending on food or drink outside. Couple friends on furlough have a 2nd job. It's a weird economy and it will get weirder. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagfox Posted May 22, 2020 Report Share Posted May 22, 2020 £35 for an adult top? Not sure if a T-shirt or a precursor for their strip template? Seems pricey on the face of things right enough. Also can't see an opportunity for wearing that? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not really the point unless you're trying to say most folk are better off now and most folk will restart their employment just where they left off. Reality is we're heading for a recession. Large scale unemployment, job insecurity, reduced hours etc are part and parcel of what's in store for many. I honestly don't believe that Greaves/O'Neils are pitching their products at a limited I'm alright Jack, I've got two jobs market. That would be niche marketing gone completely mental. More likely they've bought/produced limited stock and not withstanding the £5 donation are trying to maintain their normal margins. £30 (plus donation) for a T Shirt seems to me too pricey under normal conditions never mind these uncertain times.

Norgethistle Posted May 22, 2020 Report Share Posted May 22, 2020 I understand why it’s being done, but so many companies are now using the “£5 from ever purchase goes to NHS” that it’s becoming a way of marketing off people’s support of NHS. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jaggernaut Posted May 23, 2020 Report Share Posted May 23, 2020 (edited) At the risk of appearing "sexist," in my opinion the design looks more likely to appeal to females than males, but besides that, 35 quid for any tee-shirt, for any purpose, is exorbitant. On another point, I see that the Airdrie diamond design is still being pushed to Jags fans by Puma (or is that old stock that Greaves couldn't shift last time?). Nothing on that page (so far) tempts me. Edited May 23, 2020 by Jaggernaut Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

allyo Posted May 23, 2020 Report Share Posted May 23, 2020 Yeah, I think I'd rather spend 10 quid on a t-shirt and give 25 to the nhs 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
