I was at the Ruddington Christmas market this weekend and was surprised to see officially licensed stuff being sold by a very friendly lady from Great British Outdoor Fires (yes I know, a fire pit company!) but if you go on their website they sell officially licensed Forest and Notts Cricket stuff too. After speaking to her and looking at the website I have no reason to believe it isn't official so it benefits the club too. Looked like good quality and well made stainless steel items. Edit: she said that they no longer operate out of Notcutts Wheatcroft Garden Centre so if you turned up there you will find they have no physical presence there now. The last physical event before Xmas is at the Royal Oak in Radcliffe on Trent on Dec 9th from 4-9pm.

I've just looked at the Castore website for the first time. What an absolute joke

ZERO mens shirts available. You can buy a pair of shorts or a women's away shirt, that's about it.

We must be the only club in the football league where you can't buy a shirt online, not sure how well the club shop is stocked.

Unbelievable that the club is not kicking up a fuss about this.

i’ve not known a sports club have a good word for Castore, there must be a clause in the contract if they are not up to std?

If anyone watched the EFL highlights show there was a shot of vendors carts outside Elland Road absolutely full of merchandise and that brought home something I'd forgotten you used to see outside grounds to help with enthusiasm and atmosphere and kids urging Dad's etc to buy them something. Isn't it beyond someone's expertise to just do that, walking up to the ground often feels lifeless.

I'm sure with all this negativity to Castore and no options for fans to show their colours that any wide boy or legitimate business trader could sell out pretty quickly.

[oldweststander]

Castore are a disgrace and whoever agreed to accept what we are all seeing and signed up to it needs to hang their heads in shame whether they are still at the club or not.

At no time, it seems, have the buying supporters considered, no leisure wear available in the Summer, nothing in the shoo to buy as Christmas gifts in Nov/Dec, truly astonishing.

Was it just the fat cheque and no retail responsibility that attracted the decision makers?

[yorkshire stag]

we must have missed out on so much money this season, from beach towels to christmas gifts, let’s just hope the commercial side are on with it

[Richard Cranium]

Who is the commercial manager these days? What happened to all the tribute acts they used to have on in the 1861/KBS etc. That side of things has regressed since Big Paul was in charge.

Dan reckons Castore has gone downhill since Mike Ashley is no longer associated with them.

I think the absolute silence from the club on something that has been rumbling on here all season means you shouldn't hold your breath YS !!

I've been waiting since 2016 to see a full Stereotonics gig at the ground....

The PR from the club at this moment in time is absolutely 5hit unless, you want to book a mascot package which is, "overpriced."

The Old Bill will be straight onto them, their carts will be in the back of the Old Bill van heating the flats on Oak Tree within the hour.

Do we or did we ever get fan representation in board meetings?
If so, can they not bring it up.
If not, how about Steve Hymas making a comment about the pathetic situation this is ? After all he is on quite often.
