It really is poor.

We need all the money we can get. If I was the club, as well as issuing the apology on behalf of Nike, I would run some sort of “signed away shirt” for the first 200 who buy one, just to ensure that fans don’t cancel their order as they are being offered the chance to do so.

Should offer a free gift for the kids shirts that are also sold out.

Atleast we have a supply for our players to wear. Forest Green are playing their home games in a hastily prepared 3rd kit.

Seems to be problem with teams wanting nonstandard colours.

wonder if Joy will send Nike a shitty Facebook message liek Dale Vince has to Hummel

I've had an email from Royal mail this morning saying my order from Coventry city shop will be delivered today. I haven't ordered anything else so it must be the kit, although it was supposed to be delivered to the shop for collection and not my home where the delivery is coming.

Anyone else waiting for the home shirt had an email?

I've read they are sending random training shirts out to people to say sorry. It could be one of those

The season is going to be over with when these kits arrive! Glad I got ours early doors.

Do we have this one for 2 years?

I ordered one for my son last week and today got a delivery of the sock, shorts and a Sky blue, short-sleeved,Nike training top.

So now he gets the kit, a free gift (football) and a free-top.

Must be costing someone a fortune...

"Free gift with home shirt"
Sorry to be picky, but this is one phrase I hate seeing! If something is a "gift", then it's FREE! If something is "free", then it's also a GIFT! It can't be both!
"Free gift"?? GRRR!!!!
Rant over!

To be fair, they couldn’t have ordered many for us to have sold out already. I went up for one in the week to be told they didn’t have the size I needed and ‘to keep an eye out online’

Every time I see this thread title I just see that shaving advert in my head where the guy gets a punch in the bollocks. Seems quite apt.

Waiting for two full kits for my youngsters...no idea when they will arrive, as all I was given was a confirmation of payment by the club. Hopefully it'll be soon so Somerset can dazzle in sky blue!

Same as, if it had a sponsor on the front and a number on the back I’m not sure he’d have known much difference.

I collected from post office today and like others, it was the actual socks and shorts, coupled with a nice sky blue Nike training top, and a note to say the free item and actual shirt will be delivered asap.
Two extremely happy kids!

Great, with a bit of luck, my kids shirts will be with me for next Saturday, so they can wear them for a birthday football party!

Delighted kids today - two shirts and two footballs arrived AND another bonus, a Nike heritage bag, that my wife has taken!
Not bad, as they also received the bonus training top a few weeks ago!

It seems like they are at least trying to make it a bit better. I bet the kids don't even realise there's been a wait now they have been bribed?

What's a heritage bag?

Yeah, credit where it's due. There's obviously been a massive balls up but at least someone is trying to 'make it right'.

I'd like to again reiterate that the free gift which stops me being completely naked was excellent advance planning from Nike

Our 2’s kits arrived today. We ordered Nike baseball caps but got another 2 training tops instead - same as the ones they sent before. Nice gesture but would have preferred the caps
