Looks like they are opening a store in West Orchards to make up for stadium one closing for the games.

Love it always feel they should have one in the City Centre, and if they sell tickets aswell then thats a bonus.
People dont always want to go out of their way to the CBS to get them.

I don't know why they don't sell merchandise or tickets in a shared shop in the city centre so to reduce costs

yeah really strange that it hasn’t dropped. Tweeted the club on a couple of occasions and they’ve said they’re ‘awaiting a sale date’. It’s usually in stock way before the shirts

I asked the other day in the shop have you got any phone cases due in with the new stock?
All I got back was “I don’t knowwwwwwww”

I wonder how much it would cost to have outlets in Nuneaton, Rugby and Leamington? Maybe not a shop in its own right but a section of an existing shop? If nothing else it could help maintain the club's profile in the neighbouring towns which we consider part of our area, and with clever marketing it could prove beneficial. I guess it kind of goes against the SISU ethos though so its undoubtedly a none starter for that reason alone.

it’s a good suggestion. Worst case, they could or should utilise the pop up matchday van and move to the centre oF each toend of the surrounding areas.

As someone who grew up in Rugby I often think that we don't do enough to maximise our support in those satellite towns. We should get the players going to the schools, expand free tickets to schoolkids there as well as from Cov. If they did open somekind of outlet then get players down for meet and greet sessions too.

The funniest was when they started selling merch in Asda Walsgrave.

Good to see a shop in town. The demand for shirts is seriously high and is only getting bigger.

or while the sky is blue and the sky blue army remix on repeat for 9 hours straight, like they did in the old club shop really felt for the staff having to endure that on loop day in day out

In the past I offered them that in our shop in Rugby town centre for tickets and merchandise. Said that there wouldn’t be any rent to pay. Just happy to have more people come through the door. Every time I’ve brought it up it was turned down.

Thought for a while some kind of Cov Shop in the city centre would be good, that sold all the local teams stuff, plus you could do crap like lady Godiva merch and tickets for local attractions or whatever.
