I once sent them an email offering to sort it all from top to bottom....didn’t even get a response 😀

Probably got intercepted by the manager who thought you'd show em up.

There really isn't any excuse for the club to be this bad at this stuff year on year. I'd expect experienced amateurs to be better than this.
Whenever things look bad, remember the Port Vale, Grimsby and Walsall days... not so bad now, eh?!

I’d say we are very poor commercially
Take the new kits.....no letters or numbers yet , so people have ordered without, very few of which will bother to get 5hem printed later
However, despite not having the numbers/letters.....they could still be takin* “advance orders” which would
A) increase the turnover
B) get the money in the bank now

Then there’s the “trilogy of kits”....hardly anyone is going to buy all 3....but if you but 2 get the 3rd half price ?....

I’m warming up 😂

I wouldn't want the 3rd kit if it was free. It's ghastly and thank God we may never be seen in it.

Brought all 3; best trio of kits ever!

On a side note, has anyone ever brought an Albion shirt from DHGate? If so, what the hell did it look like lol....

Well I'll let you know I've just ordered the home and away combined for a total of £24.

That's a bargain these days. Personally I'd have got the away and third kit. There's something great about the West Brom yellow kits in my opinion.

Have you got a link please? I’ve looked at DH gate in the past and seen some good stuff but never bought anything. Copy shirts are so good these days you can’t really tell the difference.

Just google dhgate and search West Bromwich Albion and you’ll get loads.

Apparently the wait can be long and sometimes you get absolute shockers but for that price and just needed a couple of kickabout tops I thought I may give it a try

The clubs shirts are way overpriced. £55 for something that cost £5 to make is ridiculous!
You can buy a Marc Darcy 3 piece suite for £150.00 !!
£15 tops is reasonable.
I know all clubs do it but times are changing.

A couple of years ago in Lanzarote for the first time ever I saw a fake Albion top hanging up with Chadli on the back. Only time I’ve ever seen it!

Not that I think it needs much pointing out to those who post here, but for those who only read this forum:

Do be aware that any recent merchandise bought from free-for-all marketplaces like eBay or international wholesale-type places like AliExpress or DHGate are almost certainly not authentic.




]Apparently the wait can be long and sometimes you get absolute shockers but for that price and just needed a couple of kickabout tops I thought I may give it a try

Of course, if you have no issue with the often huge lead times and quality / accuracy, it's usually quite cheap (and cheerful?)
For instance clothing is rarely high risk and so it's fine. It's worth being much more cautious when buying higher value items or things that may pose hazard (like children's toys, electric scooters, etc).

I'll leave the ethics of such products to others. :-X

I would be wary buying shirts for kids, the wrong materials will melt when exposed to heat and can inflict horrible burns, as an adult you know the risk / benefit (cost) and can weigh that up for yourself.

Also, don't buy them for your kids. Better to not have one as they'll be obviously fake from a mile and kids are animals. The taunting will be terrible

not sure about the Albion ones specifically but modern fakes are absolutely bang on and in most cases unable to tell the difference short of checking labels and product codes.

My lad bought Barcelona and PSG shirts in Spain last year and the quality was brilliant. Came with Nike tags and looked like the real thing. It is only the badges that look a bit different but hardly noticeable. I'm going to buy a fake Albion one and see what its like. Worth the gamble at under £15.

last years was awful, the sleeves were totally wrong, maybe the fakers have taken more notice this year with us being  premier league now.

Interesting question,
How long are the shorts ?

Should it be how short are the shorts?

No idea by the way, just being an backside really !
