All I know is I bought an XL home shirt and was made to feel like jabba the hut after a parmo and 15 pints wearing Ronnie Corbetts vest..!!
A bit like you - I read the thread- thought the response from mfc was defensive and mostly self congratulatory but the line about record shirt sales struck me immediately as a right load of bo110xYeah I was definitely thinking it, you’ve cut right through the faff there tbh.

I think “at times” is doing a lot of heavy lifting there Rob. The sheer quantity of complaints on here is evidence that all is not rosy despite the line from the club.I posted that line because I had been told it by the club previously.
They didnt submit it as an answer but I thought everyone should be aware that despite all the shortages and size problems we are selling more shirts.
I also know that the shop is selling out of stock at times but they are selling high volumes in general this season. ie it is not a failing operation

Internet.Never thought for one moment it was a failing operation.
I just don’t buy the spin that we are selling more replica shirts now as a mid table champo club than we were during the glory years of the 90s and 00s when we were winning promotion, getting to cup finals and were an established premier league club and gaining national/international attention …..sorry….
Boro were never huge sellers of merchandise, we only sold in the stores until we went online. I can well believe we are selling more now than back in those days due to worldwide shipping.Never thought for one moment it was a failing operation.

The figures should be easy for them to produce then.Boro were never huge sellers of merchandise, we only sold in the stores until we went online. I can well believe we are selling more now than back in those days due to worldwide shipping.
Believe it or not Boro have never been a fashionable club and we’ve only sold our merchandise in Boro and not even In JJB, sports direct etc.
I believe the staff when they say it’s record sales.
Go and ask them and I’m sure they will provide you with what you need.The figures should be easy for them to produce then.
We were briefly when we had Juninho and Rav. Everyone knew who we were, including overseas and attracted a fair few "fans" not from the area.Believe it or not Boro have never been a fashionable club and we’ve only sold our merchandise in Boro and not even In JJB, sports direct etc.
The onus is on them as they've made the claim. And if you’d read the thread you’d see I’ve already asked the person who posted the claim on behalf of the club where I can find more information, or who I should contact.Go and ask them and I’m sure they will provide you with what you need.
It’s all conjecture.Boro were never huge sellers of merchandise, we only sold in the stores until we went online. I can well believe we are selling more now than back in those days due to worldwide shipping.
