Blackburn Rovers take back club shop

4:42pm Friday 9th May 2008

comment Comments (36)   Have your say »


BLACKBURN Rovers have taken over responsibility for the retail operation at Ewood Park.

Sports World International has held the retailing franchise for the past four years.

Tom Finn, Rovers' managing director, said: "I am sure this news will be welcomed by our supporters as it will provide us with the opportunity to reintroduce a range of club-branded products within our retail operation.

"We have been fully aware of frustrations among our fans, but we are now looking forward with renewed confidence."

Mr Finn stressed that it would take some time for the club to re-brand and re-stock the shop and asked for supporters' patience during this process.

He added: "We are going to need our fans to bear with us and it is likely that the shop will close for refitting at some stage during the close season."

Details of the official re-launch - expected to tie in with the arrival of the new club kit - will be announced soon.

isn't sports world owned by mike ashley chairman of the barcodes. Thank god we,ve reclaimed it this will prevent ashley from lining his fat wallet off the back of Rovers. We can now forge forward and have some quality goods and line our own club pocket.

Mixed feelings for me realy, I remember when the clubshop used to have loads of club branded stuff (ties mini-kits etc) and i'll be glad to see all that bk, I just hop people buy it and it doesnt turn out 2 b a waste of money for them. I always feel a bit sad for Rovers when i go to the clubshop this sort of stage of the season and there virtually throwing stuff out.

On a positive note i do agree with all the above comments, it will be nice to get some decent rovers merchandise.

Your club shop sales have been poor for the past 10years thats why Sports World took over in the first place.
Blackburn once ordered 100.000 Uhlsport shirts and sold less that 40.000.
The rest they gave away to schools who visited the study support centre.
Newcastle dont need Rovers money through sales of merchandise.
NUFC have loads of clubs shops including thier own brand and are the 3rd highest Premiership shirt seller behind Man United and Liverpool.
So dont try the bar codes thing and you worry about the Posh ha ha ha

Hi all,

south shields why don't you stick with your own clubs pages and have never heard so much rubbish before where's your evidence that we ordered 100,000 shirts and sold only 40,000? & don't make me laugh you lot are the 3rd highest shirt seller what drugs are you on this week? if you make so much dosh from your shirts that is why Ashley is thinking of selling up sports world because they are doing so well and also that is why so many BRFC fans have complained to Ashley about their club shop and I suppose that is why one bloke who went into sports world lillywhites in london picc. circus wanted to buy football gear and came out with a suitcase as he said it was a pathetic excuse of a shop so all these complaints I suppose make them the highest shirt seller don't make me laugh!

Savio, i worked at Ewood for 5 years before i moved back here.
The shirts where kept in a huge storage area known as the "archives" in the Jack Walker stand.
And as far as football shirts sales go the stats where taken from 442 magazine at christmas so i guess a sports publication was wrong aswell.
Mike Ashley may well be selling Sports World but i guess his shares in NIKE have nothing to do with that.
If you cup your hands and say please he may throw the pathetic 25 million that Rovers need to buy the tiny club.

Wilky, BLACKPOOL says...

oi howay, make ur mind up. u either have 50000 or you're the 3rd biggest shirt sellers!

ashley bought u lot coz u needed the bloody money so dont talk out of ur anus bout being one of the big boys as ur poxy flimsy team aint!

I dont think Rovers want your money Savio but the 6 points you sent Rovers this season were much appreciated.
When you've won jack sh*t since Adam was a lad maybe it would be best to stay quiet.

Sorry Howay, it was only a joke. We all know the differences between the two clubs, on and off the field, whether positive or negative.

You know that I have a soft spot for both clubs.

I'll be back soon as Manager of the 'Toon' and will lead you to some silverware (unless I start my managerial career at Ewood,when Sparky has gone to Old Trafford)!

Take care!

Touched a nerve have i t!t head?
Your not even a proper Rovers fan sitting in the Rioverside with all the other cut price cheap skates.
When i worked at Ewood the only time you filled your ground was when you played Unioted, Liverpool, Newcastle and even Burnley!
Even the Clarets put bums on your seats.
Pitty the current crop of players cant attract crowds!
Who's pathetic now.
Weve got an exciting summer now being linked with all kind of big name stars, some we may get some we'l never get but at least its excitement for the fans.
After all your huffing and puffing you've finished a few places above us and your STILL not guaranteed Europe ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!
Hope your summer of trying to hold onto Bentley and Santa Cruz is enjoyable.
Pathetic little club with poor support sssssssssssssshhhhhh
hhhhhhhhhhhhh its quiet at Theewood!

I find it laughable that you're slating Rovers for being pathetic. Yes, we are smaller in comparison to the toon. But at least we are able to go more than two weeks without the club's management going into turmoil.

well i remember it almost did when you lot came on this website when Hughes wanted the Toon job!
You were even on the Chronicle Web pages checking out what was happening ha ha ha
The Mags didnt want Hughes because what has he ever achieved?
Nothing!
Dalglish gave you your glory many many years ago!
Hughes wanted away from Rovers and when asked by the LET he still refused to commit to Rovers until he knew he was not wanted by Big Mike! ha ha what a Welsh laughing stock!
I could hear half the sheep p!ssing thier sides laughing!
Well never mind he may still get the Man United job (in his gray haired dreams)
ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha i look at Rovers and smile because these are your good times at the minute, you wont get better than this where as we can only get better, 10 weeks ago bookies had us 3-1 to go down and KK said we'l finish level with Spurs and well look at the league now.
Spend a bit in summer and we'l be juuuuuuusst fine!

Great news the club are taking over the club shop again.They should never have franchised it out to sports world in the first place,how much money must they have lost in merchandise sales over the last four years?.I know we aren't one of the most fashionable clubs in England but surely we must have a big enough fan base worldwide by now, to be able to sustain one small club shop, if it is marketed properly.The club need to plug the fact,like Celtic do,that all profits made are put straight back into team strengthening.We need to become the peoples club of Lancashire,its good that season ticket sales are already up on last season.

Howay, Daglish acheived with us, didn't with you!

Souness even acheived with us (Carling Cup) but didn't with you!

You've had numerous managers that I care not too mention (apart from Sir Bobby, who achieved all over the Europe), but still couldn't win anything with you!

The problem with your club and the money you throw about, is that your club is always badly run, from the top to the bottom!

We have little finances and little crowds but we always acheive more than you, year in, year out!

YOU ARE A POISENED CHALICE!

You should show us a little bit more respect!

What did Freddie Shepherd say "all your geordie women are ugly" or sumthing wasnt it. That was p1ss funny made all you geordies cry.

Have you ever won anything? Im not takin the p1ss I honestly cant remember.

I liked Tino Asprilla cos it was funny watching him there when u gave Man Utd back your 100 point lead or sumthing like that. Every team in the premiership laughed at you that year and its just got funnyer and funnyer.

I got a bit nervous when you got Big Sam in cos he's class but luckily you replaced him with easily the worst manager in the league KK. Id even have Paul Jewell over him anyday.

How many points have u taken from us this year. And how many points above us are you at the moment ive forgotten.

In fairness tho you do sell alot more shirts and tickets than we do, but if its all the same i'll keep the fact were alot better than you if thats ok.

Talk as much about crowds , money and managers as you want. The simple facts are u win nothing despite spending a fortune every year.
We win things and finish above you year in year out with little or no money spent (3.8mill last year).
The reason everyone else hates toon is coz of the pratts like you who think you deserve success. No one deserves success, you have to earn it. Your players are all big time charlies who dont produce.
duff- brill at rovers , crap at toon
smith- brill at mu , crap at toon
the only class player you had was shearer and even his brilliance couldnt pull your average team into winning somat.
Go home and cry again, toon army? more like toon barmy or loony toons.

Dalglish did a Chelsea in 1992 bought the league.
Thats when your crowds rose from 9.000 to 20.000 in just over a year.
Souness did well for you but still gets slated for his efforts.
He's always done a decent job at smaller clubs but what did he win with Liverpool and Us?
Carling Cup is no massive feat!
Look how you did against Coventry, my oh my thats just embarrassing!
We drew away with Prem new boys Stoke then Hammered them at home.
Rovers have had bags of luck this season James missing his first game for Pompey is just an example but the next few years will tell a different story.
Look at the current form guide, if we could have another 10 games we'd fly past you in the league.
Its a shame KK wasnt in post at the end of last season because we'd definately be in the top 5!!!
Howay the lads!

Secondly the factthat you come from Wrexham and pretend to support Blackburn makes me laugh even more ha ha ha ha
Thanks for cheering me up ha ha ha ha
Cracking that and as for Fat Freddie ha ha ha ha ha we enjoyed wasting his fat cash it brought us a few good CHAMPIONS LEAGUE victorys unlike Rovers "Larissa" ha haha ha ha what a pi ss take, Coventry ha ha ha ha even worse!!

We win things and finish above you year in year out with little or no money spent (3.8mill last year). The reason everyone else hates toon is coz of the pratts like you who think you deserve success. No one deserves success, you have to earn it. Your players are all big time charlies who dont produce. duff- brill at rovers , crap at toon smith- brill at mu , crap at toon the only class player you had was shearer and even his brilliance couldnt pull your average team into winning somat. Go home and cry again, toon army? more like toon barmy or loony toons. ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha ha
Your 100% correct in you have won more than us in the last 20 years but dont let things go to your head.
You have won 2 trophies in donkeys and you did "buy" the Prem 15 years ago (yes its a long time ago now)
the fact is your now one of the small boys in this league.
You will be behind the likes of us, Spurs, West Ham this time next year.
Even the **** Mackems will be above you next year!! and they are scum of the earth.
Im happy being a Mag and so are all the other Toon fans from across the world.
You guys just sit tight put your hands together and pray that Bentley and Cruz dont get picked up, i can smell the fear from here ha ha!

Still a Prem team though.
every dog has its day.
We outclassed you at home this season but Owen never had his shooting boots on and we were punished but the possotive was we tore your defence apart.
Role on next season cant wait to unleash the Toon on you with KK's new formula, the goal machine!!

Your club shop sales have been poor for the past 10years thats why Sports World took over in the first place. Blackburn once ordered 100.000 Uhlsport shirts and sold less that 40.000. The rest they gave away to schools who visited the study support centre. Newcastle dont need Rovers money through sales of merchandise. NUFC have loads of clubs shops including thier own brand and are the 3rd highest Premiership shirt seller behind Man United and Liverpool. So dont try the bar codes thing and you worry about the Posh ha ha ha
All geordies are slightly rhetarded. Its not their fault its genetic. If a geordie shags a horse the horse has a pony. They are basically really stupid Scottish people (i know, i know, thats pretty stupid). People from Newcastle make me laugh just looking at them. Ha ha ha ha ha ha. Stupid unemployed scrubber geordies ha h ah ha

Geordies seem to miss the obvious difference between the two clubs.
Newcastle,population 259.000.
Blackburn,population 137.000.
Percentage wise,blackburn are probably the better supported club,and most certainly are the better run club.

dosent really matter who outclassed who, but you still lost and over the 2 games blackburn scored 4 goals, and took 6 points from you, and derby are a championship team, they have been bottom of the prem for weeks, and haveonly one once and that was a win over newcastle
