On a positive note, I haven’t bought a shirt since the rebrand, so the fact I’m buying a shirt this season shows the great strides the club and Vincent Tan himself has made to reconnect with the fans, although Warnock has obviously played a massive factor with this as well.

How is the club shop selling out of shirts a shambles surely that means there doing there job well.

It's a shambles because it's clearly a distinct lack of planning and organisation on the prediction of future sales.
If you was a patient in a hospital and the department said they don't have your treatment in stock because they have run out, meaning your health and life would be put at risk, would you think that department are doing their job well?

Ross, all a bit harsh there, surely?
The club estimated shirt sales (possibly based on previous seasons plus an expected uptake) and bought accordingly. The fans came, they saw, they liked and they bought...early!
Club sells out, orders more to meet increased demand and those who delayed their purchase have to wait a little...
Exciting season ahead for the Bluebirds and people want to show their association. It's not been like that for some years and (all joking about bandwagon jumpers apart) I'm actually happy to see it...
Hopefully, you'll get one before the season starts and all will be good in the world

I'm not bothered if I get my shirt before the season starts, I'm bothered about how amateurish this is. I doubt any other Premiership club has ever run out of shirts to this extent and let's be honest, this isn't the first time something like this has happened at the club.
I've said how positive it is shirts are selling, but the club clearly haven't planned ahead properly. Early indications showed the kit would be popular before the kit launch weekend. We are now back in the Premiership. There is the feel good factor with promotion and Warnock bringing the club back together. Season ticket sales have gone through the roof. It was pretty obvious we would sell a lot more shirts than previous seasons.
I'm stunned the club haven't played safe and ordered more than enough not to run out. The club could have easily slashed the price of the shirts later in the season to sell off any leftovers. I find it totally incredible to be honest.
