Romey 1878 Posted September 17, 2011 Report Share Posted September 17, 2011 (edited) http://www.evertonfc...-printed-shirts Nice gesture. But I'm not really sure why you need proof of purchase to get the refund when you can only get the shirts from Everton through Kitbag anyway? Plus, a lot of people will have these got shirts a while ago and will have got rid of their receipts.

Louis Posted September 17, 2011 Report Share Posted September 17, 2011 Those with a Yakubu on their shirt must be gutted. It's a welcome initiative, although the pessimist in me says it's a publicity stunt for Bill Kenwright ahead of today's game. They've had over two weeks to arrange this but it's announced the day before a game, plus usually it'd be announced that the club are refunding shirts, not the chairman.

I'm glad you said it and I didn't have to, because I'd just get called cynical because I'm anti-board . I was already expecting we'd see his face up on the big screen again this week for another boo/cheer episode, now it's nailed on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubecula Posted September 17, 2011 Report Share Posted September 17, 2011 Those with a Yakubu on their shirt must be gutted. How many of those are there? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MTK Posted September 17, 2011 Report Share Posted September 17, 2011 It's a good gesture and not every club would do it - I do think it's part of a PR drive though. The proof of purchase seems unnecessary in the circumstances - it wouldn't surprise me if they actually refund without it. The alternative could be a load of angry fans saying that the gesture is meaningless Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hafnia Posted September 17, 2011 Report Share Posted September 17, 2011 Refunding shirts with names on hmmmm not sure. Call me mad but anyone who puts a players name on the back of the shirt does so out of emotional attachment, it's their choice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Matt Posted September 17, 2011 Report Share Posted September 17, 2011 Those with a Yakubu on their shirt must be gutted. Those who did should probably seek help, he was never going to play for us again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kohen Posted September 17, 2011 Report Share Posted September 17, 2011 Those who did should probably seek help, he was never going to play for us again. :D:D Proof of purchase is probably required because a lot of people wont have it. Less shirts to refund, but gesture is still there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeO Posted September 17, 2011 Report Share Posted September 17, 2011 Proof of purchase is probably required because a lot of people wont have it. But as Mark said earlier you can't buy them anywhere else so surely the fact you've got one is proof of purchase in itself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kohen Posted September 17, 2011 Report Share Posted September 17, 2011 But as Mark said earlier you can't buy them anywhere else so surely the fact you've got one is proof of purchase in itself. Exactly. I haven't kept the receipt for my shirt so I wouldn't be able to get a refund. Unless you could use a bank statement or something as proof, I dunno.
