| Quote ="Barry Clegg 2nd"Yes the club got early proofs im sure and when they saw how massive the necks where they said great lets go! Maybe just maybe the club got proofs of the shirts that where of excellent quality and when the delivery finally turns up at the club that is when it would have been spotted, but due to the fact the shirts must be out when demanded by some of the loons that call themselves fans otherwise the club is in terminal decline and its all Ted/Di's/Richards fault (Delete as applicable or blame all 3).
My guess is by the time this would have been noticed the shirts would have been due out and the uproar it would have caused for them not being available for xmas would have been worse than a few skinny geeks moaning about wide necks.
You buy a shirt from town, you get it home and try it on there is a problem,
what do you do, do you:
1) Whinge and moan to anyone who will listen even though once you have finished bleating you still have same problem or
2) Take shirt back to said shop and ask for a replacement/refund.
Not rocket science people, gutted for you that they are not right i really am but fro gods sake take them back rather than moaning on here.
9 years in the forces listening to officers moan about lack of this, that and the other, yet as soon as anyone important would visit camp thousands would be spent on papering over the cracks to make the inspection go well. Had thos cracks not been papered over then things maybe would change for good rather than a week. Same can be said for this issue, if you are not happy feel free to moan but do it to the right people.'"
I started this thread not to moan old boy, but to get some feedback on what other fans thought about the fitting. I know if I had just taken them back I would have had the old classic they are intended to be like that. I needed other posters views on it to get a better understanding of their thoughts on how the shirts are made.
I also do not blame the club, I blame ProStar, but imho they are wrongly constructed at the scale stage of the manufacture.
I think if we did not moan, or air our views on here what would be the point of a forum ? just to say wow aint life great, aint we all happy, aint Wakefield the jewel of the north ? The whole idea of forums are to try to keep on thread if at all possible, but to have that ever declining trait we call freedom of speech and opinion.
I also did 9 years in the Army, and in the parachute regiment we just got on with it no matter what they through at us, no doubt paper over cracks was for craphats   |

To answer the original 'question' posed....I agree. I am a size 18 neck and the neck on both my home and away shirts is way too big, as is my lads. But I will keep both because I want a Wakey shirt to wear and have no choice. That's not to say that I am happy with it, but what can I do? Some people should realise that a forum is for expressing views and opinions, otherwise what's the point  |

yes it is to express opinions on which i have done. It is my opinion that if the shirts are of bad quality take them back for an exchange instead of bleating like stuck pigs. Or is it just people who moan who are entitled to an opinion!

I'd appreciate it if you didn't compare me to a farm animal!! I assure you that you wouldn't be so rude in person, so please refrain from doing it on here. It was your goodself that inferred that people that moan should just not bother posting |

who is bleating ? people on here are just talking about their observations re the shirt fitting, you are the one who looks like its bothering you ! 
I know one thing, my kids need necks like Mike Tyson, and the head the size of a 50 bob cabbage to make it fit. |

| Quote ="i8no-one"I totally love the design of the new shirt, and that is why I am gutted at the standard of the neck on my kids shirts just bought for xmas. The medium youth shirt has a xlarge adult opening, and only looks anything like with a thermal or t shirt under it, and without it looks like a prop from the film boogie nights.
I dont at all blame the club, the design was done at pro star, but the neck opening is massive and looks total crap, and in my oppinion as not been scaled down in the manufaturing process from adult to kids.
This shirt unfortunatley will look shocking in the summer during hot days, and its a real shame as imho its the best design we have had in many years, and thats why I am so cheesed off.
The shirt looked very poor yesterday on every small shirt I saw, andon a lot of medium and small adult shirts too
I am more than interested to know if anyone else out there have the same oppinion as me that these shirts are simply designed wrong in the neck area, and look very poor.'"
I totally agree, the shirts are oversized and it really lets the club down to be honest.
Having to trail back to the shop, which I've not done yet is a ball-ache but has to be done. I got Adult Large, XL Boys and XS boys. The XS boys is too large but the smallest they do.
They ought to have this sorted with Pro-star or ask for a rebate from what they paid and pass it on to us.
The necks, well Its been said and i agree 100%, ridiculous |
