better than all the rest 153 Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 It was just on the news there that the company is now in serious trouble after they failed to get new investment to revamp its stores and they lost another major investor over a profit warning.Looks like we got out just in time not sure if they are due us money for merchandise sales or not.

quabba 440 Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 I didn' think we got cash of them for shirt sales, was the £18m up front not to cover that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

iang2911 423 Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 I didn' think we got cash of them for shirt sales, was the £18m up front not to cover that.The deal was £18Million up front and a MINIMUM of £3Million per year depending on sales. The reason it was a poor deal eventually was that they whole heartedly failed to promote the brand and so never paid any more than the £3Million.

better than all the rest 153 Posted August 30, 2012 Author Share Posted August 30, 2012 That's the staement Sports clothing and equipment chain JJB Sports has put itself up for sale after it failed to raise new funds to help revamp its stores.JJB also warned shareholders that any rescue deal may see their holdings in the company rendered worthless.In July, JJB said that sales had deteriorated owing to poor weather and weak demand for replica football kits during the European Championships.The Wigan-based retailer has 180 stores and employs about 4,000 people.Hurt by the economic downturn, it has also struggled to compete with rival Sports Direct.JJB said that in the six weeks to 26 August, like-for-like sales had fallen by 3.3% Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Normal Sports Direct prices?The club now owns that store but I doubt they'd undercut their commercial partner. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
