Mariner stuff not worthy of a whole thread

Have the roar got our kit supplier now? And is that Australia Cup kit of theirs the worst thing ever or is that AI piss taking

They have our kit supplier. I already warned them about the sizing issues.

I'm a bit more curious about the arrangement CCM have with Cikers as kit suppliers now that the Roar are using them as well.

A few people did some further reading after they were announced for CCM, and it appears like the Mariners have a franchise model within Australia. CCM registered the website domain, their address is COE and even their phone number is the CCM contact number. It appeared there might have been some kind of equity arrangement, but that's just speculation.

What becomes curious is that now Brisbane Roar are using Cikers as kit and merchandise supplier, so if CCM are franchisees (or similar), does that effectively mean that CCM are the kit suppliers for Brisbane Roar?
Could Brisbane's deal be a revenue source for CCM?

Speculation welcome!

Ideally this "does that effectively mean that CCM are the kit suppliers for Brisbane Roar?
Could Brisbane's deal be a revenue source for CCM?"

I’d suggest the Roar have the same arrangement as us, effectively you control your own kit. Would just be their business model and whoever signs up gets a separate franchise.

Yes. That's exactly what it means

Shipping from the cheap arse Chinese factory via sea takes a long time!

Cost cutting hitting an all time high when each player is seen wearing 10 shirts back to save on baggage costs.

Temu does it pretty quick but then I think they might have Aussie warehouses?

They might want to dial down the notifications a bit though - Nearly as much spam as CCM FB

. I know there has been a bit of talk about the difficult to guess sizing ... but at this rate nothing will fit by the time it arrives anyway - if it arrives

Pay peanuts get monkeys sadly

 

[bikinigirl]

this is completely out of hand .

. maybe it's all just a marketing ploy

. have all this winning merchandise arrive just before the next season kicks off

... and if it doesn't fit, can be handed off to a third party to pique their interest (which will be far less painful so many months after forgetting how much was paid)

. i'm pretty sure none of us paid peanuts for the stuff we don't yet have ... in fact, I don't even know of anybody that was able to claim their members discount
