summerof69 Posted January 9, 2016 Share Posted January 9, 2016 http://www.theguardian.com/business/2016/jan/08/sports-direct-issues-profit-warning-poor-christmas-sales SD only gets 10% from its revenue of online sales, compared to 40% for John Lewis according to this. Surprised by that. Also surprised to see JD Sports has been outperforming them lately. Could his luck be turning? doesn't he own part of JD, too ?

Surprised by that. Also surprised to see JD Sports has been outperforming them lately. Could his luck be turning? Apparently Ashley messed up with online sales when he added a delivery charge to your order even when you pick it up in store, he was advised not to do it but did it anyway Saw that mentioned on a 'deals' website I use, before christmas. SD.com charged £4 or £5 delivery to click and collect from store, but then gave you a £5 voucher to spend instore... so he clearly hoped people would then go back and buy stuff in one of his jumble sales.

beardsleymagic Posted January 10, 2016 Share Posted January 10, 2016 This is when the Ashleyout campaign needs to ramp shit up. Although the campaign by itself probably won't shift him, the negative press and scrutiny this type of thing brings with it could. The national media seems to be making a beeline for sports direct (about time!) and any extra negative press about him and Newcastle could see it's shareholders put pressure on Ashley to cut ties. I know it's a very long shot but howay man I'm desperate here!!!!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it's a very long shot but howay man I'm desperate here!!!!! The grief that lot got from our own fans and how they were mocked despite being correct every step of the way, i'd be amazed if they bothered. Our fans are happy with being mediocre as much as the fat man is it seems. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
