So as an older dude, I love the old Adidas samba - played-5-a-side in them and had the different versions.

 

Was going to buy a new pair for the first time in a long time but it seems SD only stock them and not JD.

 

Is this just because I’m a dinosaur that wants shit no-one else does or does SD have a specific deal?

 

only asking as I won’t buy from SD on principle 

 

You're in Australia? JD and Hype DC definitely sell Sambas, as do the Adidas Originals stores, if there's one near you.

As much as I don't like Ashley, I don't like the clubs strategy here at all to have a single retailer selling them.  Tells me they want to rip off people.

Is it not more Adidas? irrespective of the specifics of Newcastle, both Nike and Adidas have a clear strategy of selling more and more of their products through their own channels. In many ways mirroring Sports Direct who also produced and sold their own products (Donna, Everlast, Dunlop, etc.).

Never seen the older version here

Obvs I want the fat cunt to kark asap but I resigned myself to the knowledge his fat fingers aren't in our till anymore. 

That's why I popped into his tat shop for a pair of Adidas trainers. Got a lush pair of baseball efforts. Black & white, obvs. 

Used to love Sambas, being weapons of choice for 5 a side, back in the day. 

 

As an aside I've only ever seen Fat Mike & Tory Starmer wearing shitty, baggy jeans when they could both afford better. Scruffy cunts

It will be like that time he was filmed filling petrol into someone used Kia picanto. 
 

there will be some unpaid intern who’s walking around barefoot so he could convince us he’s normal.

I still can’t believe there would be 51,000 people willing to buy our shirt from there. 
 

Unless they go abroad where people have less choice. 
 

I had a look the other day and there stuff is still more than castores current sale

Would be simply awful if he pissed off adidas to such an extent they withdrew their entire fucking range from his tatty hovels. Then subsequently the share price tumbled and the turnover reduced significantly. Then Nike etc followed suit

Would be even more awful if he died and we could have the street parties we deserve.

Didn’t he order a million quid of hi tec stock then cancel the order when it arrived or something.

 

Thus creating the situation he is in with no one prepared to offer him anything latest or high end in his stores.

 

Everything is low end products and old lines. 
 

The place is a fucking shit hole.
