      New LFC Superstore Opening
      May 23, 2008 07:37:28 am
      Get your money ready to line the pockets of H&G  ;)

      http://www.liverpoolfc.tv/news/drilldown/N160022080522-0940.htm

      It's set to be a paradise for Liverpool fans – the biggest official club shop anywhere in Europe.
      The new LFC Superstore will open its doors on South John Street in the city centre for the first time on May 29.
       
      With 10,000sq feet of quality Reds merchandise, it promises to be the ultimate shopping experience for any Kopite.
       
      An iconic spiral staircase and unique heritage wall will make the shop stand out from anything you'll see at other Premier League stores.
       
      There's a personalisation zone where fans can make LFC merchandise their own within the blink of an eye, with mugs, t-shirts, jigsaws and much more waiting for your personal stamp.
       
      As if all this wasn't enough, the shop contains a chill-out zone where Kopites can battle it out with Anfield Roaders at table football.
       
      George Davies, the man behind Next, George and per una, has masterminded the project with his company S'porter
       
      He said: "My heart and head is always in Liverpool. I am a true Reds fan, as was my father, and it was one of the greatest days of my life when I started working with the football club.
       
      "The new LFC Superstore will be truly revolutionary for the high street and for Liverpool. We have used cutting edge design and technology to make this store a unique shopping experience. I am proud that Liverpool will be getting one of the most exciting store concepts that I have ever worked on.
       
      "From casual vintage-inspired polos to cool cut sweatshirts, sports goods to souvenirs, there is something for everyone."
       
      The store will be one of the first to open within the new Liverpool One complex.
       
      To celebrate the opening, which takes place at 10am next Thursday, there will be a special prize draw promotion where Liverpool fans can win tickets to the directors' box, stadium tours, signed merchandise and gift vouchers. The prize draw leaflets will be available from the store. Alternatively, you can click on the links below for an online form. Just print out your copy and bring it to the store to enter.
       
      There'll also be some top secret Liverpool legends in-store from 10am to 2pm. A special zone will be created with sofas and screens, where people will be able to take part in a Nintendo Wii Football Challenge against one of the legends to win a special prize.

      Sounds like it's going to be great! About time we actually opened something to rival the rest of the top clubs in Europe, only good thing H&G have done so far (but we had better wait and see if it gets built first ;))

      Since it's opening in 4 days, I'm hoping it might actually be built.

      Might have to go down at some point during the summer and get some merchandise.

      Went in the new store this morning. Not many people in there and have to admit I was pretty underwhelmed with the store. A nice staircase but that was about it. Two floors of extortionality priced t-shirts and all the new home kit - and some new machines that allow you to decide what name you can have on the back of your shirt (and pay more money!).

      To be honest I find there are better quality and lower priced LFC gear on the internet.

      Just my opinion  ::)

      I was in there this morning as well :D Did I see you Molby 86 :laugh:

      I wasn't overly impressed, in fact I prefer the store at Anfield, I suppose there was more room but nothing much different to what I've already seen, I was talking to a guy who had come over from Sweden (to the Paul McCartney concert) but was also a big Liverpool fan, he had armfuls of stuff and must have spent a fortune, I spent £60 odd quid, but didn't seem to have a lot to show for it ::)

      I'm sure it will do well though.

      I've been in the shop and it looks boss. I don't take the same viewpoint though that we're lining the pockets of those greedy b***ard yanks. I prefer to look at it that we're showing support to Benitez and the players. It's not their fault who's running the club so they still deserve our full backing. I was never in favour of the proposed boycotting of matches for the same reason. The players deserve our support and we should show it in any way possible, if that means having the number 9 and the name Torres on the back of your new shirt then so be it.

      Was down by the store in Liverpool One yesterday.

      Fascinating that opposite is the Sports Direct store.  Even more strange is that Sports Direct haven't got Liverpool shirts in their window - especially as they are selling the home for £25 (£15 cheaper) and the away for £35 (£5 cheaper).  You have to go right in to the downstairs Sports Direct to find all the Liverpool shirts.

      What do you think about that? Do you think the official LFC store have put some pressure on Sports Direct?

      Amazes me to see people walk out of the official store with shirts when about 20 yards away they could have saved themselves some dosh. Ah well.

      Interesting, and you're probably right.

      If they're selling them cheaper you'd think they'd have the wondows full of them, maybe the club has threatened to stop supplying them or something?

      In retrospect I should have done that. Bought from Sports Direct and then got the numbering done at the store.

      Then again it's something I've always done since I was about 5 - I used to make a trip to Anfield to get the new shirt. It's just kind of stuck with me and I now seem to buy from the store in Liverpool One because it's more convienient.

      Yeah it is strange, but then there's also an Adidas store just downstairs from it where the away shirt is in the window - though it's a similar price in there to the official store.

      25 quid for the home shirt? That's not bad is it? Even with only a year before it's changed. That's unless the next home shirt is going to be radically changed.

      Yeah especially when you consider the away shirt is going at 40 quid. And its only for one season.

      If they're selling them cheaper you'd think they'd have the wondows full of them, maybe the club has threatened to stop supplying them or something?

      Weird.

      It wouldn't surprise me if Liverpool have told Sports Direct not to promote it opposite the official club store or they would threaten to stop them selling it.
