Having seen the shirt on the website and social media, the logo contains the words Bognor Regis & Shripney Road underneath it. Should that not be London Road & Shripney Road, where the two branches are based? Or why not just generalise the two branches and just put Bognor Regis underneath? Bognor Regis & Shripney Road makes it look a bit naff if I’m honest.

I agree it's OK until you get to Shripney Road, looks really weird only thing missing are the post codes.

Well, well, well, Specsavers. My wife and I used to go to their shop but no more ! The last time I went I wanted a simple change to my order, but they refused. Bad customer service. So now they have the brass neck to sponsor The Rocks. Wonders will never cease . Do we really care? A major company paying good money to be involved with the club. This is about Bognor football club, not you !!!

So now they have the brass neck to sponsor The Rocks. Wonders will never cease . Been thinking more and more about your stupid comment. Many people in the club work very hard to raise funds to keep our football club going. How do you think any sponsors feel when they come onto our forum and see a comment like that? If you really are a Bognor fan, like you claim please don't hide behind a football club forum to voice any grievance you may have. Basically grow a pair and contact the company direct in future!!! Like I said IF you are a true fan, however with the stupidity that comes out of your mouth every time you open it I feel there is every likely hood that you belong to a club up the road, and not the Rocks😡😡😡

Dead right, cityboy. Even though I believe people should be free to write what they like on the forum, I have come to the conclusion that Barry is either a parody account, an idiot or, in view of his latest comment, a referee (God help us). BTW, based on my several years experience of them, local Specsavers are a first class outfit with excellent customer service.

Having read your post several times now, l am at a loss to understand your gripe !! You make no mention of how long ago it was but consumer rights have been around for years. The “simple change to your order” was obviously not covered for whatever reason. Specsavers have been Sponsoring the Rocks for 5 years in different ways but it is only now, when we have managed to land one of the biggest sponsorship deals, if not the biggest, that you come onto our Forum and come out with your “drivvle” !!! Cityboy,and kof had already posted and the majority of Rocks true fans would agree, Specsavers have been very good to us but l hope comments like yours doesn’t put them off nor prospective advertisers and Sponsors !!!

So now they have the brass neck to sponsor The Rocks. Wonders will never cease . Ive worked as a volunteer for this club for more years than I can remember. Ive seen some horrific posts put up on this board, especially in times when things were really hard at the club, but this post takes the biscuit. My first thoughts were that it was a complete p..s take but on reading it the second time I couldn't quite believe what has been written. Here we are, a small football club in global terms, where volunteer staff has managed to negotiate a sponsorship with a big company and this person has maybe damaged it in one stroke of a pen. WTF? I make no apology for this post nor the way ive written it. I cant think of anything in all my time at this club where anything has made me seriously so angry. This is an open board where people have the freedom to write what they want, but come on. How can anyone write something so damaging? It makes me question what we are all trying to achieve

That's good news statto all we need now are some games to watch to take our minds away from some of the awful things happening at the moment. Certainly don't envy Robbie & Jamie must be very stressful trying to put a team together unlike years ago when the team stayed largely the same from season to season.

Oscar Wilde said that "the only one thing in life worse than being talked about is not being talked about", basically saying any publicity is good publicity.
I hope Specsavers see it that way and well done to them for sponsoring the club and man of the match and website player of the month and all their support over the years.Also well done to all those who brokered the deal. It is great to have a high street name involved with he club albeit on London Road and Shripney Road.
I will make sure as tannoy announcer that their name is broadcast loud and proud around the club every game, Also i shall take the opportunity to get a pair of glasses from SPECSAVERS as it has been said to me at work when reading the tiny writing on receipts and vouchers that I "SHOULD HAVE GONE TO SPECSAVERS". i am having to read these posts with a magnifying glass now so I am long overdue. This sponshorship is the final prod I have needed. COME ON YOU ROCKS AND SPECSAVERS !

How in heavens name does Barry get his jollies coming on here and writing such utter tripe. The only good thing is that I see he claims to have left this forum. That remains to be seen. I suspect we haven't heard the last of him in one guise or another.

I would imagine Barry has had time to think about what he wrote and maybe reflected on it. I also hope he reflects on his decision and comes back on here and normality returns.

Strikes me Barry comes on here to wind folks up and he does. I had the misfortune once to work in a cold call sales operation. The manager was Welsh and HIS name was Barry and his favorite saying was 'Exciting Times'. Nothing wrong with that, other than it has stuck with me because when I have something to look forward to I always say exciting times.
