Robbie Savage gets in an Argument on the Radio

[Neil Young]

I don't believe it was Savage.

Anyone buying seven pairs of shoes at the same time is obviously a twa...



Oh.

[Shanks]

When was the last time you bought 7 pairs of trainers then..

[Neil Young]

That was his point..

If you went in to a sports shop in Wilmslow and picked 7 styles, in a size 9 for eg.
I almost guarantee they would not have all of those 7 available in that size on that day..

I'm speaking from experience..

Are you really suggesting most trainers shops don't stock seven pairs of trainers in the same size?

[Lee]

What's all this furore???

[Shanks]

Are you really suggesting most trainers shops don't stock seven pairs of trainers in the same size?

Yep...

They may stock them but they won't always have them..
Most of the small stores only carry around 2 of each size.

I was in JJB Southport the other day and wanted a pair of astros..

I asked for three different styles in a size 9 and they didn't have any of them..

Depending on what day and time you go in, you might get lucky.

I don't believe the Savage story personally..



The discussions on here eh!

[Neil Young]

Your argument is interesting but I think doesn't really prove anything either way. As you say yourself, they might have seven pairs in one size but then again they might not.

How many pairs of trainers does a shop stock? There are, what, 7 adult sizes for men, 7 for women? To have seven pairs in a size, that's less than one hundred pairs of trainers in the shop, plus kids sizes.

I tend to disbelieve the story too because of how vehemently Savage denies it.

I'm going into town in a bit, where I will venture into Size? and ask them "if I wanted seven pairs of trainers in a size 11, would you be able to oblige?"

[IN_RAFA_WE_TRUST]

Ahahaha shaggy.just do it.

[Shaggy]

I'm deadly serious.

I'll be interested in your findings...
Weren't they supposed to be all white though?

Good idea.

I think we should all do it. One result proves nothing - if everyone does it we might have a reasonably sized data set.

It would also mean between us we can cover a range of sizes without looking like we're mystery stocktakers/shoe obsessives.

If I get into town this afternoon I'll do it too.

Just tried this. I swanned into Boots and asked them if they had 7 boxes of size XXL condoms for my massive dong. They told me Robbie Savage has just bought the last 7 packs. He's ****ing everywhere

Clearly.

[Darth Marty]

I went into my local sports shop and asked for 7 pairs of trainers in size 10 and they couldnt oblige.

1-0 to savage.
