I use to pop in when I shopped at Morrisons next door. It's all crap trust me. Best willow was a recoil with an artificial face, the rest was kashmir. Mainly kooks, GM 303's and the odd adidas plank. No bargains at jjb this year.

il probably just take your word for it
they look like planks tbh in the picture, but theres loads of them so thought could be something decent lurking under it all somewhere

a few more than when I last went in lol. I did get a text beginning of the week from a mate saying they have load of bargains, but he didn't buy anything so that probably says it all.

I see a few kahuna t20/big kahunas there, probably don't get any better than that though.

this is a great example of why JJB have gone bust.
1.This shop has clearly over ordered stock
2. They have ordered stock that their customers don't want
3. they haven't looked after their stock to keep it in the best possible condition
4. how can a punter who hasn't got hours to spend possibly sift through that mess.
5. it is possible that at the bottom of that pile are some top end bats, but who will ever find them...!

I also note that the JJB sports website now takes you to the sports direct website...

that's not the shop's stock. It had about 20 naff kashmir kooks whenever I went in. Looks like all the yorkshire stock or warehouse stock has been dumped into one JJB for selling.
