shirts.... they were able to put the number & name on their shirts & of

-< Squad shirt numbers next season >-
I'd be a bit miffed if I bought a shirt for my hero who played at number 7, say,
and found out next year his number was 10! ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Fingers crossed it doesn't get introduced into the pyramid leagues.
In most cases the shirts and printing will cost more than the player.
For teams on a small budget attempting to get their grounds into league
condition this will be a pain in the ar#e, the money is better spent
on ground improvement.

'Rip off'? What rip off! You don't HAVE to buy the shirts! If you
really want to keep up to date get a life size photo!
Why does everyone equate 'squad numbers' with attempts to rip off
supporters? There is no connection!
(Sorry if that's a bit strong - on re-reading it might be - must be
having a bad day!).

Try telling the thousands of little boys and girls who want an Ian
Wright or Tony Adams football shirt that they can't have one !
I'd rather watch Tottering than tell the kids 'NO'.

| You Lucky lucky b@$t@rd$ we didn't even have legs to kick the heads around with.
We used to have to cut our heads off and watch other kids kick them around.
The best days of my life.
The kids of today don't know what they missed.
Ah yes the good ol' days....

On another track,do you feel sorry for all the West Ham fans who had DICKS on
the back of their shirts.
