    We can't score on the pitch, but own goals come easy!

    Bloody ridiculous and a slap in the face for EVERY supporter, including those who might be able (but perhaps unwilling), to stump up £150 for a shirt.😝😝😝

    It's not, unfortunately. The shirt and all that goes with it is bigged up in the club site, with a handy direct link to buy without having to use the e-store as for all other merchandise.

    When (not if) they sell out, Radrizzani will be around £300k, but sell the same shirt for £50 and turn over 10000, (hardly a challenge surely?), he'd make £500k (And he wouldn't pi55 off the supporters). And he's an international businessman, hmmm.

    And NOW the dream scene is badged with Eleven Sports......surely he could have resisted the urge to exploit the centenary in such a crass way? (clearly not).

    Looks like they've managed to shift them all and they are now being sold for silly money in the secondary (e.g. eBay) market for much, much more than most genuine "serious" m/w player shirts from decent past seasons.

    There are 1919 of them, people!

    Nowt as strange as folk.

    What is it about special edition do you not understand, Anyone would think you were being forced to buy one,

    We cant do anything about the people trying to sell them on apart from dont buy one,

    Can you imagine how much the shirt would be worth in the future, it is memorabilia just like a programme or such things,

    These can be passed down over the years.

    Errr, fully aware of what a "limited edition" is Pete, my (and just about every other supporter who either couldn't afford the price, or missed out before the 1919 were sold, or both), is that the club have decided to exclude about 99% from owning a shirt that celebrates the 100th anniversary of the club THEY make possible. Suggestion elsewhere for a limited edition shirt exactly as a shirt worn by the 1st team, and an unlimited number of replicas at a premium price but not as for the limited edition.

    It would have made more money for the club, would not have pi55ed off a HUGE number of fans, and would not prevent those who get the limited edition from profiteering should they wish to. What's so rocket science about any of that (but clearly beyond the club management to think up).

    Nice lead up to the anniversary game, not.
