pdw76 Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 What price will the shirts go for (ish)? Taylors for instance? Just so I know as it is (or maybe) coming out of my 'England playing in the World Cup Final fund'. Edit: 'Maybe' as I may win the shirt. i'm off to Brazil no matter what. Well unless it gets taken off them for ineptness which is a possibility. I think these shirts will go for around £150 minimum. Businesses and people wanting to put money to a good cause will pay that bit more than normal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rosa Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 Mrs. Sideburns makes the point that the pink shirts would appeal to females, but would be even more appealing if they were shaped for women. The South African Football Association concur with her. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/africa/4332715.stm The problem for the Club would be to know how many of the women's shirts to stock to make production viable. Perhaps advance orders, including a deposit, could be taken before a final decision was made on whether to have both ordinary and women's shirts. If i remember right, when Everton brought out a pink kit for charity (their players weren't man enough to actually play in it ) you had to pre-order them, and they had to do a second run of them because there was so much demand. i haven't bought a replica shirt for years cos they don't fit properly but i'd buy the pink one even if they didn't make them fitted for women.

Oldham_Gaz Posted February 16, 2009 Share Posted February 16, 2009 If the club did produce some replica pink shirts then I would be more inclined to buying one (for my girlfriend) if a percentage of the RRP went to the Victoria Breast Unit. Also it would be a great personal reminder to all Leeds scum as to when they got beat by Oldham playing in bright pink. I'm sure they will be giving us plenty of abuse about it at the beginning of the game about it, so it will be extra good to rub their noses in it when we beat them.

I have bought her a few England shirts in the female fit and she loves them. Cannot see there being enough interest volume of sales-wise to warrant this - though the fact that Carbrini use the exact same design for a number of clubs would mean they could use it numerous times.

Anyone notice the shirt Gregan's wearing is a different design (look at the collar, for instance) to the one he's holding above his head? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danoafc Posted February 23, 2009 Share Posted February 23, 2009 no i would prefer they wear something good that doesnt appear tacky to be honest.. they could be nice hats/scarves/gloves - they do them for the girlies in a plain cream colour I think. I wondered whether you were more hinting at the football crop tops and hot pants idea! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stitch_KTF Posted February 26, 2009 Share Posted February 26, 2009 I am also boycotting the Leeds matchdue to being kicked out of the RRE. Now call me a cynic, but I suspect you are actually 'abusing' the system of being kicked out of the RRE. I put it to you that you are trying to sell tickets swopped for your ST vouchers because you'd sooner have thirty quid back in your pocket and watch it at home. Clever...
