Got me the LE retro shirt with 9 on the back. My first shirt since the black puma (with gold badge) so I couldn't be too mad at her. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thiago Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 I was amazed how little was on offer at the club shop over Christmas. I got chatting to someone at the Back Page, and they basically said it's a consequence of Mike Ashley being a twat with the licensing. I'm already looking forward to the day we can start to be a proper retail outfit again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't remember verbatim what he said, but basically he transferred the rights across (they run out this summer) which has meant its hard to get much of anything.

Ameritoon Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 I had been in a few times during Ashley's reign and went in once a few month ago assuming it would be slightly better under Castore. Just a bunch of clothes, almost no memorabilia or anything else. Only one scarf option too. Can't believe how bad Ashley was. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holmesy Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 (edited) 7 minutes ago, LV said: Wait, what? Does this mean Ashley still holds some of our rights? He probably just limited what Castore are able to create for us before he knew he was selling the club - club kit only, no additional clothing or accessories. Fuck knows why if he knew Castore were taking over the club shop. Maybe he’s just being a cunt for the sake of it Edited January 6, 2022 by Holmesy Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

John P Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 Does anyone know what the fit is like on the "Pro" version of the kits sold on the club website? Ie are they really tight and I need to order a size up, or are they just normal sizes? The size guide on the webpage is just a generic castore one and I don't trust it Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vedder Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 Juve wore their pink away strip whilst we wore black and white in the reverse fixture. No idea why! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vedder Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 Who’s bought the retro shirt? How does it fit? Usually a medium but reading on the reviews are few people are saying order one or two sizes up 😳 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
