openEnd Posted August 18, 2005 Report Share Posted August 18, 2005 the fans better realise it is 9-10 years it wont fit them! ←Side point. A similar sandy/gold/champagne/vomit colour being used, agreed?Q. How come their use of the colour looks classy?A. Use of a dark colour with it. Revolutionary concept.No doubt Pumas involvement helps, the quality of the garment is obvious, can't see any scags either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pickle Rick Posted August 18, 2005 Report Share Posted August 18, 2005 This guy must be the kitman or something! He has got a whole load of Reading merchandise for sale, including the first replica home shirt. The kits are not released until October, but he somehow has one which was used when unveiling a new player.Surely illegal?!? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SimplyRed Posted August 19, 2005 Report Share Posted August 19, 2005 I think this is a cracking idea and I'm surprised other clubs haven't done this.There are plenty of fans out their who would be willing to buy the actual shirts of players of their favourite team.I would imagine team kit probably only lasts for four or five games max so it would be a good recoup.I know most clubs pass their old kit down through ranks to the youth sides, but making a few bob on popular players shirts is good revenue.

CityDuke14 Posted August 19, 2005 Report Share Posted August 19, 2005 City sold off most of the players shirts from the LDV win a couple of years ago,and a few others odd ones.I have the shirt presented to Luke Wilkshire when he signed for us.This was done via QXL auction site.Don't forget that the club "charge" £400 for a match worn shirt(this is what it costs to sponsor a player) so selling them regularly would devalue this.

tinman-is-god Posted August 19, 2005 Report Share Posted August 19, 2005 Seeing Leroy in a Reading shirt is so depressing Good idea for revenue though! I wish we still had him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The shirt sponsor is, effectively, paying for advertising space in the programme - not for the shirt itself.I still believe that this is a revenue area that needs to be seriously considered by the club. Heck, I'd even volunteer to run the auctions for them! I'm very active and very familiar with eBay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
