The world of football shirts seems to have gone a little mad in recent times since the whole scam to do with supermarkets and cheap prices, but make no mistake about it, it’s still massive business.
Football is a business these days, we all know that and the shirts have a massive impact on profits for clubs, so getting things just right in terms of design and sales must rank highly in terms of importance.
Why is it then, that so many teams have so many awful football shirts? I mean event the teams at the very top, will all the money and resource in the world seem to fall victim to some of the most god awful tops you could ever hope to see.
This season, let’s take Chelsea for instance. They’ve won two Premiership titles and countless other trophies and plaudits over the last three or four seasons and this year they’re being paraded round in fluorescent green tops that make them look like traffic wardens.
Arsenal, Celtic and Man Utd are just three teams to benefit from the quality of their shirt designs in recent times and I’m sure there’s a line of others waiting in the wings.
Most real football fans are just everyday people who don’t want a tight fitted pink shirt with a white round neck collar. They want their teams colours represented in a simple manner so they can wear the shirt with pride on a Saturday.
A lot of manufacturers seem to be forgetting this and I hope dearly that football shirts are given the attention they deserve in the future.
Cheap Football Shirts Needed Please
Cheap football shirts should be everywhere, but they’re not because clubs refuse to lower their prices. I buy my clubs home football shirt every couple of seasons and pay the standard forty quid, which by any stretch of the imagination isn’t cheap. Why should football teams be allowed to sell shirts that they might only wear once or twice over the course of a season for forty quid? It’s just ridiculous.
Away shirts should be cheap football shirts, simple as that. I think a fair price would be thirty quid for adults and twenty for kids. That’s currently a tenner cheaper than most retail for.
I mean, how many kids beg for these shirts every year and then refuse to wear them after what seems a couple of months because they’re no longer current? Even die hard fans that go to every match, home and away can only expect to be showing the right colours on the odd occasion.
Maybe I’m just mad to think that in this day in age when everything in football is geared towards business, that some of the clubs might give us a break and sell football shirts for a fraction cheaper.
What’s even more painful is if you’ve got a naff manufacturer. I mean, if you’re shopping for sports clothes you wouldn’t pay the same price for a Jako sports shirt (that’s a real make) as you would a Nike one would you?
