Names on the backs of shirts

[Don Logan]

Never been one for replica shirts personally, but got nothing against anyone who likes to sport one.

On the back of a shirt this is marginally acceptable;

. WE 8 PALACE

. The name of a season when Champions (I.E CHAMPIONS 2011)

. A homage to a departed Seagull (I.E RIP CLIVE)


However the following is not acceptable;

. the name of a player if you are aged 13 or above

. your own name, especially a nickname (I.E Johnny Boy) if over the age of 13

. your online username.....this is just beyond horrific. If you do this there is no way back for you.


Thanks for your time.

Where do I stand then?

Gritt 23, was originally dreamt up specifically for a shirt as a homage to the great escape season, because I wanted neither my own name, nor a current players name. However, that then developed into a nickname "Gritty", and subsequently my online usename.

Does that make me acceptable or unacceptable?

the following is not acceptable

What?

All I've seen is complete bollox from OP, very likely to be the first ever to go on ignore

I think your acceptable mate. Fair play.

This guy is a fantastic wind up merchant.

I am 24, and I have had player names on my shirts for quite a while. Unsuccessfully actually, Bennett 7 was on last years home shirt, Murray 17 on the away. Before that, Savage 17 (almost purely because I think it's a funny name), Virgo 23, Loft 18 (on a few) and way back in the day, Watson 2. Good times, and memories.

I still see the occaisonal Cullip 27 walking around, there was always something iconic about that for me, not sure why.

I might get 'Good Old Sussex by The Sea' on the back of my shirt. Never really been fussed to be honest. All I give two shits about is the crest on the front of it. Seagulls!

He is a wind up merchant but on this one I'm with him. I struggle to wear a replica shirt. My other half looks at me with something between pity and contempt if it gets an airing. And also takes me back to the time when i wore it as a casual piece of clothing while staying away for a work. I called a f***ing bum boy and then had half a burger luzzed at me - was in Stockport I think.

To be fair it was the pink NOBO shirt.

Aw come on mate that is a step too far. We could have such a future together.

I am all for comedy accounts, but this bloke really has it all wrong. He has not raised a single chuckle from me on any of his posts.

He/She is just too weird and offensive for the sake of it.

weird and offensive

Why?

Go retro. I've got the current club shop replica of the wardy bukta shirt and the pheonix brewery one (both gifts) and I get SLIGHTLY less grief from my wife for wearing them (only to football mind).

Does anyone think the first skint shirt qualifies as a retro shirt yet? I have it in very good nick with a cracked and faded 9 in homage to OGH.

I've moved on from players names on the back of my shirt to players FACE on the FRONT of my tshirt.

Thanks to cultzeros

It's only 'retro' if it is a remake of an old style (like the Bukta copy in the shop). I'd be inclined to call the 1999/2000 shirt a vintage shirt, just about.
