I received an email this afternoon saying mine was ready for collection. I’ve been off for most of the last two weeks due to exams (and available to collect it any day), but only this afternoon has it become available and I’m in Lytham St Anne’s until Sunday! I’ll pick it up on Sunday but I reckon my number will be dead high. This has been an utter f***ing p**s take.

Announce that there's only 200 available, numbered. Thus creating a feeding frenzy. 2. Announce that they'll be available online. On a week day. At tea time. 3. Sell out in less than 10 minutes. 4. Reveal 700 orders. 5. Announce more will be available "if" Joma can provide. (Feeding frenzy again as well as passing the buck). 6. Sit back and watch the money flood in. Genius. Or f**kwittery, I really don't know.

I'd say a little from column 'A' and a little more from column 'B'! Let us know when yours arrives, mate.

Got mine today numero 1027! Well chuffed. Excellent, matey. Mine was an attempted delivery this morning, but I was still in bed trying to recover from my nights this week! I'll have to pick it up from the post office tomorrow.

I won't state our numbers in case JG sees me in the crowd and shouts "Oi, XXX (that's my number, not JG swearing), you ain't no Gary Neville!"
Mini-Herm and I did manage to end up 52 apart which is might seem odd when the shirts were in one order, but also fitting, giving it was 52 years since the last Championship-winning season. Not that anyone will be able to work out it's a 52 difference without a calculator, of course.

One more thing (RIP, Peter!) regarding football shirts. This shirt is 2XL and I can barely get the bleeding thing on! Can the club please bear in mind that most fans don't have a footballer's physique, so can they please consider this when choosing next season's kit! Fitted shirts, my a**e!

Mini-Herm was pleased as I got him an adult S to last him several years but it's quite a good fit!
