Well he was whipping them out at a works bash, so I think that qualifies them as safe for work :barscarf:

Slightly off topic.

Has anyone on here bought a shirt off soccertriads.com? What is quality like and is lettering on the back any good? I sent for the away shirt with mertesacker 4 on the back and prem patches.

This site got a lot of good feedback from folks I know but as shirt was only 20 notes I'm not expecting too much.

And yes, I am well aware I'm too old for replica shirts let alone ones with names and numbers but I'm going through my mid life crisis :oops:

They are absolutely perfect. Been very happy with the ones I bought from there and a few of them have had personalised names with fadas as well - which I don't think you can get on official printing.

Lettering is plastic on the back but survives handwashing with no fading or peeling. Unsure on machine wash though.

Mertesacker 4. You're just excited at the new signing 8) :wink: it's all cool!

Too right I am :D I declared big Per as my player of the tournament after the World Cup. He got every ball in the air that was heading into the box. He and TV5 (when fit!!!) should be a dream ticket 8)

Good man! I'm gonna get Mertesacker 4 on the back of the away shirt now I reckon. I was thinking of getting it but wasn't sure to get anyone on the back or not. It's your influence :barscarf: Happy days!

No. Just child labour manufactured good quality fakes I believe. It keeps them pesky kids out of mischief if nothing else :wink:

The only one I came close to putting on one was Bergkamp.
Just to confirm I'm getting no player name on the back, going for my name.

Thanks for the replies everyone

If I bought a shirt (which I have never done before) I would put Wenger's name on the back and only gently handwash it but only when we win our next trophy.

After another 4 or 5 seasons of wearing it for every game, working up a good sweat I reckon it might just stink as much as he does.
