Little bit off topic but, anyone have any tips for removing names, number from back of shirts? My daughter, who was very young at the time, bought me the 2nd acorns shirt for my birthday but she had my surname and number 1 on the back. It's still in pristine condition because I've never really worn it in public.

Do you have a hideously embarrassing surname or something?  ;D

Or to change the name and number to Habib Beye.

No nothing like that. I want to wear it, that's the thing. Just not into forty something year old blokes wearing shirts with names and numbers on the back really, and obviously the number 1 makes it worse.

I don't mind seeing something like that on anyone, it's clearly a present in that case.

I do find it weird when middle-aged men have the name and number of a player though.

I wonder if this weeks gigs Villa Park  by world wide superstars will be when we choose how & when we unveil our New badge & Kit ... Could be a PR masterstroke

Personally gutting for me Ashley Young is gone, as I am now finally older than all the players.

Just washing the modern shirts lifts off any printing! My old Macron shirt lost the macron shoulder design and left a shadow and my even older Diadora Rover shirt lost the rover sponsor and left a shadow.....

There's a few peeps on Twitter that can advise on the removal of names/numbers - on of whom lives in Knowle and is one of us.  Happy to pass on details.

Just do the opposite of what they tell you in the shop...

So.... Wash it on a higher temperature, 2itj loads of fabric conditioner, don't turn it inside out and finally dry it on a direct heat source like a radiator on full blast. Or get a 6 year old to wear it.

Flashes up on the big screen just as Springsteen reaches the "1..2..3..4" but in the middle of Born to Run.

I already was, but it was nice to have an outfield player close to my age

Seems like a lot of Newcastle fans are very unhappy with Castore.

Very limited stock and quality issues.
