Unlike at the time of the old Greaves deal, there's nothing on offer there that has me thinking of buying. I see they've still got an old Airdrie diamond thing available; was 28 quid, now 5 quid! It’s a wall plaque thingy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder how many of those they've sold, and if it's almost none, if they've decided that there's therefore "no market" for PTFC items. But maybe I'm out of touch; are these "jersey squares" (Channel Islands Tory councilors, haha!) actually popular? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gianlucatoni Posted February 25, 2021 Report Share Posted February 25, 2021 took me a while - resolution not that great - is that Brian Whittakers heid poking out two past Derek Johnstone? He used to work in the boot room up top in Lumley's - selling all kinds of rubber and nylon (studs that is s!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

exiledjag Posted March 1, 2021 Report Share Posted March 1, 2021 Just thought you would all like to know that I received my limited edition Jersey this morning. After much swithering I decided to buy (actually my wife paid). I can say with confidence that Greaves have sold......... 3! My number shows 3/100! I think the quality is very good and I am very happy with it. Looks much better than the pic! Can anyone boast of a higher number. BTW large is comfortably large - not the tight fit of our previous supplier! Come on everyone buy one you will be pleasantly surprised and its money to the club! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just went on for a look see and was thinking of buying one. Looks like only 6 left and Small and Medium only. Does that seem correct?

When I got mine the website suggested only small/medim/large sizes remaining which is why my limited edition number of 3/100 surprised me!

Dick Dastardly Posted March 29, 2021 Report Share Posted March 29, 2021 I like some of the other stuff but the shirt looks like a knock-off Scotland shirt. I know that is roughly what we wore 100 years ago, but somehow it’s not quite right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaggernaut Posted March 29, 2021 Report Share Posted March 29, 2021 Some decent items there. I like the replica shirt, and the polos. As they specify that the t-shirts are cotton, I'm guessing the polos are polyester.... which unfortunately I can't stand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garscube Road End 2 Posted March 30, 2021 Report Share Posted March 30, 2021 The polo shirts are crackers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
