Leith Jag Posted July 26, 2011 Report Share Posted July 26, 2011 Hello! My Dad turns 70 in August and I am trying to organise a signed Thistle top for him as a present. I have never done this before and was wondering if anyone could give me a few pointers. I have emailed the club twice and so far have heard hee-haw! Would there be a particular person to contact about this? Any info/advice would be greatly received. My old boy is the reason why I follow Thistle and I know he would love to get a signed shirt as a present. Cheers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lambies Lost Doo Posted July 26, 2011 Report Share Posted July 26, 2011 Give them a phone. Email is a the most inefficient communication method. It takes ages for people to reply back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kni Posted July 26, 2011 Report Share Posted July 26, 2011 Buy a shirt and go to the training ground at Glasgow Green. Ask the management the team to get the players to sign it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
potty trained Posted July 26, 2011 Report Share Posted July 26, 2011 Why not just phone/email the club? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go to the EEoS night in Edinburgh tomorrow; Speak to Ian Maxwell about it; Get Ian's specific email address; Chase Ian if you haven't heard back within x days of him agreeing to sort it. NB In the past, the Club has been very helpful in getting tops signed, but only if you supply the top (i.e. they don't dish out freebies). Assuming he agrees to assist (and why wouldn't he?), if you can make arrangements to get the top to Ian, then it should be fairly straightforward from there.

Thistle_1876 Posted July 26, 2011 Report Share Posted July 26, 2011 When me and my mates got one for a friend's 21st we just phoned the club. It was £40 for the top at the time and picked it up on the Saturday before a home game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It would make sense. Thanks for the replies everyone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you are planning on getting the top framed, go for a small size otherwise you will have to get a massive frame and it will look a bit daft.
