I see that the shirts from the Coventry game are now being auctioned.
I'd have thought that they would have waited before doing that with the new kit. You will get bidders from the usual suspects who will simply buy one then reproduce a cheap version and divert money away from the club. I followed one of these auctions a while back and it was heavily populated by buyers from China or Hong Kong. Later in the season ,yes but first game seems a bit of a possible banana skin.

Just the new design. |

None of this makes any sense. Are you saying that because these auctions are mainly of interest to Chinese buyers, they'll get a shirt then use it to produce copies to flog illegally? If so, then why wouldn't they just buy a standard shirt from the Stoke website then do that? Darn sight cheaper than stumping up for a match worn one. |

How do they reproduce the body odour of a match worn shirt? Rub it over a warm horse?

Totally agree. Insanity from the club. Just shows how toxic things have got that they are willing to allow these Chinese pirates the chance to get their hands on a shirt that's been widely available for months. Just for a few measly quid. |

Sure if the Chinese are ramping the bidding price up its only good for the club as it'll be more profit.
I bet the fake Chinese Stoke shirts were being mass produced the day after the actual shirts were released by the club.
Bocats shirt had blood stains on it (don't think it was his either 🤣) !
