I always have a name and number on the backs of my shirts and it doesn't bother me if they leave after, I see it as a remembrance of their playin time at City.Plus I think it just look better than havin a plan back. Also good years down the line and you pick up that old shirt with the name on the back and say "ah yes,Bianchi. What a sack of shite he was"

Just had to get Tevez on the home.. First time I wore it out it was Chelsea v the rags(Charity sheild). I ran into the pub jumpin up and down pointing with my thumbs to the back of the shirt like footy players do when they score. Chelsea fans thought it was great.. Rags didnt find it so funny lol.

Got Robinho on the away as Iv been meaning to have his name on a shirt. He could well be on his way(hope not) but its still good to have him on the shirt to remember who the first of many was.

Ent got the 3rd yet.. Thinkin Bellamy might earn a slot. Adebayor?? Barry?? Ireland?? tis a tough one

Well me new third shirt arrived today and I'm absolutely delighted with it.

Went with 39 in the end all though it was a hard call. Isn't it just great having so many good players to make decisions like this so tough!!!

I'm already thinking of getting the GK shirt for Christmas. Obviously the choice of name is a given (!!!) but yellow or green is the new decision to make!

What's the most embarassing shirt anyone has?
Anyone got a Vuoso for instance?
A Creaney? A Toure (Alioune)?
Must be a few Corradis out there?
I wish I had a Daley 8 from 1979 and a Kavelashvili - just for the number of letters on the bastard.

I wonder if anyone .. ever .. got a shirt with any of these names on
Lee Peacock, Lee Mills, Simon Colosimo, Craig Russell or ... Barry Conlon!
That's the holy grail - the yellow 3rd shirt from QPR game in 1997 with Conlon or Scully on the back!!

Almost as useless as his best mate McManaman - hard to think of a more disappointing signing. Wonder if anyone ever got him on their shirt?

Tried proudly showing off my new third shirt to the missus last night. She really liked the first two but burst out laughing at this one and told me it made me look like a packet of fags!!!!!!!!

Mind you, she's a Charlton fan and still goes on like they are the prem team and we've in League One again so what does she know???

My eldest son is a disaster at picking players names on shirts as they always leave.

His first ever was 'Kennedy' who was injured for most of the season and then left.

His second was 'Weah' .... we all we all know what happened there.

'Wanchope' followed the year after ..... and he was injured too for most of it.

The year after that he went for 'Berkovic' who pissed off to Portsmouth.

He then switched to 'Anelka' ..... hmmmm. I could go on and on.

What's he got now ...... Sorry, but it's 'Robinho'!!!
Relax ... It's only a message board in hyperspace!!

Never criticise a man until you've walked a mile in his shoes.
That way when you do criticise him you'll be a mile away.
And you'll have his shoes.
