Sometimes I pick teams to play as in Manager mode in Fifa just for the shirts. Sampdoria consistently produce awesome shirts. Damnnn.

Actually a friend got me a jersey when she was in London several years ago. I would guess it was a knockoff since it was relatively cheap but I didn't matter to me really. actionjackson fucked around with this message at 19:41 on Jul 3, 2010 |

It looks like soccer triads doesn't have a large size for a lot of jerseys. I wear a large in t-shirts and the jersey above and it fits well, so this is kind of a problem. Is minejerseys my next best alternative? I was interested in Argentina away, Spain away, Germany home and Chelsea away but only the first had a large size available at triads. vv I'll try that, thanks vv

Fag Boy Jim posted:are you american? if so, an XL should work just fine (i always get a size up when ordering from europe) Yes, though as I said since the one jersey I have is L and fits well that would be my preference. I guess if the jersey will shrink a bit in the wash XL might be a better idea.

What is the difference between minejerseys and jerseybbs? I used the first and it's the most bootleg thing ever. There isn't even a direct link to your shopping cart, to get there I had to add another item (and then remove it). Should I really be giving my credit card info to these people?

As far as I can tell, MineJersey grew from JerseyBBS. I personally purchased from MJ because the screens at JBBS kept saying "Go to minejersey". It's been a month, no shady charges. There is an extra $2 charge on there from FedEx or something like that, but regardless, nothing since then. All my monies are still here. At least one other person purchased from the two sites, here's what he says: http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=2911318&userid=0&perpage=40&pagenumber=29#post377675016 http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=2911318&userid=0&perpage=40&pagenumber=29#post377790614 If you're worried about it, go grab a prepaid Visa Gift Card from WalMart, or use paypal, either in just using paypal itself or in the form of a Virtual Credit Card. Or just buy the legit thing.

actionjackson posted:It's not a huge priority, I mean obviously I want to save money but I care about not getting ripped off more. What you can do is go to jersey777.com, pick out which kit you want (they carry size large), and then send them an email telling them you would like to use paypal. That's how I got my U.S. kit for $30 with only having to wait a week for it to get here. Also, printing on the back can either be perfect (my John Terry England kit) or complete poo poo (my friend's Chelsea 10-11 kit he bought from them a month ago) so do that at your own risk. Also, why are you wearing kits from a dozen very popular clubs? Do you have no allegiances?

Did you pay $30 shipped? I wasn't sure if their prices were listed in GBP or USD, but $13 in shipping would seem about right. The lovely thing is I want my daughter's (Picque Barca away) to get here by her birthday on the 31st Time to gamble with Triads on the time line. highme fucked around with this message at 05:46 on Jul 5, 2010 |

I ended up using paypal with minejerseys. I ordered a Spain and Argentina one since I'm really like blue and navy. And no I really don't have any allegiances at this point, at least on the national level. I don't follow club football much yet.

Since you're new at this if you're an American please just call it soccer. Calling it football as an american makes you look like a twat who's into it to be different rather than into it to be into it. Also as an American your number one allegiance should be for USA

It's "the MLS attitude" and it's why no one gives a gently caress about their league.

My Germany Home shirt arrived today after 3 weeks marked as a gift as others have said. Quality is much better then I expected, could easily pass for real (if it isn't anyway). Had an official tag and everything, and the clima cool looks realistic too. Included some pics from my crappy camera phone. Click here for the full 1536x2048 image.

All in all I would definitely reccommend soccertriads, very cheap for a great product and doesn't take too long to arrive. Another thing to note is the shirt I ordered was a small and its definitely larger then a small, easily fits me and I'm more of a medium.

Why don't you read up on the origin of the term football and soccer before you make yourself look dumb. If soccer wanted to be so literally correct it'd be called footchestandheadball quote:Just as intriguing, for those who like to lambaste American Football being called such when the ball interacts primarily with hands, most of the earliest forms of Football were named thus, not because you kicked a ball with your foot, but because they were played on foot. Peasants played most of their sports on foot; aristocrats played most of theirs on horseback. Thus, games played on foot were called “football”, whether they had anything to do with kicking a ball or not. Indeed, many of the earliest forms of football involved carrying balls in an attempt to get across goal lines passed some opposing team or individual players.

I don't think I would dig up anything which would make "you kick the ball with your foot that's why it's called football" as a reason to insist that no one ever call the game soccer any less stupid and wrong. If you're really passionate about spreading awareness of water handball's true name, well, good luck to you.

I wasn't sure if their prices were listed in GBP or USD, but $13 in shipping would seem about right. Shipping I believe is still $20 for the first jersey, with $7 added for each additional jersey, which I found to be reasonable considering the jersey itself was only $7. And yes, the prices are USD. The thing I like about the store is I've never had to wait longer than two weeks to get a jersey.
