Went past Gilesport in Cheltenham today and noticed that they are closing down! Apparently they've been bought out by Sports World. Anyway - just to say that they are currently offering 30% off everything in store. Got myself some cheap Animal stuff!

Not sure but i thnk sports soccer is now sports world (lillywhites too).
My local sports soccer has re-branded as sports world, told by staff member this was due to the fact sponsorship from umbro has now changed to Lonsdale (which explains why you used to be able to get cheapumbro stuff and its mainly all lonsdale now.0 -
My husband used to love ltd edition/exclusive Lonsdale gear - then Sport s World started selling it dirt cheap - and now he wont dare wear it! So vain!0
