    Doesn't look much like a Barcelona shirt to me. I suspect this is the name given to the style of the shirt. Iffy marketing to say the least !!

    Not Barcelona fc, these are plain football tops, good quality nonetheless I bought one myself along with a pair of shorts for my youngest for team training.

    OMG how can they say that's a Barcelona top when it's just a long sleeve red top.

    They aren't, its just the name for the style of the shirt. Obviously designed for a Sunday league team.

    I'm a Barcelona fan, born and bred. That is NOT a Barcelona shirt (as others correctly pointed out). Dodgy marketing ploy to say the least.

    For those wishing to buy the new 2006/07 shirt get it here:

    http://www.fcbarcelona.com

    At least you'll know it's authentic!

    I remember a friend of mine went to Benidorm on holiday a few years ago and came back with what was quite obviously a fake FC Barcelona Centenary shirt. He came back boasting about how he had the now rare as gold dust shirt and how I didn't have one.

    A week after he came back a package arrived from my father (who still lives in Barcelona) containing the Centenary shirt direct from the Nou Camp shop complete with my name in the official gold lettering on the back!

    Naturally I demonstrated the differences between the fake and real shirt to both my friend and the zillions of 'glory hunter' fans milling about the city wearing their fake tops!

    If you are a true fan of your favourite club, always buy the real deal. Unless you support Real Madrid in which case I don't care. :D
  • :mad: Well EXCUSE ME for not following world football and knowing the difference in between an authentic or a fake Barcelona top. If it was my home club LFC then I'd of known straight away, but being a woman I don't keep up to tabs with all the other teams in the Premiership.

    Besides, the site has other bargains too, which incidently, I decided to point out. Talk about negativity on this site when all you are trying to do, is point out ways of saving money.


    A thanks wouldn't go a miss.

    CheekyLittleMonkey, I appreciated the post, would have loved to get my hands on that clobber at those prices. No malice meant in my post, just pointing out info for others who may not have known tis all. :)

    I don't think anyone was directly having a go at you cheekylittlemonkey, it was more a stab at the site if anything for their naming of the shirt that could mislead people.
