    don't football shirts have 'expiry dates' these days

    The England away shirt covers the 2006-2008 seasons. Normally they change the shirt about Feb/March so expect about 9 months use.

    The short sleeve shirt is only £19.99 on the FA's own online store. So not too huge a bargain.

    great find, I got one for £5 off debenhams a couple of months back when they had them on offer can anyone remember?It was a bargain!

    Got a Real Madrid home shirt with beckham 23 printed on the back last week from my local sport shop for only a £10!they said they wanted to get rid of them seen as he is off to La Galaxy, still a bargain and if madrid win la liga this season quite a good souvenir type shirt to own.

    What’s the deal?

    JJB are selling the current England adult 06/08 Away short-sleeve shirt (the red one) for £13.49. This is a good price considering when they first hit the shops, these were a huge £45.

    Were not JJB part of the Price Fixing Scandal along with others concerning England and Man Utd footie shirts a couple of years ago ? That's why they were £45 ! I believe another court case is pending against them.

    On principal I wouldn't buy anything from them, no matter how cheap it seemed. I'm surprised Martin is advocating buying from them !

    EDIT : having done 10 seconds research it seems they have been fined £8.4million by the OFT reduced to £6.3million on appeal for their part in the scam.
