    Kitbag are always competitive- you can go through quidco & there always seems to be a code knocking about. I would def give this site a miss.

    Not always fakes from Far East - nearly all of the main teams kits are made there, and sometimes the factory owners make a few 'extra' which don't go to the official suppliers. Either that or they may be slight seconds. As they are the brand new kits, I would assume its one of these options. The real cheap and nasty fakes you see in markets abroad aren't usually the most bang up-to-date kits.

    Still, £20 - this includes shirt & shorts (+ £10 p&p per order no matter how many you order) could be worth a punt.

    Remember most clubs will have a new kit for next season, so you may be buying an out of date one!

    If these are from Asia then you need to be wary about the sizing. I bought a couple of cheap shirts off eBay a few years back (fully expecting them to be fake but they were so cheap I didn't care) but was disappointed with the fit. They may well have been XL in Thailand but they weren't XL in the UK!
    The fridge is empty, the walls are damp, there's no hot water
    And I look like a tramp and tramps like us
