I think the same as you WW. Replica shirts are more for the kids and young at heart. Jasonlouise's suggestion of the Wigan/Wire challenge in Milwaukee USA would appeal to those fans

When replica shirts were first produced, most only changed every time the main shirt sponsor changed, but now because of more advertisements on them, they change every season and you now pay a high price to be a walking advertisement for sponsors.

Like many others, enough is enough and I now wear a Cherry & White 't' shirt with badge, but without advertisements which still shows who I support but at the same time did not cost me anything like you pay for a replica shirt to be a walking advertisement.

Others, I have noticed have done likewise!


A "T-shirt"! How standards have fallen. Club tie surely!

I got married in a club tie. But then I also wear replica shirts. My family find it an easy present each year around Xmas and birthday, if they're on sale in time!!

Maybe, but cheaper than being ripped off with annual new shirt which in most cases is not needed.
