MONEY GRABBING S+++S
If any mug wishes to purchase the new Manchester United kit, he will have to shell out just under two hundred pounds for the privilege.
How can the club charge the equivalent, to some people, of approaching a weeks wages but pay their overvalued stars such vast sums.
The greed that is at all levels of the premiership, is the very reason I did not renew my season ticket several years ago, I find it abhorrent.

They can charge it because people will pay it.

Re: MONEY GRABBING S+++S
People can not keep doing it, especially as money gets tighter.
I do not know too many people who can shell out £200-00 just for a team kit. Bear in mind that next season a new one will arrive and children will always want the latest version.
I always thought that, football was a game for the people, it seems now it is becoming more and more exclusive and only for the privileged few.
Well they can keep it as far as I am concerned, and I keep on saying this, if more people tried this level of football I am sure they will find it more rewarding and a greater experience.

Obviously it's a ridiculous cost. But believe me they will shift them by the lorry load. If sales dropped then, and only then, would they consider dropping the price.
Until there are many more people like you and me then I'm afraid that shirt prices will keep on rising. And everything else to do with pro football.

They can only milk it so much Endo, people will eventually wake up and see they are being taken for granted.
