Captain Holt 522 Posted March 27, 2008 Is any one bidding on the Col U shirts from saturday on ebay?http://search.ebay.co.uk/_W0QQsassZnorwichcity1902Im winning most of them at the minute, but i''ve got a feeling that will change Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kirku 1,339 Posted March 27, 2008 all ebay action happens in the last few seconds of an auction, the price with 9 days left is rather irrelevant. when i was an avid ebayer i used to use a service called snipeswipe to do the bidding for me, i suggest you give it a try: http://www.snipeswipe.com/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
San Miguel 0 Posted March 27, 2008 the shirts are certainly very popular and bidding is a bit frenzied at the moment - like someone said its a bit silly outbidding each other with 10days left. if people had waited til the last few mins they could''ve saved a lot of money (but i guess that''s bad for the academy)certainly surprised to see so much money put on the table so early on Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cherokeeathekeg 0 Posted March 27, 2008 What does someone do with a used shirt boo ah? The new one I got was inexpensive and they mailed it to me in Canada. Or is the used shirt somehow a momento or something? (Sounds kind of gross...it is written) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Holt 522 Posted March 28, 2008 Yes, it is a mommento. All the shirts are only being worn once by the players, and for the Cureton shirt for example, it is the shirt he scored his first NCFC hat trick in. They''d be great to keep and to show off. Also, all the money is going to the club''s academy so that another reason to bid. Boo ah and all that........... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crazy Eddie 0 Posted March 28, 2008 They''re also not ordinary shirts. They are crammed with the specially embroidered names of season ticket holders. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shefcanary 2,496 Posted March 28, 2008 I wondered why they looked different from afar on the TV. Thanks for the alert - there may be a few late bids going in after all! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cherokeeathekeg 0 Posted March 28, 2008 I guess if the jack they raise goes to charity it''s not as disgusting to buy a sweaty shirt boo ah. It''s a good spirit you people have. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BCanary 0 Posted March 29, 2008 Maybe the shirt was bought by Jonathon Brellier of Brundall Gardens? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
San Miguel 0 Posted March 31, 2008 Actually - call me a cynic but with this they are only selling yellow shirts, not Marshall''s goalie shirtthis was the game where Gilks was not on the bench and we had no reserve keeper and I can''t help thinking they did that to ensure there were 15 shirts for sale (ie. 10 starters, 5 subs) and not 14but risky just for a couple of hundred quid - what if Marshall was sent off or injured? Shackell i guess is the answer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
