Viva_Marc_Libbra 0 Posted June 8, 2011 By the looks of it he''s from Gloucestershire. So to travel to the club shop just to get his kid to try on a shirt seems a bit of a hassle- but phoning and asking is probably quite sensible. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Woman in the Stands (WITS) 0 Posted June 8, 2011 Labelling is a misnomer anyway as sizes vary according to manufacturer. You only have to look at our previous tops and the complaints over size L and XL from a number of posters. Depends on the fit (style) as well. You have to either try it on or take a gamble at buying the right size Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Voice Of Reason 0 Posted June 8, 2011 Can you imagine what they would be like if they were from Delboy rather than for Delboy?''Thats your universal size innit, all the kids are wearing them these days, ain''t that right Rodney?'' Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Fish Seller 0 Posted June 8, 2011 Does your child have a nickname of Shorty, Lofty, fatty, if not I suggest 9-10 for an 8 1/2 yr old. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Canarino 0 Posted June 9, 2011 My advice would be to buy a bigger size than you would have done in last year''s kit. I know a poster on the main new kit thread said he thought the shirt looked the same size as the previous kit when he saw one in the club shop, but I know from experience with Errea that the sizes are less than generous. The fit is more "tailored" and there isn''t much give in the fabric. Italians are generally much slimmer and slighter in build than Brits! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
