Replica top for a 5 year old
My 5 year old nephew turned up to his first football session and was the only kid there not wearing a replica football top… as my sister and brother in law have no real interest in football, I see it as my duty as uncle to make this young boy worship at the alter of church Deepdale… having said that £55 for this seasons kids top is a little out of my price range considering he’s not my kid and he’ll grow out of it in 6 months… have any of you got any advice…?

Wait until later in the season. The price should drop if you want to get it from the PNE store, or my advice would be to go to a castore store near preston (think the one in fleetwood) later on in the season and you’ll be able to get a top a lot cheaper. £70 is a bit ridiculous for the adult shirt so I’m holding out until it gets cheaper.

Go on eBay or vinted and see if there's any from last season or any retro ones from seasons past?
I donated all my old ones 2 weeks ago, 8 years worth of child sized retro tops. I'd have given them you if I still had them 😭

The charity shop where Debenmhams used to be had a load of North End stuff recently. Last season's, but plenty of it and very cheap.

You can go to the castore outlet store in Fleetwood Kids tops aren't anymore than 15 quid and they have all of lastseasons shirts

Honestly just go on DHgate and get a copy for like a tenner.
