The statement says that “Anyone found to be wearing a fake shirt inside Hillsborough could be asked to leave”. No way will it be enforced, and no doubt the day would arrive when someone with a genuine shirt got chucked out in error. Then what? Maybe if the club (and other clubs, it’s not just us) weren’t so greedy with their shirt pricing they wouldn’t have to issue a statement like this. I’m sure every supporter would prefer a genuine SWFC shirt to a fake one, but not when you can get a fake one for a quarter of what is being charged for the official one. Clubs have brought this on themselves. 8 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mkowl Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 I guess the equivalent is turning up at a gig wearing a knock off band T shirt as opposed to buying the similarly over priced versions from the merch stand. Folk don't realise that the stadium is private property so can apply their own terms and conditions - well within the law. Why festivals ban taking in your own food or drink and presumably they could deny entry if you did so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clubs have created a gap in the market, £70 (sometimes worse) for a shirt that will be changed in a year. Clearly they cost much less than that to produce. I had a look at the online shop last night out of curiosity and they also hit you for £7 postage if you decide to buy anything. That DHGate ship from China for significantly less sums it up.

That DHGate ship from China for significantly less sums it up. Yes clubs are seeking to maximise revenues by protecting their IP. Same as the EPL and EFL will protect the value of the TV rights sold by going after the providers of firesticks etc - albeit the law also says the end user could be gone after. So yes the price margin provides the incentive for providers to risk it for a few quid and hope they do not get caught. But it always makes me laugh folk will happily take the cheap option but then moan when their local pub is closed or the shopping centre no longer as shops Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In places where there isn’t a monopoly, not allowing your competition to undercut you is a factor in maximising revenue. There’s a difference between selling for a premium and taking the piss and I think they’ve pushed it too far. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are probably right about the pushing it too far price wise Not really a monopoly though - a band or artist would do similar to protect IP Technically I wasn't allowed to put the radio on in our old office without paying a PRS fee - can't recall the criteria.
