I wonder how much I'd get for my 1998 Shaw Carpets star shirt.

Nothing as it's a fake because we had ORA in 1998

Wore my red OG with Hendrie 7 on the back at Old Trafford this season. You can spot the remakes a mile off as they aren't baggy like they were in the 90's.

I’m a bit tempted by this I can’t lie. I didn’t move to Barnsley until 2001, when I was 9, so clearly I could never have had an original. A few years ago I did pick up the 95/96 home shirt off classic football shirts but as others have said, these kits (the originals) cost a fair whack still.
Might have to get one in large to try and maintain the baggy feeling. The sleeves on my 95/96 one are that big I feel like if I flapped my arms a bit, I’d take off.

I don't think this thread warrants a dig at the club.

They should relaunch the 97/98 team. Even at the age their at now they'd be better than the current lot.

I’ve been to the club shop today and they aren’t up to much IMHO, look a very bad copy… no embroidery or anything.
The Lyon’s home & away shirts are so much better that are in the club shop.

Any chance of relaunching 97/98 players ?

The original hasn't got any embroidery, the badge, logo and sponsor are all part of the material

I'm hoping the Fanatics deal is either changed when the contract runs out or bought out. If the club can prove it's more viable and profitable than in house then I'll be shocked. It was set up under Khalid not the present CEO. The directors will take the advice from him and given the outcry since fanatics took on the franchise I'll be again shocked to see em keep it when up for tender. May work for glamour clubs in the premier. But imo not for us. We will be at the bottom of the pile in priorities.

Wasn't the current CEO in charge of this at the time in his previous role?
Oh really? Fair enough, didn’t realise that….

It appears you are right as to when the contract was signed. But i genuinely thought the deal was agreed before he came. And announced by Khaled.
It was handed over to Fanatics may 23 When the previous deal ended.
He (Jon) arrived in January 24 and became CEO In march.
So in effect not 100 % sure who set up the deal Initially, given the time frame. But I have it in my head (right or wrong) They were mentioned b4 Khaled left.
Either way I feel we are not served well by the present outfit.

Ah you could well be right there. I didn't realise he was only here for a couple of months before becoming CEO, I thought he'd been here a year or so
