No one has disrespected those men in any way at all, or their achievements. Quite the reverse. The comment was about endlessly repeating a merchandising exercise that has already been conducted on so many previous occasions for anyone to see, when there are so many other ways to keep their memories alive. That said, I was at the game in Barcelona and you do have a point about the age and inevitable passing of these heroes. Lost me there, not sure what I commented on that wasn't relevant to the quoted post. With respect, I think you may be reacting to your own interpretation of my post and back pedaling somewhat. You say there are many other ways to keep memories alive, well we have a movie, a dinner, a book and another few bits and bobs available to those who wish to purchase. That’s got your knickers in a twist apparently, so what do you suggest would be appropriate for the 50th anniversary? Please bear in mind the players are getting a cut from all the merch and the dinner. I would suggest that the folk buying the items are older bears who can afford to do so. The relentless release of overpriced Castore tops and training gear, that hard pushed parents feel compelled to buy, is, for me a greater moral issue if we are discussing merchandise bombardment. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
