everyone knows of my allegiances with another club from the premiership ... but THAT is just WRONG WRONG WRONG!

Club shops should sell just items from their own club!!

But if the club generate more money then surely that's a good thing?

I know its bad, but I can see the reasoning behind it.

That was my thoughts. It's not as if those who want Northampton shirts are going to buy some premeirship shirt instead, but it might mean as many do, why not cash in?

That's very bad. If they want to increase their secondary income then why don't they sell and fix shoes ?.......maybe cut a few keys ?.........much more in keeping !

If you start to lose your club's identity I don't see what the point of it is.

Northampton lost their identity when they moved form the other CG...now that was a ground full of character. Probably the worst ground in the FL, but it was special....

Maybe there's a reciprocal agreement, with Northampton merchandise being sold at Anfield and Stamford Bridge?

Why would someone go to Northampton Town club shop to buy a chelsea or Man U shirt, they would just go into the sports shop on the high street to purchase one as they don't give a fcuk about NTFC
