Never been in, I know the website has been going for a good while and that a lot of stock is >£100. Surely the conversion rate is less than 1% though? I’d love to browse but I’d never buy. Same as most people. Seen a couple of articles in FourFourTwo and the like and it seems they do VERY well out of the match worn shirts that they get hold. Thousands of quid at a time. I’m guessing the rest just keeps them ticking over. Got a few things from them over the years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ruba Mustafa Posted April 24, 2020 Share Posted April 24, 2020 Please forgive me Radcliffe but I had a Blackburn away shirt in the 90’s. theyre on the other side of town from me so I don’t have a big dislike for them. it was a quality Umbro shirt, red body n black short sleeves. I loved it, my favourite colours too! it was hard wearing, I could just throw it in the boot of my car after 5a-side then put t on again the following week good as new 😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They do a killing when euro away sides come to manc and their shop in London has become a tourist destination for foreign footy fans.

There are two popular traditions on the island of Tenerife trying to explain the resemblance. One is that the flag was adopted as a mark of respect to the bravery of the Scottish sailors in the Battle of Santa Cruz. An alternative theory is the most influential masters of the island of Tenerife chose a design similar to the Scottish flag belonging to the Masonic Grand Lodge of Scotland and proposed a similar flag for the maritime province of the Canary Islands, which later became the flag of Tenerife.

Never did find out why all their kits and badge have Scotland Flags on....🏴 Tenerife adopted the flag centuries ago, and it was a mixture of two reasons, so the story goes. The main one was that St Andrew is the patron saint of fishermen, and fishing was the main trade here ( Tenerife) years ago. This was added to when Nelson tried to invade here, but, after a few days, a truce was found. The Tenerifians and British had a meal and presents were exchanged. The Scots had a batallion that had fought so bravely that they were greatly admired by the locals. The Scots at the meal gave them their flag, while the Tenerifians gave wine/cheese etc. So, to wrap up a mixture of both these reasons led to Tenerife adopting the St Andrews cross, although here its called San Andres. Know a bit long winded, but hope it helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Matt, see my post two hours earlier. Your not far out if you read it. My info comes from the president of The Armada Sur, which is a group of predominantly British fans who go to watch Tenerife every home game, and away game, if costs allow! There is normally two to three coaches that go from the South every home game, and Chris who formed the group, knows his stuff, he lives, eats and breaths CD Tenerife, bit like us with Bolton i suppose. Anyone who comes to Tenerife and fancies a live match, contact us! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only prob is no away fans, or not many, as every match is a 1,000 mile minimum trek from the peninsula. Now then, if you are here when we play Las Palmas, different kettle of fish!

Always fancied going to a game as I know a Barrow lad who was a regular there a few years ago, and I enjoyed watching Real Mallorca the other year.

Yep, you are right, think August is a bit early under the circumstances. The virus is more or less under control in the Canaries, but, unfortunately, we are governed by mainland Spain, were things are still not good! The Canarian government putting lots of proposals to the PM, but, at the mo, falling on deaf ears! Things are changing quickly though so who knows?
