    Yeah it’s got bags of potential. It’s just one aspect to my business and coz I always go in high end and make it all myself, I need to make sure I’m pitching to the right people. The event I was at on the weekend I had 8 year old lads asking if I had bubblegum flavour ice cream

    No mate… you want the spar down the road lil man

    There was another one I remember at some tourist place, hot day, no drink vendors on route and this one guy was postioned half way on through the walk and making an absolute killing. Trouble is as you know it's all very seasonal.

    I used to make ice cream and sell it at shows... you can pull thousands in one day... just pay for a pitch which is buttons... even selling cans of pop you rake it in..... it's the freezer and transport that costs....the toffs love an ice cream.... call strawberry wild strawberry and **** like that and they go for it... hand out a few free at the start then they come looking for it.

    Yep, the more syllables you put in a meals description the more you can charge. The real money is in adding 'organic' or 'ethically raised', especially at festivals.

    Another **** strip for us along with the worst training gear and clothing range I've seen since 95.

    I agree anything is better than loan sharks or betting companies. I use to prefer it when shirts had no sponsors, but it's all about the money these days.

    Those shirts are manufactured for relative peanuts ... it's scandalous and amoral that they are being retailed for such prices tbph...

    ... and that's a pop at every club - not specifically NUFC ...

    The Toon fans are now in the main grown up 90's charvers and their offspring and they have a hard on with Adidas giving them some stripes....it's an excellent exploitation that will see them all cough up while the food banks continue to try and put out the flames.

    Can't complain too much when people buy them though.

    If people are willing to mug themselves off then you can't expect businesses to not take advantage.

    Agreed.

    It's a joke, the kits being sold as "replicas" are essentially sweat shop manufactured and cost peanuts to make.

    Then you have "pro quality" which means it was made with a slightly better material and goes for over 100 quid.

    It's an absolute disgrace.

    Nothing is worth the money these days mind.. a takeaway for 3 or 4 will cost 70 to 100 pounds and that is halfway down the Tyne before the seasons out.

    The black n white stripes is novel.

    With your shirts, wouldn't it just be cheaper to buy the sponsor tag and stick it on the old one. Who the fck would notice.

    Anyway stupid to buy a club shirt unless it's for a kid.

    The authentic strip is actually very different but I agree shirts worn by anyone over 18 she be banned... the state of all the baldy fat slobs up here wearing them.
