    I have given up on ordering anything from the club shop again.


    I am 194 cm tall and not fat. Last year I ordered XXL shirts and they were too short in length.This year I tried XXXL as I thought they would surely be long enough. I must say it seems very strange that the biggest shirt they have is obviously made for wide people rather than tall people. I mean some footballers are tall and they must have shirts that fit!


    So now I have 3 shirts that I can't wear because they are short but have massive sleeves. It annoys me because living in Thailand it's not like I can go to the shop and try them on or anything.


    I just hope the tailors here can do something ;)

    Siam, I know what you mean, the replica shirt is usually a size smaller than the training tops. Last year I bought the home and away shirt and they were both labelled large and guess what, different sizes!
    I tried one on in the store and it was perfect so didn't see the need to try the other on, especially as there is no fitting room, silly me I'll know next time.

    Yeah, but these are the official shirts of the football club that use UK sizes ;)

    I may well pack them all up and sell them cheap I think if anyone wants about 4 unworn Cardiff tops...really pisses me off that my tops from 5 and 6 years ago all fit perfectly.

    I'm sure all the ladyboys out there will find that bit of midriff you show when wearing your City shirts very fetching. <yikes>
