    As a follow on from my thread yesterday about football tops I have a question.

    My boy wanted Xavi on the back of his Spain top (couldn't get him an Ireland top as he is a Prod and lives in Ballymena) and the girl in JJB said that they are only allowed to put Torres and Fabregas on the back. The Spanish FA have said as much. What is that all about? Have Googled and cant see anything.

    What's the story?

    Ps. Just back home there and still half drunk here and eyeing up the Stella in the fridge <party>

    Xavi costs less

    How much per letter?

    Maybe if they priced it on par with a scrabble score...

    Maybe the Spanish FA have an agreement with kit manufacturers Adidas to only use Adidas affiliated players?

    It shouldn't be a big deal: a person from one province of the United Kingdom supporting another United Kingdom team at a major tournament.
