The response to the Retro jerseys has been truly overwhelming.
We didn’t want to produce standard “replica” jerseys, as we feel that takes something away from the originals on the ice for the night, but we are very conscious that a lot of fans were disappointed to miss out.
Working with the MKLSC, we’ve come up with an approach that we both think strikes the right balance.
We will produce one replica jersey for each player who iced in the very first season 2002/2003.
Purchasers will be able to choose the size, but the name and number will exactly match what that player wore in that season.
This means there will be a further 24 jerseys available. These will be priced at £100 each, and will go on sale at 7pm this evening – Friday 9th Jan.
We’ve gone through the old programmes from the season, and found the numbers the players wore (some had the “blood shirts” hence two players with the same of number).
These are limited to 1 per family, and first come first served (for the players below) as we know the demand will be high.
