Order from the other side of the living room. "I would just like a t-shirt designed for a woman."

"Goblets for the wine drinkers"? - isn't that what the tankards would be for??   Grin

A fleece with the FC logo ( my pre-'99 old navy blue one is very worn out) an embroidered sweat shirt or hoodie, a polo shirt with an anniversary logo......
A mug or jug

Regarding merch, I still enjoy my Swarb frisbee and am thinking that I ned an entire set, all past members with their won frisbee or other plastic toy to feature on.

Dunno why! They're far more flattering than t-shirts

I associate them with European playboys who wear the collars up.  And golf players.  They're not a very rock & roll garment, are they?

And how rock n roll are Fairport at 50? And indeed their audience?

I don't mind a polo shirt myself (as long as it is not a stupidly overpriced designer label thing), along with anything with an elasticated waistband and comfy slippers. Can we put those on the list?

Yep, it's a polo shirt with a Fred Perry sticker on it! Or possibly a tennis shirt, which makes it far more rock n roll of course.😉
Kenny Jones the drummer of the small faces, faces, and the who, owns a polo ground! And he votes Tory. Rock n roll!😀😇
Oh ....and New Order wore polo shirts.

Kenny's voting habits rule him out of contention.  And there's only one true rocker in New Order - Peter Hook, and I've never seen him in one.

Anyway, this is all by the by.  Polo shirts with rock band names on them just don't sit right with me.  Just my pov.

Don't give detectives a bad name.  It actually took about 15 seconds.... a) google 'Peter Hook', b) click 'images' c) choose a photo   Smiley
