Thanks: Gave 190, Got 147 | What framed replica shirt ....
and where do I get it from ?
Hope this is the best place to ask here.
My Dad is 60 this month and I have sod all idea what to get him
After some thought decided on a framed Man Untd shirt but knowing nothing about them I dont know which shirt to go for.
He is a lifelong fan - naming me after Duncan Edwards
Ideas would be
a shirt from the year he was born (1948)
a shirt from the year of the recent treble win with his Surname and age on back
or any other memorable year from last 60 years
Suggestions welcome - also where would I look to get one from

Try www.toffs.com they do classic replica shirts. You can get names / numbers printed on the back too I think.

Ill get him that for certain - so thanks
Anyone know though where I could then perhaps get a shirt in a frame (for hanging) from ?
Think will get him the 1948 shirt as is and then a more recent shirt with his age and Surname on - but would like that framed

Can get a current season shirt printed with his age and surname from the Utd shop - just over £50
But then need to sort out getting it framed - can not find anyone that sells shirts, with custom numbers and names preframed

Seems that the club are holding a memorial service and the opening of an exhibition on Feb 6th - CLICKY
You could always take your dad to that as well.
I was named after Matt Busby
