As for it not being a big deal, I'm afraid I see it differently as will many others - it is located bang in the middle of our town near the pub and railway station which will see most of the away fan footfall - it is embarrassing from our perspective. Makes us look like the poor relation in our own town - have some ****ing pride people. This is outright disrespect.
There's a Sports Direct down the road that sells replica kits from Spurs and a host of other clubs. If somebody wants to purchase a Spurs kit for themselves or their kids, they would've just gone to Sports Direct anyway so I fail to see how this would have even the remotest of impacts on our football club. As far as I'm aware Spurs aren't leafleting the area with discounted tickets like West Ham have done in the past, something which is infinitely more disrespectful and where I'd draw the line.
Opening a shop that'll largely sell overpriced tat to people that are already Spurs fans? I'm struggling to give less of a toss if I'm being perfectly honest.
