pozbaird Posted August 11, 2016 Report Share Posted August 11, 2016 Ahead of the upcoming new season, the NFL are opening pop-up shops in four Intu Centres across the UK. The Braehead NFL shop will be open Fri 19th - Sun 21th August. Replica jerseys, caps, T Shirts, hoodies and merchandise from all 32 NFL teams will be available. Posting this because I know a few guys on here follow the NFL and the shop will only be here for three days. I also know posters on here think the NFL is shite, so cue post-building! My experience of events run by the NFL is of slick professionalism and marketing their business at the highest level, so with a bit of luck, the useless chunts from JD Sports will come along to learn a thing or two. Cannae' buy the new St Mirren shirt but I can get a new Broncos jersey / T Shirt / cap.... Know where my cash is going. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No point in doing that, they've got tons of T Shirts. Buy one for yourself, NFL teams are minted. It's a thoughtful gesture though. I'll remind you nearer the time. Thursday at noon good for you?

flyingscot Posted August 15, 2016 Report Share Posted August 15, 2016 I went to Wembley last year. Didn't have the stock of what I was looking for so plumped for a New Orleans Saints T-Shirt well because of the Saints link! It's really good quality.

pozbaird Posted August 17, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2016 Reports on the NFL UK fan forum suggest the pop-up store in Intu MetroCentre was very good with a large selection of pucker team jerseys, T Shirts, baseball caps, hoodies, knitted headwear. Jersey options were the 'star' players, so the Patriots jersey was the 'Brady 12' one, the Giants jersey was 'Manning 10', etc. Will be going along to Braehead on Friday to check it out. FTOF: In case I am busy at noon tomorrow, consider this your 'remind me nearer the time' moment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whydowebother Posted August 17, 2016 Report Share Posted August 17, 2016 There was 'alleged' interest from Celtic in that unit, but they done well out of their 'pop up shop' in Greenhill Road they said , so retracted their interest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pozbaird Posted August 17, 2016 Author Report Share Posted August 17, 2016 The shop is apparently in the ground floor circle area that is sometimes used to show new cars or the Christmas grotto.... right outside JD Sports. So, into the NFL shop for a Broncos T Shirt and straight into JD Sports for a St Mirren.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although Santa delivering the top is more believable than JD sports doing so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I fancied one of the new-edition New Era wooly hats (for those balmy winter nights at FeegieField with my arse frozen to a shit-encrusted plastic seat v Dunfermline on a midweek February night)... New design with the metallic '3D' logo... Didnae' have any Broncos ones. Bloomin' reigning Superbowl champions and I'm told 'we're waiting on stock coming in'. Pah. Still, the nice bloke at the till gave me his business card and if I e-mail him next week, he'll do me a Broncos one with 10% off and free one-day shipping. Fairy nuff'. I never bought a Broncos T Shirt or jersey. Already have 'Elway 7' and 'Wembley 10' Broncos jerseys, and the Nike dri-fit fabric T-Shirts they had in Braehead don't suit the more expansive waistline favoured by yer' average NFL supporting ginger whinger.
