Buying a Dons Shirt : Sat Jan 15, 2011 12:59 am  

Hello fellow fans ... I am going to buy a Dons shirt.
It is many years since I bought my last one, but I digress.

I am buying one because I think the season ticket deal was a complete bargain and I want to put some money back into the club by way of thanks.

Now to the nitty gritty. I don't think that the Keepmoat shop markets Dons stuff anymore does it? So I can't try one on can I?
Unless I go to the Dons office ... am I right so far?

If I buy online, I am buying a pig in a poke size-wise possibly.
I buy large in T-shirts when I want them to fit just right and that's how I would want a Dons shirt to fit ... so it looks OK under a jacket.
Some people buy the shirts oversize so they can put warm clothing on underneath in Winter and wear the Dons shirt on top.
I don't want to do that .. the only time I will wear the shirt on top is in warm weather.

So what is the best size to go for?
People who have bought one will know.
I am size large ... should I get that size or XL?
What I am trying to say is are the sizes accurate?

Cheers Karlos.
Where will you take it back to?
The Dons office?
Is that the best place to buy one and get a proper fit?
I would sooner try one on than buy on line.

when you do take up the career on the stage can I be your 'straight man' ?

Ignoring the incontinence issue ... and giving the young fella the benefit of the doubt.
The only other explanation is a bloke doing a wet T-shirt demonstration? Man-boobs or what????
That's one confused young fella.
