In the 80s/90s it was FREE, 2 yrs ago you just had to buy the full kit.

Glad to see the club have upped their game with what you get for their money. As much as we enjoyed it last year, I felt it wasn't worth the fee when you added on the other expenses for tickets, strips etc so well done to those behind the scenes.

I'm only 18, and don't have kids - but think this must be a great package for anybody that does.

Very surprised also that the Club need to advertise it.

Re: " STUNNED "

That looks a good deal to me.

I don't have kids so I'll never (never say never but I haven't pulled in months) avail myself of this particular deal. The second mascot going to a local Charity has to be applauded though but.

There are several reasonably wealthy people who contribute to this board, I'm not anymore, three gaffs two "wives" eat into ones "pocket money" so I do find myself somewhat skint most of the time. However, I'll bung 50 quid in to a fund for propper fans who might not be in a postion to afford to get their young one on the pitch. The future is the young ones be they future potential supporters, players, business people or whatever. In my opinion this is an opportunity to rid ourselves of the odious reputation of being left wing backward small minded insular pricks.

The future's Blue.

My son is mascot for the Leicester game in September, someone I know rung up trying to get their son in for another game and they were told that all positions have sold out. Obviously cup games are unknown yet so keep an eye on things. Only one mascot package for sale per home fixture so I rung on the morning the fixtures were released.

My son had his kit last week. He's so looking forward to it and the fact it's live on Sky is an added bonus. :ayatollah: :ayatollah:
