is anyone aware of a (preferably) local business/shop/man in a shed who is able to print the official football league numbering on the back of a shirt?

id like to say its a torquay shirt but its actually for my dad who is a carlisle united fan and turns 60 next week. i have the shirt but i couldnt get hold of anyone at carlisel who knew what they were talking about so have opted to try and get it done down here myself.

ive tried jjb but they tell me they only do premier league numbering.

any ideas?

Have you tried a local printer? One of those t-shirt jobbies would be able to do it no problem.

Think theres one or two down the harbour side that might do. Though I cant remember the names of the place (Or if there still actually there!) I know the Club do I believe they might do it if you explain the situation. Still giving them money at the end of the day.

Grockle Alley in Paignton has oodles of these T-Shirt printing places. I can't vouch for their workmanship or the authenticity of the numbering.

I know it's cheeky, but have you asked at the club shop? I don't see they'd necessarily object just because it wasn't a Torquay shirt.

yeah, i have emailed the club (both torquay and carlisle) about it but received no response (wasnt really expecting one). i did sort of apolgise for the cheeky nature of the request but at the end of the day its money in the till. still no luck at this stage, im kind of holding out for the official football league numbers and i havent found anywhere that does it. so i might have to give it a miss, at least he'll have the shirt (which, incidentally is brand new this season and is not only already on sale but was bought on the tuesday and received on the wednesday morning).
