RevNet Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 Always looking for a new way to squeeze money out of their most loyal supporters, football clubs have found a new racket that could soon become common practice -- letting fans pay to have a tiny picture of themselves worn by the player of their choice.Taking a cue from the Million Dollar Homepage, Sevilla has become the first top-flight football club to sell small squares within each player's number on the back of their shirts featuring a photo of the buyer for ?24.90 ($33.35) each.The idea of a company called Playing 2, Sevilla fans (or anyone else) can go to its website, select the player they want to wear their mug and the exact spot on the number they want to appear for the entire season.http://sports.yahoo....?urn=sow-wp7137 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MJWalker45 Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 I can as a one time thing for a one off jersey for say a 100th anniversary or something like that. Clubs have put their players on the shirts why not the fans? Especially if they are ready to spill out extra cash for the right to be on it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
