Ok, I'll let him off that one! I'm still not convinced this is '4real' though!

Do I remember his "Redundant" guitar strap ending up on ebay a few years ago?
That was pretty cool.
If 4real, of course.

Not that this has any relevance to the hilarious eBay jumper of course, just sayin'.

Knowing what Manics fans are like, surely someone out there would be able to unearth a pic from one of these photoshoots where he's wearing this jumper! That is if it's legit,...which it isn't!

And another thing... What kind of conversation takes place in order for you to end up with it?
'Oh, you're Manics fan! My brother-in-law plays is in that band. No, sorry I can't you tickets or arrange for you to meet them but I can get you an item of clothing!'

This is just so funny, why anyone would think this is 4Real I have no idea.

If he's that big a fan why would you sell it anyway?

I've actually just treated myself to this. An absolute bargain at £300. Are you lot saying you don't think it's legit?! The misspelt name tag was enough to convince me!



The comedy gold of Richey putting a name tag in his togs, let alone forgetting how to spell his own name. Christ.
