Hartlepool United are delighted to launch the 2020 Remembrance shirt which this year will show our gratitude to the service personnel who gave their lives in the Battle of Britain fought over the Summer and Autumn of 1940, 80 years ago.
Someone forgot to put LEST WE FORGET on the blue shirt.

If you want to prove you are a better rememberencer than anyone else in your street, decorate your van with stickers representing a Spitfire strafing a greiving person with poppies. *

Me too mate. Would be a terrific gesture for those of us who like to remember our fallen. The shirt looks great and good to see its being worn against the mighty Ebbsfleet.
The club can do what they want, it’s up to us, whether we buy one or not, the same as with a poppy in general. Personally, after the way the British Legion treated my grandfather, a first world war veteran who signed up at 16 and was destitute in the 1920s, after seven years in a psychiatric hospital, I will never buy one.
Come people, you must seek out a self appointed arbiter to get pointers on what the etiquette is, and where the boundaries are when supporting the Poppy appeal.
Nb - Personally quite like an understated paper Poppy, or maybe a pin badge, but each to their own. It's not hurting anyone if someone wants to go all out to show their support.

But what about the profits from the 40 quid a pop shirts they're selling in the club shop?
Very popular and fetch a premium whilst passing a percentage onto services charities.
Some may feel its commercialism but I can see it gathering pace within the game in the coming years.
