    I've got 30 odd pairs of adidas trainers and my Mrs gets the hump whenever she sees me looking at getting new ones.

    Darren's Mrs must be very understanding/easily silenced

    Gf of Millionaire, ok with shopping habits.... can't imagine why ??

    I don't have so many now, but when I lived in Singapore I had about 30 pairs. Now I am down to 10. I do find it hard not to buy, I probably look every weekend especially Adidas gazelles.

    Jesus some of you would have enough to buy Charlton if you didn't buy so many shoes.

    Who the fuck collects shoes

    They're shoes ffs.

    There are more weirdos on here than the sandwich thread. How many feet do some of you have?

    Most people from Norwich have 3 feet.
    Normal for Norfolk.

    How many shirts, ties, jeans, trousers etc do you own? If its more than what is absolutely necessary ie 7 total tops and 7 total bottoms, then why do you?
  • Roland ought to to have a read of this thread.

    It's led me to have a count up of my footwear last night.

    16 pairs of trainers
    4 pairs of timberlands
    4 pairs of shoes

    He'd have reason to cause us weird if he read this thread... His input would be the fact you only need one pair of shoes and a local B&Q for emergency repairs

    Wow. Well, this thread has really surprised me, and made me feel ancient. I had no idea people collected/ bought so many trainers.
    I definitely march in East Stand Loopy's footsteps here, and he pretty much sums up the extent of my footwear, apart from one addition I have - Wellington boots :wink:

    Few years back I needed a new pair, think mine had a hole in or something, went to the shop (wearing the worn trainers), saw same pair on sale so just bought them. Sales guy noticed, looked at me like I was a freak.

    Great poachers goal there
  • I am trainer rich at the moment, probably have 7 or 8 pairs. This is due to the January sales and the fact I hate shopping so bought in bulk sufficient to get me through the next 5 years, having finally gone through the last pair I bought 5 years before.

    Well, he's not reduced to sleeping on park benches yet, but it sounds like Benty's got a real addiction problem.

    (Spoiler for people who can't access BBC: Trainer addict Bent owns 'thousands' of pairs)

    That's not an addiction. It's just a teenager with no self control who has too much money and has never grown up.

    In other news, Charlton are expected to appoint Karl Robinson to replace Russell Slade. :wink:
