THE BRITISH TODAY Ⅱ

Like many boys first dream was to be a football player. because Football is big business and football player can gets many fame and glory.

Many fans buy a replica shirt. replica shirt has two different shirt. one for home games, the other for away games. some fans buy both. But they are not cheap. each shirt costs about 8000 yen.

Even famous soccer team change the uniforms quickly.

Many fans are worried what is fashionable today might not be fashionable tomorrow......
