well yes.....they take your photo, and then crudely photoshop it onto a team photo. I've got mine on the fridge door, it still makes me smile every time I look at it....I am shirt number '2002'.
The tour is quite interesting though...only downside is you're not allowed on any part of the pitch, and when I went in Dec it was covered with sheeting to protect it. |
