indeed what is an iron? I thought it was used as a paper weight or an ornament.

And yes i sometimes suffer from the collar issue too

Last time I held an iron I was moving it round a Monopoly board.

I wouldn't let the wife play. She hasn't finished erecting that coal bunker yet.

Dare I say it....Yes I will

The club has taken BJ's concerns about 'lifting collars' and Kinny's apparent inability to iron, the shirt for next season will be without collars. :smt002

Maybe it has something to do with the embroidery, one side has the Tigers emblem on it?

Though when I'm playing I prefer no collar as the opposition forwards tend to use it as a choking implement as I try and run through them. Most refs being of the 'old school' and former forwards are never going to side with a back, especially a young, quick one.
