HC Deb 18 January 1949 vol 460 cc7-8W
62. Mr. Hollis

asked the President of the Board of Trade whether he is aware that football clubs are only allowed to make bulk purchases of football jerseys of the number of eleven or multiples of eleven; and whether, in view of the fact that it takes fifteen to make a rugby football team, he will take steps to alter this rule.

Mr. H. Wilson

There is no rule that restricts the purchase of football jerseys to multiples of eleven, but if the hon. Member has a particular case in mind, and will give me details, I will look into it.
