Fans Face Legendary Name Drought…
Manchester United fans stormed the Old Trafford megastore like bees on honey, seeking the thrill of having legendary names woven into fabric. But alas, the dream of sporting Cantona, Beckham, or Ronaldo on their backs vanished faster than a referee’s patience on derby day. Those hoping to strut around like football gods just hit the crossbar of disappointment.
A sign at the megastore reads with all the charm of a red card: the club can’t print the big three’s names due to mysterious ‘licensing wizardry.’ Apparently, the club doesn’t possess the sacred powers—or in this case, the trademarks. Even Real Madrid tip-toes around printing the Ronaldo moniker on shirts, guarding his name like a keeper with sticky gloves.
Confounded fans took to X (RIP Twitter) to express their surprise through avatars and hashtags. One exclaimed, “That’s really weird,” while another pondered, “What if I call my son Beckham?” Alas, as strange as a manager substituting his goalie in the 90th minute, trademark rules have struck once again. Just imagine a world where names like Beckham are scarce—it’s weirder than a VAR decision on a sunny day!
