    You're right, he did. I think he was already wearing it before joining our club.

    I've zero knowledge of tags, but wouldn't it be dangerous playing football with one - someone could get injured?

    I think cause he was the first (Croft) they (football league) looked into it and deemed it safe. They ain't very big. No bigger n them old shin pads with the ankle bits on them. The ones that Gary crisps used to sponsor . Cant recall the name of the boots he used to wear. Quazar or summit.

    I remember a few years ago drinking in the Carpenter's Arms, Rumney hill. It was Summer time and there was a guy stood at the bar wearing shorts and a clearly visible tag. It was like a badge of honour to him. I'd be ashamed to walk around my neighbourhood with that showing.

    You'd have thought so, wouldn't you. However, around the ankle, an opponent is more likely to feel a boot before that thing connects with them in any way. Possibly more chance of injury to the wearer than anyone else.
