Here's how to update your Chelsea jersey (on a serious budget)

You’re welcome, Chelsea fans.

MOST FOOTBALL FANS have been priced out of the affordable football jersey market. Because alliances are fleeting, nobody can afford to get their favourite striker’s name printed on the back any more.

So, with this in mind, this thrifty Chelsea fan has decided to avoid the Roman Abramovich school of economics and come up with an ingenious way of keeping on-trend (as they say in Xposé land) without breaking the bank.

Step 1:

Two strips of adhesive security tape to cover that unsightly “Drog”.

Step 2:

Now, all that’s left is to somehow contort those annoyingly straight number ones into a ’2′ and a ’9′.

And hey presto, you’ve got yourself a spanking new kit that will be the envy* of all your friends.
