Is genuinely contained in the first paragraph of that article

The full picture that I saw yesterday shows the surroundings a bit better. There's a big sign for Wall of Shame, which I thought was quite apt

 

[Mr Bear]

Looking at the image of the tramp robbing it, looks like it’s been taken from ‘The Hall of Shame’...... not surprised by that position to hang it..... fu(king bheasts.

 

[BlueLagoonCo]

He's probably took it down because it's an embarrassment to his team

 

[bilkobear]

I always thought that was a parody shirt with a design dreamt up but a Bear on FF high on a chemical stimulant? If Filth FC actually wore that I will have to now reconfigure how I view mankind and his place in the universe.
Very troubling.

Was in the Football museum a few years ago.

A big section on Archibald Leitch and all the different main stands he designed with our magnificent main stand being the centre piece

Whoever stole it has got extremely bad taste for a thief,normally they steal things that are desirable.

 

[possilbear2]

Museum.should be in a fvcking bin

 

[Hellsbells]

That was originally reported as the theft of one of the most ugly football shirts. It’s on a wall of shame. The BBC changed it to rare

 

[Mr Biggleston]

Manchester windae cleaners getting desperate.

 

[Gazmac]

Some kids were about to visit, he didn’t want it to cause chaos

Aha the Halloween one ?

 

[BSPECIAL]

The only thing rare about this rag is the fact it was probably washed before being put on display

 

[Peekaboo]

Loved when they had People’s Ford as the sponsor as I would point out how nice the orange and blue was.

 

[Forbear]

Red, white and blue on a poet top. Whoever sent them that design must have been one of us, or a top extractor of urine. Who signed off that tap fae those scum at the time?

 

[WearsideGallantFew]

how did he get in without paying? You've got to walk past main reception where you pay to get in.

 

[Mr.Spock]

The theft occurred at around 2.30pm on Saturday 1 February 2020 when a man entered the museum without paying and stole a football shirt from a gallery on the third floor of the building.

At least it narrows the search for the thief,definitely a mentally challenged.

 

[Fat_zidane]

Santa Ponsa - June - you'll find it.

 

[broxburnranger]

That shit is football's equivalent of the scream

 

[WatersideTrueBlues]

Past incriminating DNA all over it. Across the chest and right up the back

 

[govan86]

Rare? In other words it was clean.

 

[Bluescootger]

How embarassing for him. Not only is he going to be caught and done, he'll need to admit he was stealing one the most ugly tops ever created. He should plead insanity.

 

[nasalsinatra]

The guy was looking for something to clean his shoes with.

 

[Norber]

Fantastically funny misspell on the 2nd line of the report. I sincerely hope it was deliberate .

Shit instead of Shirt

On second thoughts its not a misspell - it is accurate

 

[Goity]

The police should have released this statement: 'The shirt lifter is still at large'

 

[BrunoBear]

The only thing rare about this rag is the fact it was probably washed before being put on display

It really is the daftest things that make you burst out laughing sometimes

 

[Beer Belly Loyal]

Someone at radio snyde has kindly offered to help him find it.

[Bumplittledipper]

Some weeks ago, Celtic fan and shirt collector Paul Lamb (My Celtic Shirts) made people aware that his Celtic football shit had been stolen at the National Football Museum in Manchester. Now the police released images of the thief.

Haha talk about a Freudian slip. This is genuine I haven't altered it, look in the OP's link.

 

[CamBluNoo]

The angle of the camera distorts the image somewhat but who dresses like a garden gnome and is only 2ft tall.

 

[Maxi 4]

That is the worst top I have ever seen in ma 68 years

 

[Bulletproof]

It's lucky they had a picture as the security guards description of the thief was a manky looking tramp in a Celtic top.. Doesn't really narrow it down.

 

[The Hooded Claw]

I dont think it was stolen, it probably chucked itself in the bin

 

[djgers]

Stolen by the fashion police?

 

[Kinbo]

You can buy them on DHgate , same shit quality no doubt
