There are thousands of genuine fans who are totally unaware of the issue here. My old dad, who is in his 80's now and, as such, unlikely to be buying himself a new Rangers top anytime soon will have no idea about this.
It is conceivable that if my parents were in town shopping at some point they may drop in there to pick up something for their great grand kids Christmas totally oblivious to the fact they shouldn't be shopping there.
Telling him would make little difference as he would likely have forgotten by the time he got into town.
There will be tourist who don't know, guys like my old dad who don't know or who have forgotten and, sadly, some who just don't care.
So long as there is a shop there with the Rangers crest it will attract customers.
You can only try to educate as many as possible and to hope that at least some who are enticed in are disappointed in the stock, particularly the absence of the new kit, and make their way elsewhere.
