A POLITE footie dad who bought an England shirt on eBay was stunned when it arrived with “Kane Please 9” printed on the back.
Richard Dexter wanted the kit to feature Three Lions skipper Harry Kane’s name and number.
But his good manners proved an own goal as dimwit staff literally took him at his word.
He unwrapped the away jersey for nine-year-old daughter Lily to find his “please” also included on the back.
Richard, 37, said: “This was meant to soften the blow of losing the Euros final to Italy on penalties.
“Lily was as gutted as us all. But Harry Kane was her favourite England player and I thought this would lift her spirits.
“I went online and bought the shirt, before asking for Kane’s name on the back with the number 9. They say manners cost you nothing but in this case they have cost me £30.”
Lily was initially too embarrassed to wear the shirt but now sees the funny side.
Richard, of Hull, who works for a sports education trust, posted a snap of the blunder online.
He said: “It’s good that we have been able to make people smile and we’ll definitely keep the shirt as a memento rather than returning it for a refund.”
Other Twitter users shared their shirt printing blunders.
Mark Worrall asked for “no name and just 7” but it came with “Just” on the back.
And Guy Clubb said his shirt arrived with “N/A” after he declined the free printing.
