More like without its everyday members, there wouldn't be a forum.

Yep the members pay the bills. Lets just scrap sponsors all together eh. Yes members make the forum, and without members this wouldnt exist, but when it comes to recommending where people should buy, why is the stock answer, online stockist or ebay, rather than a sponsor?

Lets be honest, nearly every member on here is a know it all whatsit who thinks that they know best and what a "true bargain" is. In reality we are not. We have limited knowledge gleaned from a forum like this, which without a sponsor would struggle to afford server space.

There's a bloke in Yeovil who has done all the hard work of importing the pads from Online Stockist already, and is selling the exact sam pads on at a slightly higher cost (I think the Test ones are £45 including delivery, and the other ones are £40 including delivery)

Exactly the same pad and without the hassle of waiting! Alternatively, Kieron has some of last years spirit top of the range pad for £30

cannot get my mind round how much of a bargain this is!

I use these currently, very nice. I'm quite tempted to buy a 2nd pair to have as match day pads or to follow on from current pads.

We have

2012 bulldog spirit pads £30
Newbery Uzi £22
Newbery thruxton £60
2013 bulldog spirit £60

Someone brought a pair of SS pads that they bought from online stockest into the shop last week. They were very small. No bigger than youth pads.

The ss pads from there are small men's but some do slip into youths

The blank pads they sell online stickiest are small men's I can confirm this Gavin owned both pairs of there blank pads.

Batman sells better size of pad.

Bulldog do sell some decent pads no doubt though

There some decent deals around on pads both on the forum and away from the forum just don't get blinkered by the forum vajazzile

Yeh the legend gloves are great however it's hard to make a decision as when I netted with Dave (procricket) he had the SS embossed pads and they looked very good so it's a hard choice mate however I do love my lorimers kit :)

Fair point mate, my mate bought a lorimers bat with purple stickers kind of like the Cadbury gt colour and it had a kookaburra toe guard on :o
