Dear Mr C Rap

I recently purchased a football goal from your shop. The picture on the packaging made the goal look perfect for our backyard and my energetic football loving son.

When I got it home and assembled it I was shocked to discover that the goal wasn’t the same size as the goal on the packaging.

Please note exhibit A and B below. I look forward to hearing your thoughts on this matter.

Kindest regards

Dear Mrs D

Thank you for your letter regarding the purchase of one of our super products.

We too were shocked to see the photos of your giant child.

Perhaps football isn’t for him.

Kind regards

The child on the box is clearly the new Arsenal protegee he is 4 and has been put into the 8 year old squad. Its your fault for trying to buy one of the Arsenal goals…

Hmmm, I see your dilemma. Maybe they can exchange your giant child for a smaller model?

He is, indeed a giant. I mean look at the size of the football, it is tiny! And yellow.

You may have a case for false advertising? Hope they get back to you with a refund or at the very least a bigger set of goalposts.x
