The official site says a DVD will be made featuring every goal Colin has scored for the club. But it goes on to say it will be a limited edition, why? Surely if this is a product people want it makes sense to supply the demand.

If you say something is a limited edition it means people will snap it up quickly to be sure they don't miss out.

It could actually be an excellent marketting ploy....I think they'll need a 'limited' edition of 500

Or maybe like the alty greatest moments dvd we had to limit it to 200...cough..ahem....due to BBC licensing restrictions.

Either way I'm sure everyone who wants one will get one, the club will make money and colin's achievements will be immortalised in shiney plastic disks.

Supply and Demand !

Less copies means they'll fetch more on Ebay !!

In fact if you mentioned he's signed for United and stick the MUFC badge on, half of Asia and the far east will want to buy a copy !

Loadsamoney !!

It's good marketing in my opinion. It will encourage people to get it now rather than wait until sometime never to buy it.

Actually as daft as it may seem that is a good idea.

Make too many and they will sit around for ages. Im sure if the "limted" number sell out, the club would produce more.

Really depends on who is producing it, and how much it costs to make. There's no point wasting money on something if its over produced. I think its great that the club are doing something like this.

Perhaps as a leaving present Colin can use his new influence to bring a decent man utd side down for a friendly.

although if we get panned by his under 13's it might be a bit disheartening
