- The rights block unauthorised commercial use on products or in advertising, though players and fans can still mimic the gesture non-commercially.
- Filings list broad product classes from apparel and football gear to items such as ice cream, beard trimmers, mopeds, mouse mats and even underwater vehicles.
- The registrations run until November 25, 2034 with renewal available in 10-year periods under UK law.
