Im wondering what kind of Football Memorabilia collection people have?
Things like Match Programs, socks or whatever?

I myself collect playing kits, preferably match worn and mainly A-league and old NSL. But have english, european and New Zealand things too.

Im just curious as what other people collect and have. And if people actually set out to find certain items too.

Serious answers.Stefan2009-11-19 17:37:56

To be honest, I don't get people who buy things that are already signed by players.  Have the fun is stalking players and getting them signed yourself.

I set out on collecting every A-League teams scarves. But that didn't end up well. And my new project is to try and get everyone from the All Whites club shirts. Might end up with quite a few Phoenix shirts !

I succeed in the scarf department. I picked up a few of them from rebel in Sydney for $5. A few from the A-league online store and others from shops.

Thats a very impressive wall, my wall is poor at the moment, just two Retro Rickis, and two Phoenix tops. Hoping the summer break which features both my birthday and Christmas will see my football memorabillia soar.

Where would be the ideal place to get shirts with official name and numbers on them from clubs such as Plymouth and West Brom ?
 
And then the MLS ones as well...

Only a few of the things I have bought were bought signed.
I have sent things away, and am going to try to get to away teams trainings when they get here to get them signed.

Its a bit sad buying all these things, but its fun. I like it.
Its the thrill of the chase for me.

So Stefan, which do you grab in case of fire? Not that I would ever hope that happens. I feel for your mum though, keeping the dust off those items must be a full time occupation.
 
Me? I collect a few things. The odd jersey, some photos, I have a few autographed programmes such as the 1982 FA Cup Final one signed by the entire QPR squad that day. I gave Miles Davis an autographed West Ham Year book from about 1979ish. I used to collect QPR coffee mugs.
 
I have become interested in collecting Nix gear. Sadly the shop and/or FFA are not fully grasping the idea of football memorabilia.

Lol. They are all on coat hangers on pins, so if there was a fire I could rush around and grab everything.

The FFA do framed football shirts and signed prints and things like that only for Grand Final Winners. (Except Newcastle?) I have a Champions scarf from their win but thats all I think that they had, maybe a cap?

Melbourne do the most, caps, framed shirts, signed photos. So good.
Wish the Nix would..

But those are just the straight nix pins aren't they? Not with the 2009/10 date at the bottom.

If they are available let me know where - not in the shop (I've arksed)

- Tickets to various Phoenix games (Adelaide, Newcastle, L.A.)
- Ticket to All Whites Bahrain game.
- Phoenix poster signed by everyone in the original squad including George!
- A page showing pics of the Knights players with all the stats below it and signed by all the players.
- Wellington Phoenix Cup.
- Wellington Phoenix scarf.
- All White On The Night tee-shirt.
- One Shot For Glory badge.
- Retro-Ricki signed by all of the Phoenix squad from season two except Smeltz and Ferrante - I was dumb enough to get John Kosmina to sign it but am now happy he did as he played for Arsenal (once, hilarious) and he's a douchebag.
- Many newspaper clippings from our victory over Bahrain that I shall keep long into the future.
- Wellington Phoenix cap signed by Costa, Felipe, and Juninho.
- Corinthian dolls of Patrick Kluivert and Sol Campbell.
- Wellington Phoenix shirt signed by Ricki Herbert.
- Autograph sheet from the All Whites vs Malaysia match with signatures from Andy Barron, Jeremy Brockie, Ricki Herbert, and Danny Hay.
- Programme of the Phoenix vs Mainland signed by Shane Smeltz
- Pictures with all the All White players and management who were at the parade after the Bahrain game.

I probably value the last one the most.  Have already backed up those photos in two places to make sure I never lose them.
