Football Memorabilia

    So how big is yours? (memorabilia collection, of course)

    I have been collecting football memorabilia for a few years now, and have quite a comprehensive collection of Man U programmes, as well as a few medals, tickets and other souveniers going back over many decades.

    I know there is quite a large collector community in the UK (which has been fuelled by Ebay), but was wondering how many fans in Ireland are serious collectors. What are your rarest items, and what are you missing from your collection?

    I have a signed Ossie Ardiles Spurs shirt from 1982.

    My dad was working near Tottenhams training ground for over a year and became very good friends with the man himself after meeting him for breakfast several mornings in a local greasy spoon.

    He even came to our house once for Sunday dinner and and I'll never forget the moment he walked through the door,I could have shat myself,I had a couple of mates around 'cause they didn't believe my dad knew him,I was a hero to my whole school after, quality.
