why would people want to buy un-town related things? by that i mean still football, but not town, obviously the rick stein book is a must for any cookery fan and culham cd's for anyone that wants to vent anger at physical things.
is it a case of beggers not being able to be choosers?

Well those items have reserves so I suspect they might end up on e bay?
or maybe someone may want them as a gift or something.

Well, there's plenty of football memoribilia collectors who would find some of these things interesting. Then there may be "second team" fans - one of the items missed off the list above for some reason is a signed "photo cell" thing of Liverpool's CL-winning squad in Instanbul, which would be well worth having to both general collectors (cos it'll be valuable) and to Liverpool fans (and let's face it, there's plenty of them in Swindon).
And obviously turbot-recipe fans will be piling down in droves!

the first team train? really? Now, be nice. Actually I'd quite like one of the those who're ever so quick to have a go about the team being unfit to bid on this, just to see how long they'd last! |

Just found the details on that Liverpool ltd edition thing:
Liverpool - European Cup Final Winners limited edition. Framed Hand Cut Film Cells of the Champions League Final victory in Instanbul. Limited edition of 2000, only just been released by Liverpool FC & Granda TV, valuable to collectors and obviously Scousers.

I'm going for that Wolves pennant.
I think those non swindon items are to lure non Swindon fans.

Training with the squad would be ace! Shame i have no money to bid with. It's a little known fact that i did work experience at Oxford United and spent a day training with the squad, including a 5 mile run, in which I beat some of their players (I applied to do WE at Swindon, but they shunned me  ) |
