Random question really... Was looking through of some my swindon town gear and by far the best thing I own is the 100 greats of Swindon Town FC book. Why? simply it is signed by loads of players including...
- Sam Parkin - John Gorman - Martin Ling - Jimmy Allan - Leigh Barnard - Paul Bodin - Colin Calderwood - Fraser Digby - Peter Eastoe - Jan Age Fjortoft - Charlie Henry - Dave Hockaday - Ernie Hunt - Chris Kamara - Lou Macari - Alan McCloughlin - Dave Moss - Duncan Shearer - Nicky Summerbee - Shaun Taylor - Rod Thomas - John Trollope - Don Rogers - Andy Rowland - Alan Mayes - Steve White
Also signed by whole squad from 2006/07 promotion season and Paul Sturrock

I've got a signed 86 crewe programme, signed 93 squad photo, and a 2003 signed football, and have come to the conclusion after looking over the signatures that footballers cant write very well.

I don't need possessions to remind me of the club because I'm a better fan than you.

I'd say the few shares I own. It means I can go to AGMs and berate the board members in a silly high pitched voice. I miss doing that behind the Arkells stand.

A signed ball from about 1997, with Iffy Onuora, Chris Hay, Mark Walters, Alan Reeeeeves etc
Not exactly our greatest ever side but it's the Swindon team I started supporting

A signed ball which was kicked into the Arkells by Paul Bodin the year we gained promotion to the Premiership ... got all the players on there including Hoddle and Gorman - I was lucky enough to catch it that day

A match programme for every game I have ever been to. My own personal STFC diary, currently spanning 18 years. (Regretfully, this meant parting with cash in the certain knowledge it was going to Diamandis, until recently.)

97/98 was the side which were near the top at Christmas before royally fucking it up weren't they? Although the away day at QPR with Iffy's debut and Alan McDonald going in goal was fucking mint. From '97 you say? surely Iffy didn't sign until around February 98. Unless I'm getting my seasons mixed up, which is very likely.

It was more a case of the league table being ridiculously flattering. We never looked remotely like a top of the table side IMO. Yes of course we won a few games but we never looked terribly convincing. That's how I remember it anyway.

Have you actually written notes on all the games you've been to?
