West is BEST
After reading this article about Charles and Diana’s wedding cake icing I got to wandering what strange items the good folk of NSC might own? Or covet?
Any unusual footy stuff? Film or music etc.
I have a signed Indiana Jones pic and some film cells. The most bizarre thing I have is a badgers skull signed by Chris Packham and some para cord wrist bands from the set of Mad Max.
What about you?

I have a plastic cap thingy from the end of the metal framing that held the seats at the old Wembley.

I have a pair of shin pads that Dean Wilkins ripped off after a match and gave to me, complete with a few of his leg hairs on the taping attached to them. :love:

I also have an high-vis builder's vest/jacket from the Amex construction. It says Falmer Community Stadium on the back and everything! I like to think of it as the first official replica shirt of the Amex era.

Paul Reids boot
Unsurprisingly I own one of Paul Reids socks from the 2004 play off final

Got a few other little bits and pieces and a couple of signed pictures from a film and the tv series Julia Jekyll and Harriett Hyde as my mum taught one of the lads in the series

In a pile of football shirts
I have 2 seats from the South Stand at the Goldstone, the only stand at the ground I never went in.
Also, Lee Steeles balloon from the league winning parade along the seafront.
Norman Cooks rejected sample Palookaville shirt.
A pouch made from a kangaroo scrotum.
2 sets of Albion Russian Dolls from that shop at the end of one of those bridges in Prague.
Several of the banners that were used in the mid 2000s while campaigning for Falmer.

Ah the quality russian dolls.

A 1” x 4mm strip of oxidised green metal I broke off from the inside of The Statue of Liberty in my youth while climbing the internal stairs. Similarly a small, non-essential to structural integrity, red metal clip from the Golden Gate Bridge. It was a misspent youth!

The Fatherland
One of my favourite bands, Super Furry Animals, recorded a song with Paul McCartney chomping on vegtables. It was inspired, or a piss take, of a Beach Boys song where they did similar. I saw the band perform this song with the vegetable accompaniment albeit sans McCartney. At the end the Frau collected up the discarded veggies and the next day made me a stir-fry with them. This is memorabilia of a sort, and it is certainly unusual. More conventionally, I have a framed poster-flyer of the gig aquired from a cafe near to the venue.

Engraved Saddam brooch. Found in a sofa left by the previous owners by my Iranian relatives, ironically.
Jersey Pound Note signed by John Nettles
Miniature cricket bat taken by my dad to a test at Lords where he was in hospitality that instead he thought instead of getting a cricketer to sign, he got the guy who played Uncle Mort in I Didn't Know You Cared to sign it

Must get my eyesight checked as I initially read that as a couch made of Kangaroo scrotum :mad:

Actually should have said 2 brooches. Just dug them out if there are any Arabic speakers. My money is on it saying "Can he play left-back?"
