Heritage/Memorabilia : Tue Apr 06, 2021 2:06 pm  

Was wondering. Does the club have much memorabilia that it has collected over the years?? 40 years is a long time. I know there are the framed shirts that I remember from The Stoop and Ealing, but we must have a few bits (the million pound trophy being another). Anyone know?? its a shame we have no where to display any bits. I know the LBSA has a brilliant Archive coming along, but again its a shame there is now where to display it. As a fan from when we became Quins RL, its great to find out about the club before that etc

LBSA has a massive amount of memorabilia which we donated when we moved house. As we were downsizing we asked Steve if he would like them and he was really pleased and actually put himself out and drove from Southampton to Walton to collect as we were so busy packing. There are signed shirts, players shirts as we were sponsors, signed balls, photos, programmes etc etc. There was a 20+ year history. I'm sure Steve will have lovingly looked after them and eventually they will be displayed.

I believe that the club has no memorabilia whatsoever. Gus Mackay as I understand it wanted what they did hold thrown out. Although some was saved.by a long time member of staff.
The shirts from the Stoop were put up at Bushey, however when we moved out, they were thrown in a skip only to be saved by a fan and given to the LBSA.
All the memorabilia of any consequence is held by the LBSA, thankfully.

Shocking, thank goodness for LBSA, do a great job

For all the good work that the Lisa have done for the club, including their sponsorship pf the Academy.
The club have shamefully, intentionally tried to undermine them with their Official Supporters Group.
Without prior consultation, I might add.

That is the LBSA not Lisa.

To be fair the club have never recognised the LBSA as an official part of the business. The Supporters Group is managed by the club

Im unsure why they would need to consult.

Surely it would have just been common courtesy for the club to have advised the LBSA ot their intentions to form an OSG.

Website needs adjusting but most of the programmes we have in the Archive at least are shown here https://www.lbsa.org.uk/archive/. Funnily enough a supporter contacted us today with a collection to donate. As well as programmes we have framed shirts, Fulham Annua Dinner Menus, Lee Hopkins boots!
