As a fan of football all of my life and spending my childhood growing up on Merseyside in the UK, I gave my allegiance to Liverpool Football Club. I am priviledged to have season tickets for games at Anfield and attend as many as I can.When I left my retail management career to try pastures new I thought about how I could include my passion for football at a business level.I decided that I would create an online store to supply football souvenirs,memorabilia and gifts for football fans all over the world.The store can be found at and is being worked on daily as more and more products are added.
Football has always been a major sport around the whole world. The World Cup is played every 4 years as is the Euro Championships. With the sport becoming a big money business due to sponsorships,media exposure,foreign players joining teams from around the world and a larger "celebrity" status being put on some players such as David Beckham, Ronaldhino, Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo it really has exploded into a global empire.You regularly see news clips from asian, indian and african countries showing children kicking a ball around, some with extraordinary skills, who are wearing football shirts of such teams as Manchester United, Liverpool and Arsenal. It is highly unlikely that they will ever get to see these teams play for real but such is the euphoria and fanatical support that surrounds these teams the products are bought in these countries.
As a season ticket holder for Liverpool FC I have to make a 250 mile round trip from my home in Birmingham to watch my team play. I often travel abroad to watch European games too.I am lucky to have the opportunity to do this and quite often purchase goods from the club stores at the football ground and in the city centre.Some fans have never seen their team play in a stadium or visited their home ground. They have merely watched them on television. This being said doesn't hold them back from having souvenirs and memorabilia to show their support.These include bedroom sets such as duvet sets,lamps and rugs. Stationery products for school, golf products, wallets and tankards.There really is a broad spectrum of products available bearing football clubs names and logos.
The site is expanding daily and will be including many world team products in the run up to the 2010 World Cup in South Africa.
