    Not for sale but you can have you photo taken with it when you visit today or Sunday.

    Some prefer the playoff trophy

    Gonna try & get there today. Will bring scrapbook. Baring in mind I work for Greenwich council, it should never be a problem for visit. But all my work seems to be in sunny Eltham. I'm off work today & am looking forward to seeing museum.

    Will this be the plan for the early KO's against Cardiff and Sheffield Wednesday?

    Feel bad about not coming along to the Museum after todays game as said Id be more than interested in making the effort should opening times be more accessible (which you have done) - Unfortunately I've got plans this afternoon / evening) so have to head off straight away

    Went Friday & all I can say, it's an aladdins cave of everything I/we love as fans. My 10 year enjoyed it, unfortunately my 1 year was kicking off when we got engrossed reading something. So can't wait to get back (minus baby). All I hope is when the new owners eventually arrive, that they embrace the museum & give up a massive area to put everything out. Well worth a visit. Was well impressed with the amount of pics from the 'Sunday fans volunteer clear up' before the return to the valley. Also mentioned to the guy, I would look for the blue away kit I might have from season 85-86 in the loft.

    Are you gonna be open after the 12:30 Saturday games this month?
    Couldn't stick around yesterday cos my lift had to get gone.
    Can't get to regular Saturdays cos of the 2 hour interval before the game.

    We'd be displaying shirt like those @oohaahmortimer not selling.

    We only sell the more common shirts when we have duplicates and then only with permission of donors

    Ditto the yellow shirt @Elthamaddick

    Same applies to all donations. We always say to donors of  programmes for example that we keep the best condition copy and sell others to raise funds.

    Gonna come to museum after the game , with my two youngest , I’m in the  family stand so is there a lift or preferably stairs we can take from around there to get up to you .
    I‘ll find it .

    I’ll have all 3 shirts with me , my youngest wanted the red Osca one and started wearing it cos it’s similar to this seasons but now I can get him a new one the museum can have it (it’s been in the freezer for the last week the mrs put it in there to try and remove the bits of blu tack from it 🤷‍♂️)

    Henry, I think you have this one. Couldn't find my old 85-86 third kit, but see you have it above.
