Oh no not this again.

What criteria are you using?

Most collectors, richest collectors etc etc

I think this post is a ploy to stir up more club v club rivalry on here.

We will even be having Premier League club collectors having their say.

Very difficult to assess because at some of these clubs there may be 2 collectors who force up prices others with big budgets eg Wimbledon and there may be other clubs with more collectors but with smaller budgets but my league table, which is sure to attract controversy is as follows:

1. Leeds
2. Plymouth
3. Wolves
4. Wimbledon
5. Portsmouth
6. Oxford/Headington
7. Ipswich
8. Brighton
9. Cardiff
10.Bournemouth
11. Bristol Rovers
12. Exeter
13 Notts County
14 Charlton
15. Millwall
16. Newport

The following are close to that pack and could argue a position there would be Brentford, Forest, Bristol City, Bradford City, Luton and Gillingham.

It would be interesting to know how you worked this list out.

[RoddyN]

Intuition and experience.

The other thing is that some clubs are very strong in Programmes some on tickets some on menus and some on Press Photos and Badges. I presume we are talking programmes. I think it is a pretty safe bet to put Leeds at the top of the programme collectors League but I accept that there could be some arguments amongst others. But it is a stab and based on my experience.

That will increase prices for Pompey programmes once dealers see they are on a top 16 list.

[RoddyN]

But true in my experience. Always well supported and collected. Do you deny this ?

Why would I deny this, assuming you were responding to my message (you didn't include a quote).

Portsmouth would definitely be on my list but I am not sure about some of the others.

What is your list ?

I knew that was coming.

I don't have a list, never had one and don't propose to concoct one either.

I really don't see the point which is why I posted my initial response to the o/p.

I'll leave it to you and others to come up with a definitive list.

[RoddyN]

Mine is not a definitive list but is a light hearted best stab.

There are far more Bradford Park Avenue collectors than there are Bradford City

[RoddyN]

Agreed but was restricting it to present League Clubs
