European Pin Badges

[Derek1892]

So im one of them people thats a keen collector of Pin badges. I have a huge collection of hundreds of Liverpool ones but mainly interested in past European ones. Ive just recently got hold of a 84 Roma one i had been after for a long time and am still after one from the 84 semi against benfica. Ive only ever seen a pic of it but if its out there i need it in my collection! If anyone has any to get rid of or need themselves give me a shout. Im becoming a boring old fella these days so this is my hobby the misses lets me get away with! Just got this one last night... https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Liverpoo...559683?hash=item442d866983:g:tI8AAOSwpw5bvz23 im normally more for the both team badges but havent seen one like this before so couldnt help myself 😀

Could it be.....are you badgeman?

Nah, he's Ropin.

 

[Derek1892]

Could it be.....are you badgeman?

Sadly not. The lads at the match do take the mick abit and call me him. But like said in the thread not seen him for a few seasons now

[Brizzle]

Did @Piedro or one of his mates once throw badge man's hat in a river?!

 

[doctor_mac]

Poor the badgeman.

 

[Oncy]

Badgeman is dead

When my granddad died we cleaned his house and found some old boxes in the cellar. One of them also contained some pins and badges - I'm unsure whether it would be legal to possess let alone sell such 'memorabilia'....

So I'm afraid I can't help.

 

[tombrown]

Did you send them to Craggy Island?

My Father-in-law's sister was married to an Austrian chap (who died recently). One night, after much schnapps, 'Otto' invited him down to his cellar (always with the cellars). He proudly revealed a room full of 'memorabilia', with flags, banners, non-decomissioned WWII weaponry and other militaria of a National Socialist variety bedecking the walls. My Father-in-law said he sobered up immediately, and nervously withdrew as soon as he politely could, whilst maintaining an outward posture he hoped did not reveal his shock at Otto's Nazi shrine.

Does an Iron Cross count as a pin badge?

That stuff is fetching a pretty penny on ebay right now.

Ive always found it funny how America and England (in particular) are so revulsed by Nazi memorabilia whilst a lot of Eastern Europeans who literally got WIPED out by the 3rd Reich are pretty keen on a bit of Red, White and Black.

Dude, not cool. African Sunset and Alt-Right are the preferred nomenclature these days.

The Germans saw the Celts as being right up there in the league of superior races. Not quite Aryan but like, who is?

Pete Sampara aka Badgeman. It got to the point when he'd be signing autographs before and after home games. He'd do bloody signing sessions outside The Park. At least Dr Fun had a hint of self-irony about him, in the sense that he was one of the most miserable-looking gits I've ever laid eyes on, but Pete the self-styled '12th Man' was just a plain and simple punch magnet. The nadir was when he embellished the badges with a fecking flashing red light (complete with battery pack) he stuck to his fecking HAT! He's calmed down a lot these days - I think he works at the University of Liverpool in some peripheral capacity.

 

[Oncy]

He was fucking brilliant at Tennis mind

 

[Brizzle]

And his brother was great in Bon Jovi

 

[gkmacca]

And also he is dead.

He's not, you're confusing him with Binny. One has badges, the other had bolds.
