footballmemorabilia.club and the associated X accounts are owned and run by Rob Clarkson, a dedicated football fan from the red side of Sheffield.
Rob's business partner is a big eBay user and wanted a way to search eBay for the items that are popular in his area of expertise (he's one of the UK's largest video collectors). After playing around with the eBay and Twitter APIs, Rob created a system which would connect to eBay, search for popular items and automatically post them to their Twitter accounts.
As the idea grew, Rob created a number of his own (now) X accounts and plugged in the system to eBay. Those accounts quickly amassed over 25,000 followers eager not to miss out on football memorabilia. By the end of their 2nd year, Rob was running 20 accounts and had generated over £165,000 of sales on eBay.
From this promising start, the idea of footballmemorabilia.club was born - a single website dedicated to helping fans find their favourite football memorabilia.
As well as footballmemorabilia.club, Rob also runs a network of other football websites including:
