                Special Fathers Day Gifts for the sports mad Dad!
            
                Does your dad's devotion to his football club come a close second behind his family? Or do you suspect he'd probably cash you in for tickets to the cup final? Either way, it's an obsession that needs feeding. And what better way to feed it than to get him football themed Fathers Day gifts? GettingPersonal.co.uk know exactly what kind of things dads like, so you're already in the right place to find Fathers Day gifts straight from the starting line-up.

Let's start with the simple things. Like mugs. Every man needs a mug all of his own. What he does with it is his business, but until he has been bought a mug (he'll never buy one himself), he will have to endure curious stares and even pity from those around him. The best kind of mug, of course, is one that says a little bit about him on the outside, all of which brings us back to football. Simply having some reference to his chosen club on his mug will instantly buy him respect and admiration and could well become an invaluable conversation starter and social lubricant. It's that important.

A club's mark can be stamped on almost any object, transforming even the most mundane household or office implement into another expression of his pride. GettingPersonal.co.uk have a great range of pens, wallets, coasters, bottle openers, business card holders, hip flasks and cuff links featuring the badges or colours of most of the major clubs.

If fantasy is his thing, especially fantasies involving a muddy field and twenty-two other men, GettingPersonal.co.uk have the tools to fulfil it. First up is the Personalised Football Commentary. You provide his name and a few details about his footballing goodies and baddies, and a professional commentator will record an ultra-realistic radio commentary where your dad is the hero. Next, if you can provide us with a photograph of him, we'll digitally manipulate the team photo of your choice to include him, and then print it on quality canvas. These one-off Fathers Day gifts put your dad right at the heart of the day's celebrations.

A hugely popular gift is the Football Share Gift Box - a gift of genuine shares in a football club. There are several top clubs to choose from, and this could well be his dream Father's Day gift. You never know, it might make him think twice about swapping you for those cup final tickets.
