Title: Free to a good home
Post by: Ginginho on Thursday, August 25, 2016, 12:35:37
I've got this signed football if anyone wants it.

I won it in a charity auction a few years ago but it's just taking up space so if nobody wants it, i'm throwing it out.
I think it's from 2011-2012 season, it has Aden Flint, Jonathan Smith, etc. I can't make out any of the others.
One or two of the signatures are slightly smudged.

If anyone wants it as a keepsake or for a charity auction or something let me know.

I've still got two Town footballs signed by Simon Cox after his hattrick at Hartlepool.

Amazing what shit survives moves etc.

Does that guy who was always trying to flog his matchworn shirts for silly money still post? I reckon he'd give you at least £40 for a signed football.

Flog it on eBay and make yourself a few quid.

I've got what is surely one of the most prized mementos in football history.

You remember when Lou Macari was re-instated as manager following demonstrations after his sacking in what, 1985, don't you.  You know they kicked some signed balls into the crowd as a gesture of appreciation (or was it wayward shooting in the warm up? Time plays tricks and all that.  I was half way up the North Stand mind), leaping like a salmon I  caught it then and I treasure it now.*

Anyway,  so yep, no mistake, one of those is ALL MINE.

*come to think of it, I haven't seen it since 1987.  Must check dad's garage.

I have one of those, too, and another one from a couple of years later.  They used to raffle them in the Rendezvous Bar after matches.
