Ray Crawford.

cobblered — Wed, 09 Feb 2011 18:58:27 GMT

Received my Ray Crawford book, 'Curse of the Jungle boy' today with a really nice dedication and signature from Steve (ethanmartha)

It's a great deal, £13 pounds in all, £3 for postage and the tenner all goes to the hospice Ray is connected to. Feel free to put me right there Steve.
I know things are generally tight but it's a great deal for what looks like a great book.

Thank you Steve.

A really nice purchase there Ralph, nice one mate:)

Thankyou Ralph glad the book arrived safely.
Yes the price is correct,Ray had a couple of boxes of books left from different book signings from around the country which the publishers kindly gave him to sell for charity.Ray has however given every penny he made from the book to the local cancer hospice which is well over 5 thousand pound.
Thankyou everyone for your kind words,I have managed to sell 6 books on here for ray with 2236 members is a little disapointing when its such a good cause and a bargain,must admit did think the member who was so happy with his ttm from Ray would of been in touch.
Anyway will not mention this topic again as dont want to become a bore
all the best

Steve....never boring!! always nice to hear of people doing good for others...not enough of it about I say...there always seems to be a price on things these days which is sad 😞 You keep on mate :)...And well done Mr Crawford keep on doing good for your Charity..
And for all the members that haven't purchased a book it's your loss....my husband had never heard of him (sorry) and was quite surprised when he opened his gift on Christmas morning but this mans life of Football and his War Years make brilliant reading....

Steve - I am truly shocked that only six of us have bought Ray's book. Especially with so many members.

Everyone of us who has read the book is in agreement about how good it is.

It is a fact that only Jimmy Greaves has a better goals to games ration than Ray. Why would football fans not want a stunning piece of memorabilia from such a great striker and football legend?

It is also a fact, as you have stated, that all the money is going to a wonderful charity. That alone should merit a purchase.

Times are hard, but £13 for such a wonderful piece of memorabilia that raises money for a good cause is both possible, and a true bargain.
