I have tried Brian Kidd several times TTM Via Man Utd, Portsmouth and Man city without any luck I even E-mailed City again when he went back in 2009 to see if he would reply to any requests...No E-mail reply back. So I thought sod it..I sent this European cup programme programme from 1968/69 season already signed by 8 of the 11 that played on the night..This was sent to Man City in July last year I did say in my letter that at the end of the day No one owed me an autograph and if hedidn't want to sign it I'd understand but please could he return it to me as it has been a labour of love and if he ever passed through Accrington or Clayton-Le-Moors he was more than welcome to visit me and see the signed programme still in my collection Today it has been returned signed by City's Assistant Manager.. WOOHOO. Only Toy Dunne now to sign it tocomplete the line up...Of course I'll be trying him.
Brian Kidd (born 29 May 1949 in Collyhurst, Manchester) is an English football coach and former player, who works as the Assistant Manager at Manchester City. He was assistant manager to Alex Ferguson at Manchester United in the 1990s. He was also a member of the Manchester United team which won the European Cup in 1968. Thank you ever so much Brian Kidd...Now who said he doesn't sign TTM. Happy days are here again... Alex "Balls of Steel"

Please be aware that Tony Dunne is a nightmare ttm. I had to visit him at home to get him to sign and that was dodging his son next door.:)

I know mate, Also found out that Jimmy Ryan started the game and was subbed by John Fitzpatrick so It's Jimmy Ryan first I think.

You've certainly got what it takes Alex. It was quite a risk to send that to him but, it was worth it. Result! Good luck completing the project.
