Ex players and a long lost reply

Had some great replies lately,including one which I never thought I'd see again.

 

Starting with my surprise reply,I wrote to Jimmy Robertson (ex Ipswich,Arsenal,Spurs,Stoke) in July 2011 and as  time went on assumed it wouldn't come back.When I saw a letter back with an old first class stamp I did wonder what had come back,and I was pleased it was this one!

My next was from an ex Spurs and Scotland legend Alan Gilzean.Alan has been quite reclusive since he retired and has only been to Spurs a couple of times since he retired.I'd had an address for some time which I wasn't too sure of,but a friend of mine who also collects autographs confirmed he has received a reply from it I gave it a go,and got my cards back signed.

Keeping up the ex-Spurs replies,I also got my cards signed by ex Spurs and Charlton player Terry Naylor.

I got some of my last cards signed by ex Argyle and Machester City captain Tony Book
