My first TTM yesterday and then another today! Got my 2006 Australia World Cup shirt signed by John Aloisi plus a Melbourne Heart card (he played for them last season before retiring - he is now their Youth Team Coach). Looks like he had difficulty signing the shirt – pen bled a bit and it looks like he had to stop and start.
John Aloisi played for many teams in Europe (Antweep, Cremonese, Portsmouth, Coventry City, Osasuna, Alaves) before coming back to Australia in 2007. He scored the penalty against Uruguay in 2005 that saw Australia qualify for their first World Cup since 1974. He scored 27 goals for his country and was the second Australian to score in a World Cup (after Tim Cahill).
Thanks John – hopefully I can get the rest of the 2006 squad in the future.

The shirt still looks great mate...Nice card too.
Pleased for you.
Will you be sending the shirt out again?

It will be off to Sydney FC next week. Brett Emerton (ex Blackburn) now plays for them. There is also a few others who work at the club who were in the 2006 side so maybe I can get 3 in 1 go. Might be a bit cheeky asking Brett to pass it around though.
