Haven't had a chance to post lately as I've been a bit involved with BT lately.Why is it after internet companies 'upgrade' or 'improve' things,everything goes wrong.
BT have 'improved' their email systems from Yahoo to BT,and in the process have 'lost' all of my inbos messages for the last 3 years! After numerous phone calls I have received the helpful answer of 'we've done all we can' needless to say I'm not very happy and still progressing a complaint with them. I don't think we've lost anything major,other than copies of bills,a few addresses and a load of other messages together with confirmation of hotel and ticket reservations which can be sorted out,but only after a lot of time and numerous calls.
Anyway,rant over...
Two purchases from my local Waterstones,a signed Lynda La Plante (my wife's reading that) and a signed John Bishop (I'll be reading that one!)
My replies-
Former Spurs,Fulham and England player Alan Mullery via Fulham (I only noticed how bad the picture was after uploading!)
Alan Oakes - former Manchester City,Chester and Port Vale (via Manchester City)
Peter Bonetti ex Chelsea,Dundee United and England (via Chelsea) each card signed slightly differently-the last being signed in capitals!
And finally Joe Kinnear,ex Spurs,Brighton,Wimbledon and Luton via Newcastle

nice book purchases rob,and as usual intersting reto cards,alan oakes id forgotten about,certainly brings back memories of collecting these cards as a child

Great set of replies and purchases there. Joe Kinnear has a poor reputation these days - with good reason in some ways - and especially so at my club Forest from his time here but I like him. I met him while he was at Forest and he was great fun and very open and I have a nice 10x8 that he signed for me at the time.
Anyway enough of my tangents well done on all of those.

Excellent set of signed footie cards, Rob and the books are nice additions too.
It's fun trying to contact BT isn't it? For a communication company they can be very hard to talk to.

Cracking buys and some great cards mate I used too work with Alan Mullery son when I worked in London very different in looks and his son was very quiet and oddly never talked about his dad ,as for bt internet well when they said they were changing email I decided too goto sky and moved everything I needed from bt too sky but a lot of people are complaining about exactly the same thing.
And thats a rare thing too get from Bonetti signed with just a P i have only ever seen 2 other examples of this well done:)

Sorry to hear of your BT woes, it is not fun when a so called communication company fails you in a major way.
On the plus side, some fantastic replies from great legends of the game, and two nice purchases. Nice big sig from John Bishop - I like that.
