Recent TTM's including a few possible secs :(

[matty2702]

Hello again folks. I haven't contributed for a few weeks as I went away for a week and work has been pretty manic as we have an impending OFSTED (:-() visit due anything we think. I've also been busy decorating and have been sorting out my collections into folders to create a bit of space. Congrats to all successes and have a few of my own to share. I'm not going to do them individually, but am going to group them. Did also manage a West Ham IP last week, so will include those successes also. Really enjoyed it and got chatting to West Ham chairman, David Gold. What a great guy he was, so down to earth (altough he wouldn't let me drive his rolls royce around the hotel car park!)

Managers Project - this has been pretty fruitful over the last few weeks and is pregressing well. I currently have 65 out of 92 Football League managers and 11 out of 12 Scottish Premier League managers so doing ok.

Championship successes - Chris Hughton, Gus Poyet, Andy Thorn, Steve Cotterill, Nigel Adkins, Sean Dyche

plus I've also received four Match Attax cards back from Everton this week which don't seem right. I got Everton IP last season and the Baines in particular looks nothing like my IP example. I would appreciate any feedback about them from others as I know Everton are notorious for secs (though I always thought Cahill and Bilyaletdinov sent out authentics.)

Tim Cahill  - received Monday 7thb November

Some great graphs there Matty...As you Know Everton are notorious for sending back sec's so you might be right with your conclusion.

Nice to see you back.

[ethanmartha]

still a fantastic few weeks even if there are a couple of secs in there

[obree]

Good to see you back Matty with some great replies , I hope your Everton ones are ok .

[westiesx2]

Nice haul of graphs Matty. Some really good cards in there, especially your own. Hope the Everton cards are okay. Well done pal.

congrats Matty a great haul of items there as for everton I can only see 2 possible secs..Cahill has 2 ways of signing ive had both ip and it matches up well to yours so cahill is fine, Bily also looks good to me..the ones which look off are baines and osman..baines signs similar to how yours is done but never seen that sort of 'A' bit at the start and the top of the loop on the 'L' looks a bit shakey same with osman really his sig is usually readable as opposed to the squashed looking one you have, again looking slightly shakey near the end as opposed to nice round loops etc so for those reasons thats why Im assuming the last 2 are secs....as Alex says everton as well as spurs are known for it at everton only cahill, bily, moyes(as long as you send something to him), jagielka, drenthe, and distin sign authentically via everton for future reference for anyone who is planning to write to players there 🙂

There are some terrific replies there, Matt. Shame about the secs. What is the point of them? It's nothing less than deception.

Any reason why Robert Green didn't want to sign?

[sid8066]

well done that is a great collection , unlucky with the everton secs you should write back and point it out and tell them you know what they are doing ???

[robboh2006]

great haul mate good to see u back we got ofstead'd earlier in year and i got observed twice lol not best experience but managed to get outstanding along with school.

[rcsmg1]

Some great signed cards there Matt well done.I agree with the Everton comments,not sure on the Baines (the L) and Leon Osman sigs.

[thehornets]

Some lovely successes reported, and good you picked up on the secs. The Sean Dyche is the pick of the bunch. 😉

[serenamorgan]

some great graphs in amongst that lot, well done
