I sent this book which is the Sportsman's bookclub edition from 1964( Bought off E-bay for £2.99) and not the original from 1962 which I already have a copy off to Ron along with one of the celebration pic's that I'd been sending out to most of the 1966 world cup squad plus a donation to a charity of Ron's choice, Sent this on the 30th of April. Today these items have been returned signed by Ron, He even signed the book in biro with is always nicer than a sharpie I think. Third time lucky as I have tried him on 2 occasions previously without a reply.
Ronald "Ron" Flowers (born 28 July 1934) is an English former professional footballer, most known for his time at Wolverhampton Wanderers. He was a member of England's victorious 1966 World Cup squad, Although his last England cap came before the finals (a friendly win over Norway), he was a member of the squad that won the 1966 World Cup, being the oldest and earliest-capped member of the squad.
Ron Flowers One of the boys from '66, Cheers :-D.
