Trip out

Im off work at min du to the school holidays so id decided i was going to take a trip to visit mr nobby stiles as he's only 40 mins away, so at 10 am this morning a rolled up to his house, went and knocked on the door to be greeted by mr stiles who looked well and smiley, i asked if he would sign my shirt and programme which he did, i also took my fdc with me but decided i wasnt going to ask him to sign those as i didnt want him thinking i was taking the p... , neednt have worried after signing my shirt and programme nobby asked if i wanted anything else signing.....i couldnt resist pulling the fdc out lol i thanked mr stiles and said it was a priveledge to have met him etc he laughed and said dont be daft lad. Got to say i have knocked at mr stiles, mr armfield and mr wilsons houses now and cant believe how fantastic they have all been true gents and 66 LEGENDS

Great story - hope I get to meet the great man myself one day.  Doubt some of today's players will act the same in 45 years time
