Has anyone got any idea who has signed this Paul Madeley Testimonial brochure? Looks like Albert Ames to me but that name doesn’t ring any bells. http://footballprogrammecentre.co.uk/forum/userpix/1 ...

Holtie, that’s a great item. I see Bobby Young didn’t sign it! I was talking to an Evertonian who is in his seventies and still follows them home and away. I asked him which Everton player that yo ...

Raxfactor, he’s an interesting guy and a good fit for Tranmere. Next season could be a good each-way bet for promotion. In some ways they are a bit of a quirky club. Can’t imagine other clubs havi ...
