Was wondering....PM'd the guy a couple of days back about pre 1960 Ayr homes and he hasn't had the decency even to acknowledge it. Doesn't matter if he doesn't want it, but asking for folk to help him he could at least reply to the pm's he's sent. It's what tends to piss people off on here on occasion, especially me.

Im not sure what a Frank Soo signature is worth. I have a autogragh of his brother Ar Soo.

I was once given a sausage roll by a guy who said his brother's second cousin removed once did a paper round in Bury. Bury's not far from Manchester, and this guy said he once saw George Best going into a branch of Greggs and coming out with a greasy looking bag.
It's quite conceivable that the bag contained sausage rolls. Now I'm not saying that nearly 40 years later the sausage roll that somebody whose name I've forgotten gave me is one of George Best's rolls..but if it was what would it be worth, and would I get more for it with a COA?

Looks like you have a gem there John, perhaps we can swap for the can of fizzy pop that I got from my local team about 12 years ago.

It's not just any can though, Rodney Marsh passed the can to me. He was involved with the club at the time.

Also, whilst studying at uni I worked in a famous burger shop, we had Rio Ferdinand in..... I still have the cloth that I cleaned his table with, how mmuch is this worth? It's not for sale though.

I had not realized until i did some research that Frank played his youth football with one of the local teams on my door step Prescot Cables, i was a "regular at Hope Street in the late 50s watching them play in the Lanc Combination ( sneaking through the fence behind the goal 2-45 Sat afternoons), although i did know that he had a Liverpool conection,Cables had a good side this era and often had gates of over 1,000,do whish i had kept the progs from this time .
Have you had any luck selling said autograph ?.

It's worth Soo much. Thumbs Up

What I love about you red is that make all these inane posts, after being warned under your previous four guises about it, yet you only reply if somebody expresses an interest in buying what you have. You still dont seem to have learnt that it might be nice once in a while to say thank you to people who offer you advice, before running off to plonk your items on ebay.You really dont do yourself any favours.
