Very nice, how did you even track down Michael Wallace?! What part of the country is he from? Oddly enough, they didn’t come from him. Will share all the details when they arrive with me. They’re the pics from the other ex-player I’m getting them off, should be with me early next week. It's mad how these ex players move shirts on so freely with no real sentiment attached to them, I know the Burnley match is an easy game for him to forget but I'd cherish anything that I had if I played at that level. I'm bad enough having a rummage through the box of old trophies and medals from when I was a kid that's at my parents every couple of years. I've got one of Neil Edwards boots from Wembley and I can't wait to pass it on to my lad when he appreciates stuff like that. |

I've got one of Neil Edwards boots from Wembley and I can't wait to pass it on to my lad when he appreciates stuff like that. Some are very sentimental. Jim has got all his County shirts locked in a box. He’s not got every single one he wore but the majority are there, he bought them down to show me when I got the Romania off him. A lot of players who I’ve got shirts off recognise the collection I’ve got and are glad to contribute to it. I’m not some oddball with 20 replicas who has been doing this 5 minutes, I’ve got 400 County shirts, 350 of which are match worn dating back to the 60s. It’s as good a single club match worn shirt collection as you’ll see anywhere in the world. I’m yet to find a better one. Other players do try and get as much out of me as possible, which isn’t really in the spirit of things, but then they never really got the big footballers wages so a few hundred quid is a decent amount. Just to say the guy I got these off was great. Very fair price, had a great chat with him. Any guesses who it was? |

That football shirt company are based in hyde ski they're local I will get an exhibition up for a week or two when I can. I was hoping to do it last year but COVID did for that. Probably ruined this year too. But it will happen. And it’ll be ace. But it’ll need some sponsorship/backing to make it worthwhile. The collection deserves a professional exhibition, not some half arsed attempt. And it’d take days and days to set it up properly. It’s just a matter of getting to it. Classic Football Shirts aren’t interested in putting one club exhibitions on, they’re far too big for that now. |

If we were on telly, I don’t think he would be a completely Pointless answer, but it’s not a Gannon, Flynn, Todd name either. |
