Stickers, good idea! We might see a bit more cohesion in the side.

Foreign postal rates are a bit prohibitive. Where, precisely? I'll catch you at the ground next time I'm over MT. Postal system here is poor, I've been waiting 3 weeks on some Malaysian electronics parts as it is. |

Bought this for my Dad's 70th. Pretty much the whole family not happy with my purchase. Dad just wanted to read it most of the afternoon!! He thinks it's fantastic!!
Could be a tough day for sales tomorrow Roger going head to head v the new 'Smile a While, CD at the same price and on launch day for the equally fantastic charity track!!!!
Let's hope plenty of people have £6!!!
And we outperform Burnley like last season.

I'm the good looking owd booger that bought one from you before the Brum debacle. After I regained my interest in football (about the Wednesday!) I had a good look at the book and really enjoyed wallowing in nostalgia - 3 quid well spent.

Great book Roger, definitely recommend it to all on here. I bought it as a little extra gift for my Dad this Christmas, but I'm sure most Town fans would find it interesting. Great quality too. Can't go wrong for a few quid!

Cheers, Andy! And for anyone else interested, I'll be standing again for the Yeovil match (weather permitting) or you can order from my website - like Andy did! |

Got my two from Rowland on Boxing Day mate. Cheers - except how come you didn't autograph them ??
I'm sort of joking, but maybe you should ?
I gave one to my Dad, and he got so engrossed in it that my mother's constant blather just went right over his head.
You could market it as a blather deflector.

Phil, I always offered to sign them when I sold them on eBay and Amazon - but hardly anyone ever took up the offer!
I don't see myself as THAT MUCH of a celebrity ...

Incidentally, I've had some great craic with visiting fans recently whilst standing at the car park. Q "How much are the programmes?" A "Three quid" Q "Can I have two, please?" A "Certainly, but these aren't programmes ..." Q "What's your local radio frequency, please?" A "103.2 - but I live in Mansfield ..." Q "6-0 to the Rams today, pal!" A "Just like last season then, when your defence lasted under 60 seconds ..." Q "Yer fanzine's crap!!" A "Maybe, but this isn't a fanzine ..." Oh, how I enjoy standing around for 40 minutes in the cold! |

Out of interest do you need the permission of the club to sell your book/fanzine/programme?
Was thinking of doing something similar myself one day when I get some time.

Yes you do. And did I have trouble with that! Originally I stood much closer to the stadium but was forever moved on by stewards. Contacted the club who said that I would be OK off the Tarmac area so I stand right at the very edge of the entrance. Also, I didn't try to sell whilst the club shop stocked my book. But they only took 100 copies so it didn't last long! Now I have a copy of a letter giving me permission to stand roughly where I do OR close to the old Boothy info box which is now a drinks bar. I also don't shout out my wares like a Victorian street urchin as that attracts attention. In return I haven't been bothered by stewards for years now. But beware! I haven't sold many copies of my book. Been selling since October 2008 and it still owes me! I need to sell another THIRTEEN copies before I cover my outlay, and that's at the reduced price of £3 each  |

I will try to buy a copy tomorrow. Make it 1 closer to breaking even! |

It has shown great ambition, for sure.
Whether he plays alongside or instead of JV remains to be seen.
I'm sure that he has the talents and the ability to prosper in this league.

Roger Books fantastic,
Anyone else who's thinking they might get one... DO!
It's a great little book which tells Town's story through a lovely collection of...... surprisingly enough the cards and stickers that used to be widely produced and distributed by people like the cigarette companies. Roger obviously really knows his stuff and writes with a real passion for his collection (almost converted me to a card collecting geek!) and for town. It's beautifully produced and really well put together.
Well done Sir,
For the money I am very impressed!
