First city autograph ?

Recommended Posts

Posted

My dad was given a ticket in a box for Man U v Leicester (the Cottee game!) and came home with a programme signed by Kasey Keller and Martin O'Neill. Also after the Villa game after we were relegated in 2001/02, I got pretty much the entire squad to sign my programme, plus four Villa players.

I can't remember who came first but at the Leicester City Kids Academy thingys that they used to run at the Hermitage Leisure Centre (by Neville Hamilton), I got Mark Blake, David Lowe, Brian Carey, Russell Hoult and my all time hero at the time Julian Joachim's autographs over the years the scheme was running.

My first ever LCFC autographs were Muzzy Izzett, Robbie Savage and Graham Fenton, i saw them at Kilworth Spring Golf Course many years ago and i asked them, got the autographs, and then went on to get Garry Wolstonhomes aswell. I was happy

Can't remember which of these was first;

Me and my friend went and knocked on Julian Joachim's door when he lived in Leysland fields and got his autograph.

City played Leicester United in a pre-season friendly sometime in the 90s - when Leicester united existed, lived round the corner in Blaby and got loads of players autographs.

Also got autograph and photo taken with Pontus in a mercury newsshop in Oadby. I sat on his knee for the photo and fell in love!

Mine was the entire team from the Aston Villa game some time in the 80's I can only remeber Alan Smith but still have the program in my drawrs upstairs.

Mine was Rodney Fern. He said "I can't write, get Bobby Roberts' instead", whereupon he scrawled in my autograph book. Happy days.

"He's here, he's there, he's even combed his hair, Rodney Fern, Rodney Fern."

Shilton was my boyhood hero, in fact I played all my footie in goal because of him and he was my inspiration. Sometime after shilton had moved on from city I went with my dad and brother to a charity cricket event. Lots of cricket and footie players were there and me and my bro had a field day doing the rounds collecting all the autographs we could. We spotted Shilton sat in a chair on his own and approached him, politley requested his autograph and were very upset when he said piss off !! it must have been his standard reply !! From that day Wallington was my hero and I took down all my pics of Shilton !!

Shilton's brother used to go down the Scraptoft Valley WMC, sitting there like the big 'I am' ! KNOB.

My first autograph was Mark Wallington in a crap blue autograph book with a gold leaf type thing on the edge of the page. All the bloody pages fell out.
