Hi everyone, I have recently come into possession of a load of 1985 Saints centenary memorabilia either from the Golf match or the centenary dinner (which was in 1986). I can make out some of the signatures but not all. Anyone have any ideas? I won't say which ones I have guessed.
Bobby Stokes Alan Ball (by David Armstrong) Steve Williams (top of 1st page) Ian Turner Steve Moran? Welcome back, Whiteley
Steve Moran could be the one by Bobby Stokes and Ted Bates. Seems like Steve something and he was the only one I could think of.
From memory Steve Moran had a really neat signature that was easy to read (he was one of my 80s heroes). Bit like Malcolm Waldron (neat signature not hero). Oh and forgot to say...Welcome back Whitely!
So we've got on Page 1 Paul Gilchrist Steve Williams Danny Wallace Jimmy Case Steve Moran Bobby Stokes Ted Bates Ian Turner Page 2 Chris Nicholl Alan Ball David Armstrong Glenn Cockrill (possibly - Is anyone sure?) That leaves 2 on the first page not guessed. I was told who one was but no idea about the other. The one I was told is on the left and is scribbled rather than his normal neat hand.
Many years ago my daughter worked at the Nat West Bank where Richer Sounds is today and many of the Saints players banked there as it was the nearest Bank to the Dell. If anyone would recognise the signatures she should. When I next see her I will ask her.
