My mother probably wasn't even crawling at that stage, that's how long it is since we last won the Cup   :'(

My Mom worked in the Co-Op on Birmingham High Street when the 57 Cup Winners visited the store. She managed to get autographs off quite a few of them but I do recall her giving them to a neighbour's lad when I was much younger !! I once asked her about it & all she would say was "I never thought you would have loved football " ! With every passing year those signatures may well have risen in value but I will never know now. RIP Mom sadly missed xx
