Its Peter Withes Shin or Legion then, as your Moderators plus prolific posters I may ask you to autograph the issue

I think you may prefer his replacement.

Was there a young lad selling across from you on Thursday or was I imagining it?

That was Percy's lad, our Academy graduate drafted in during an injury crisis.

[Lastfootstamper]

There was.

Dave has a new favourite seller now. Apparently she's lovely. I've been relegated to the stiffs.

Would that be whoever was in Percy's spot at the manu game?

[Lastfootstamper]

Well I'm by the Villa Lion outside the Holte End on Trinity Road tomorrow in place of Steve. Never sold there before.

I get to put a face to a name as I walk past. Chances are you won't get my four quid, though.

[Legion]

I'll sell you one for £2. Deal?

[Legion]

Break the habit and walk further down Trinity Road towards me as I'm in an unfamiliar spot outside the Holte End. Far more used to the Trinity Road North Stand gates and occasionally outside the Church but I'll sell wherever the big boss man tells me to.

A big thank you to Dave for placing me in The Deadzone today. I had been given an incorrect number by Peter Winters on his rare excursion into the UK for our annual meet-up at VP. I usually relocate at this time of year but was unable to contact him about it. He passed me on his way to the ground whilst selling and gave me a spare ticket he had due to illness so I could sit with him in the Upper Holte. Anywhere else and I'd have missed this opportunity. Thank you for the great company again. Very happy.

Could it be your luck is changing?

[Legion]

Highly unlikely. This was a mere blip in the sea of shite that encompasses me.

Happy New Year to you.

Backatcha mate.

"Why is that man shouting, Daddy?"

[Damo70]

I was sat by (to be exact my son was sat in between us) a friendly H&V seller in the lower North Stand today. But by the time we had had a mutual moan to each other about the state of affairs and he had very conscientiously made a quick getaway to start selling again I didn't get around to asking who he was.

[PeterWithesShin]

Probably Legion.

[Legion]

'Twas me!

[Legion]

A very poorly me.

[Damo70]

You didn't look like I thought you looked like. Is there a taller guy with glasses who sells in the middle after games? Or do you stick some specs and platforms on? I always thought that guy was Legion.

[Legion]

That would be Steve Whitehouse. He sells directly outside the park underneath the streetlamp. I sell in the zebra-crossing intersection afterwards in-between the park and the church. I enjoyed chatting to you and apologies for my speedy exit without saying goodbye.
