Just caught up with the Hunter/Steadman post. What a superb response from the old master. I'd be dead chuffed to receive that.

The closest I can come is my handwritten letter from Alf Ramsay (as he then was). As a schoolboy back in 1968, I wrote to him to ask him some breathless questions about what it was like winning the World Cup. He sent me back a really nice hand-penned letter on FA headed paper, telling me how much the side had deserved to win, how delighted and relieved he felt at the final whistle, and promising to personally pass on my best wishes to the players! I still have it, Every time I read it I'm reminded of what an absolute gent he was, to take the time to write to some kid. I bet it wouldn't happen now.
