Steven Gerrard

Quite disappointed about this one.

I wrote to Stevie G at about the same time as Stuart Pearce. As he is Captain of the Liverpool team and also of the England team I did expect a bit of a wait.

Sent April 20th - Received May 3rd

I was impressed with the turn around time only 2 weeks.
I guess Liverpool have someone to deal with fanmail though as the picture I sent was returned unsigned and I got with it it a pre-signed Liverpool/Adidas photocard. I believe the picture isn't a pre-print though as there was some transfer of ink so it would have either been a pre-signed pic or maybe "secretarial"

I will call this a success.

Stuart Pearce

This is the quickest turnaround I have had in a long time.

Stuart Pearce is the Legendary England Defender. He is also probably most known as stalwart defender for Notts Forest but we will gloss over that. I managed to get hold of some pics of him playing for Derby County and couldn't resist asking him to sign them for me and my sister.

Stuart is now manager of Man City so that is where I wrote to him. He is also Manager of the England U21 squad.

I sent my request with 3 photos on Friday April 20th.
I received the reply on Thursday April 26th - That is just 6 days even with a 2nd class stamp.

Thank you!
