    What a fantastic site!

    Brings memories flooding back of saturday mornings when Roy of the Rovers was delivered. I always read it cover to cover before I did owt else.

    Great stories like Tommys troubles and safest hands in soccer and that Victor Boskovic bloke was funny as **** as Rovers manager.

    Its all a bit tame by todays standards but I bet half of the folk on here that are old enough used to read it or at least hide the razzle in it!

    I think it was Scorcher?.....

    I used to read Victor, Whizzer & Chips, Corr, Beano and those Commando magazines. I buy the little un the Beano nowadays - mind you, her sister (aged 19) keeps nicking them.

    No idea. Definitely not at work, though. Honest.

    Roy of the Rovers ended up with Hot Shot Hamish, but I think I saw it in Tiger before then.
