Aaron78 Posted September 14, 2021 Share Posted September 14, 2021 VIP tickets booked. Looking forward to once again sharing a precious moment with the hero of my childhood.....if someone had offered me a choice between Superman and Robbo to score a last minute winner against Hibs when I was 10, Robbo would have been running in celebration before Clark Kent had even undone his tie...

There is a package to get a signed book and admission. Think it is £15 for straight admission and £40 for admission and signed book. Then other more expensive packages for getting photos taken, event sponsorship etc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
