SIR: We have just received word of your plan to promote soccer legend Nat Lofthouse to "Sir Nat" and felt we had to add our names to your list of supporters.
We were Wanderers fans going back to the 1950s and were present at Wembley on that famous day in 1958, when "we" won the cup!
Nat has indeed been a great ambassador for Bolton and a gentleman in the bargain - surely credentials which would fit him perfectly for knighthood.
Best wishes in your endeavours.
Bob & Dot Aldred of Brunei,
(via E-mail).
