Mr R Hunt
Morphett Vale, 5162
South Australia.

Dear David,

Congratulations on your match reports re the Web site, I have all of this years matchfacts plus news of signings etc, thanks to my youngest daughter Tina, she keeps me informed.

My name is Roy Hunt and I am now 74 years of age but still a Yeovil Town supporter. I went to Huish School and played for Yeovil and Somerset Boys.

After the War, I was invalided out of the Royal Marines and was fit enough to start playing football again when I was 24 years playing for local teams, Westland Sports, Barwick and Stoford, Railway United, and Montacute. I even had a couple of games with Yeovil T Reserves, the manager was Ike Clark 1954-55.

I also played 14 times for the Yeovil league, 7 times as captain. Bill Bissitt was the secretary and your own Norman Burfield was President of the League 'happy days', I am and will always be a Yeovil Town supporter.

Yours Sincerely
R E Hunt
