Matthew Le Tissier Corinthian Figure


Tac-tics

Recommended Posts

After seeing The Times advert, I've been rather taken with having a corinthian and a football hanging from the mirror.

 

Anyone got a Le Tissier Corinthian?

 

Preferable a Saints one.

 

Also if anyone has a Carlos Valderama one that wants to part with it, Ill gladly take it off your hands.

 

p.s Sorry if wrong thread just needs coverage from more Saints than those leisure whores on the other threads :)

I've got the (relatively) rare one of Matty in the 1998 World Cup kit - which of course he wasn't selected by the ***** hoddle.

 

It's on my model of the Dell!

 

I've got that one too.....it's rarity value would appear to be dropping by the second!

This should really be on the buy/sell forum.

 

I happen to have two. I have a very rare one which I won't sell. I have been told it is the only one of it's sort around, where they forgot to paint his shorts on and you can see his privates. I would never sell that. I like it. I have another and would sell that one for £80 (p&p extra).

Matty sits on top of my work PC in the old Sanderson kit. I don't think there is enough money in the world would make me part with him...

 

I too have him in the Sanderson kit. Think i had one of the others too, but it was so long ago i can't remember. Benali? Anyway i wouldn't part with it for less than he's worth!

Ditto, plus I have his autograph stuck on my desk drawer, and a 12" garden gnome also painted in the Sanderson kit sat on my second set of office drawers.

 

I also have an 18"*24" aerial photo of the Dell waiting to be put up on the wall.

 

Obsession ? Nah !!!

Now then........I have a pencil sketch, of Matty in his England kit, with Bally in the background, and also a smaller figure of Matty in his Saints kit, also in the background. To me this is priceless, but I expect it's value is £5-600

My original Matty was kidnapped when I was working in a sports warehouse in the mid-90s (we sold Corinthian figures as well as kit), and day by day my work colleagues took great pleasure posting what were purported to be parts of his anatomy back to me in the internal mail as I refused to pay their ransom.

 

It was only when I noticed a bit of blue shirt on what they claimed was his hand that I rumbled that my Matty was in fact ok, and they had been sacrificing an Everton no-mark figure instead, probably Dave Watson or Anders Limpar or someone of that ilk.

 

The kidnappers foiled, Matty was soon returned, and following a lengthy tenure on my PC monitor in a subsequent job he has now retired to a carrier bag in my garage.

After Le Tissier dragged the Club through the mud and soured his reputation:rolleyes: and standing amongst Saints fans, they have issued a new one that is slightly tarnished;).

 

It has some dirt and muck down one side, looks rather ordinary, is cheap, and will only stay in one place.

 

Apparently only one has been custom made to order.

 

Only problem is the person who placed the order has left 8 different names on the order, maybe the mods could help them out.:D

Yeah I've also got the Saints & England MLT ones. As someone above said - the rarity value is dropping fast here...

 

Also have a few others including Graeme Souness when he was Saints manager. Now that has to be worth a few bob (literally).
