    You'll probably have to bind it yourself then - am pretty sure it was a fairly cheap, paperback-like production.

    I haven't looked through the online one fully yet, but am hoping the photos from the book are included. There was one of an apprentice signing on - I bumped into him years later in Queensland when he was playing in the State League there. A South Oxhey lad, he knew all the guys I used to go to matches with - had a fine night reminiscing.

    I don't know how Luther could bring himself to be interviewed by this creep, but he's well worth watching.

    Surprised Farage knew who he was or even cared !

    I presume it was mainly about football and Luther’s experiences rather than anything political

    No politics - more about Farage trying to show that he has something in common with commoners. Yes, mainly Luther relating his football experiences.

    Yup. A record attendance too at the time - a packed ground and lord only knows how they managed to squeeze in another four thousand three years later.
