I too stupidly got rid of all my SHOOT magazines I had collected from its incetion date in 1969 – thank goodness for BACKPASS as I now can relive those glory years of football when the game was played by men and not by the ‘prima donnas’ of the modern era; an era when diving was not part and parcel of the game, where loyalty meant being with your club until and after your testimonial, etc. Look forward to each edition of BACKPASS. Good to also see so many of the stars of the Seventies that I was privileged to have seen play for either Cape Town City or Hellenic featured in the publications, stars like George Mulhall and George Eastham to name but a few.

I had a huge pile of Shoot and Match from 86 to about 1991…and then threw them all away a few years ago…

Wow! I have not seen that. Although I have a fairly hefty pile of Match Weeklys up in the loft I will definitely check that out. Cheers for the tip John.
