I used to love reading the Football League Review. Happy days (Charles Buchan's Football Monthly was brilliant too) Showing my age now

Think I'm right in saying that although the Football League Review had a nominal cover price of one shilling, it used to come free as an insert (monthly?) In a club's normal matchday programme at no extra charge

*edit* Note to self: check dog-eared collection of programmes from yesteryear to confirm

Wasn't this given free inside the Albion program? There were vouchers to collect to get a League Cup Final ticket. I purchased two tickets for Chelsea v Stoke 1972 final. Having just looked it up I see Gordon Banks was in goal. This then got me thinking 'how many of the '66 team have I seen?'.

Did anyone remove The Football League Review and put it on a separate pile in your bedroom. Controversial but I did.

Can remember being taken to Highbury by my dad, (he was a Gooner), for my first taste of football back in the late 1960's. Walking up to the stadium from Arsenal tube station we passed several guys selling hot dogs from mobile stands, that was about the extent of the catering in those days, the only choice we had, was do you want onions with it?

How times change, we wouldn't be content with that now!

I remember seeing Banksy in the 1972 FA Cup semi final at Villa Park, he was quite an acerbic character on the pitch as l recall, plenty to say for himself.

Slightly off track here but the finest hotdogs in Brighton were the ones sold by O'Hagans on the seafront at the bottom of Middle street (I think) best after a night out on the booze, lovely mmmmmm.

Remember Bobby Charlton playing for PNE at the Goldstone, think he was player/manager

I’m not sure that they were “the finest” but, in the early 70’s, they were the only food available at 1am on a Sunday morning when the Top Rank Suite chucked out.

Mine are still in their original programmes

I can see why you'd do it

The reviews were better than the programmes themselves!
