Unfortunately the launch do for my new book 'Eric & Dave - A Lifetime of Football and Friendship', originally due to take place this Sunday (25th Sept) at Denton Island Bowls Club, Newhaven, has had to be postponed until Sunday 2nd October (as the Dave in question tested positive for Covid earlier this week - get well soon Dave).
Eric, Dave & myself would (a) like to apologise to anyone inconvenienced by this, and (b) hope that you can make the rescheduled date. Kick off on Sunday 2nd October at Denton Island is at 2pm, with proceedings due to wrap up around 5pm. If you're reading this, consider yourself invited.
Long story short - 'Eric & Dave' is the remarkable story of Eric Gill and Dave Hollins, two goalkeepers who first met at the Albion way back in 1955. Almost 70 years later they remain the best of pals having lived long, eventful lives bookended by the horrors of World War Two and the Covid-19 pandemic.
For anyone who can't make the rescheduled launch date, signed copies of the book will be on sale at City Books on Western Avenue, Hove, from lunchtime on Monday 3rd October.
For anyone else who can't wait that long, 'Eric & Dave' is available now through all the usual outlets including the publishers themselves, Pitch Publishing (www.pitchpublishing.co.uk).
Thanks for reading & up the Albion,
