6/12/2017

Madonna, Kylie and Gazza, what a way to kick off the latest collection of cover stories as we seek out Spurs and where they have turned up on the news-stands over the years. Gazza took time out from his footy to have a record career (see The Tottenham Juke Box) and here appears on the front cover of Smash Hits magazine. As we look back over eighty years and uncover  some unexpected titles.

Cover Stories started as a quick read-bite for those nights when kick off was in the small hours of the morning but certainly struck a cord with the readers, as this third group proves.Thanks for the covers you sent in. Anyone has any, especially non football publications, do contact me.

The Midland based Soccer Star, 12th March 1955 and Ron Reynolds offers 'a prayer in vain' watched by Alf Ramsey as the visitors score at WHL. The week before we drew 2-2 with Manchester City at home. The paper also reports the 1894 Boot Incident, one suspects Ernie Payne. In which case a story we covered in the Northumberland  Days series.

Below Left - Gilzean from the Arsenal game '68 makes the Charles Buchan's magazine. Center our own supporters club and the Lilywhite (with Les Bennett) from April 1951. Right - which later became 'Team' this May 1964. Featuring Dave Mackay.
