Tales From The Riverbank Part 3, now ready - AND a 2013 Calendar..!

[LBNo11]

Tales from the Riverbank is back, and PART 3 is bigger and better than ever before!

With over 125 photographs (many never seen before), this 224-page A4 hardback book is a breathtaking and detailed insight into two more turbulent seasons at Craven Cottage (1969-70 and 1970-71). It's a time when Fulham start their climb back to respectability.

Every game, every goal, all the comings and goings on and off the pitch; every detail relating to life at Fulham FC at that time – well over 100 matches are covered. What's in this volume? Well.....

The shock departure of Malcolm Macdonald / Fulham go crazy with eight goals at Halifax Town / Fulham score sixteen goals in just three league games / The Doncaster Rovers thugs come to town / Johnny Haynes gets the Fulham goalscoring record / The Luton Town floodlight failure / George Cohen's testimonial match / The first round FA Cup knock out at Fourth Division Exeter City / George Cohen takes charge of the juniors / The Bristol Rovers leaflet protest / John Richardson scores one of the goals of the season in a rare Fulham TV appearance / Johnny Haynes' final Fulham game / Fulham's two wins in eighteen games, and morale at rock bottom / A great revival and Fulham push on to fifteen league games unbeaten / The Fulham youth, victorious in Düsseldorf / Jimmy Conway and Steve Earle head the league's goalscoring charts / The departure of Johnny Haynes and the arrival of Jimmy Dunne / Barry Lloyd made captain at twenty-one / The Watney Cup thriller with Derby County / All five forwards score against Bradford City / Rodney Marsh's first return to the Cottage and Rangers being rattled out of the League Cup / Cup specialists Swindon Town become Fulham's next League Cup victims / Another fifteen game unbeaten run / Stan Brown's testimonial match / Dad winning the FA Cup duel of the Dodgins / League Cup quarterfinal heartache at Ashton Gate / The Gillingham pantomime on ice / Three goals in eight minutes at Priestfield / The Fulham champagne promotion party at Bradford City / The Preston North End final letdown / Town Hall celebrations / The Riverside stand gets the go-ahead.  

Re the 2013 calendar it contains photos from the last five decades and is printed on quality paper, such is the quality of the paper and photographs you could put the pictures into frames once the year is done - a snip at £5.95 + £2.00 P&P unless collected.



I picked both up today from Ken, and as ever the products are of a standard that we have grown to be accustomed with from Ashwater Press - oh, and Friends Of Fulham gets a mention in the Acknowledgements, a nice surprise, thanks Martin...
