580 signed by Stewart Weir who was selling them in a little shop down Sackville Road near the Salvation Army place. A great book to remember those days and pick out a few people I know/knew in the photos.

Who has a copy of 'More than ninety minutes' with a hand written issue number ?

I'm not a fan of threads by The Great Attention Seeker.
I opened this one to make sure that everyone who replied, wrote "we all do, you numpty".
They are of course easy enough to buy. It's better to have been there.

Ah, that's interesting. Our old mate Adrian, owner of one of the few Goldstone Ground turnstiles to leave the country and the man behind the printing of Scars & Stripes. How do you know him?

I grew up with him in Seaford. His brother, who is my age and features in the book, handing out leaflets, is my oldest friend. Adrian is a year or two older than me. He was Albion mad when we were younger as I was. I was only 12 when we played up at Newcastle for promotion in 1979, Adrian offered to take me. Unsurprisingly my dad wouldn't let me go, Adrian was probably 14 at the time! Last time I saw him was at the Millennium stadium against Bristol.

It was his brother's van that took Adrian's turnstile away from the Goldstone. There were two turnstiles in the van - the other, from the south west corner, is now restored and safe for ever in the museum.

Was it? I didn't realise that. I was newly married and living in Liverpool at the time. I missed a lot of the fight for our club, something I regret. However, I don't think I'd have coped well with the last game at the Goldstone. I was there for the York game, in my opinion, that was the real game changer.

It was indeed. How do you know Adrian? Do you know Mark as well?

I haven't seen Mark since those heroic days sadly. Adrian was a business partner of my oldest friend and became a friend of mine too. I was a customer of his and on a heap of Albion-related ventures, a collaborator too. I last saw him at the Amex a while back.

Small world. I forwarded the URL of this thread to Mark, he was obviously interested and said he'd forward it to Adrian.
Btw it's good not to cross swords on the referendum for a change!
Got mine from Sportspages back in the day.
