Back to Hayes Lane



So I decided to spend the advance from the book on flying over to watch Bromley play AFC Hornchurch in the FA Cup second qualifying round. Predictably, Bromley were on top almost the entire game and still managed to lose 1-0 thanks to a dubious penalty. The feeling of witnessing a great injustice was as strong as it was almost every Saturday afternoon 40 years ago. At least I got to get my picture taken in the tunnel at Hayes Lane, a shot I know you are dying to see. So here it is, together with a pic of the book in Waterstone's.
