Tractor the Future
The authors of the recent Got, Not Got book, Derek Hammond and Gary Silke, are on the lookout for pictures of fans in kit back when they were kids in the 60s, 70s, 80s and early-90s for the forthcoming sequel, Got, Not Got 2.
They’ve already collected a number of what they describe as “absolute corkers” including shots of youthful fans in kit with stars including Alan Hansen and Bobby Moore, but as yet none wearing Town blue. More details here.
Derek and Gary are also kicking off a regular feature for Backpass based around club memorabilia and ephemera with Town the first side they will be looking to feature.
Have you got items of memorabilia with stories to tell or with memories attached? If so, contact Derek and Gary <a href=http://gotnotgot.wordpress.com/2012/03/09/wanted-you-as-a-kid-in-your-60s-70s-80s-football-kit/>here</a>.
