Good lord, I'd forgotten that Saturday evening edition. I remember feeling so disappointed when it was stopped, I used to love reading the match write ups the same evening.Innocent, heady days. Or if you were on the way back from a match Evening Standard Saturday tea time edition
Would you take a draw now?
We’ll have his determination & grit across the team today. We’ll be raring to go: goal within first ten mins for us…
Would you take a draw now?
Harry Kane has scored eight times on the final day of the Premier League season, more than any other player. BBC
He always plays the right tune in the right record.
The end game is here-need it to happen more than anything. Not sure if I can handle anything other than the right result.
No absolutely notWould you take a draw now?
Definitely, but it would be a tough watch ?Would you take a draw now?
In my day (I was probably not even in my teens) there were three London Evening papers, The Star, Evening News and Evening Standard. On a saturday afternoon at about a quarter to six, the paper sellers would shout out "Star News and Stande-e-e-rd!" Classified!" This gave all the full time scores, plus reports on some London games upto the midpoint of the second half. There was a "Late Extra" which had come out mid-afternoon which had half times and a stop press at the bottom of the back page which had some second half goals in it, though why any one would buy that edition escaped me.We had the Evening Standard and also the Evening News, both printed in Fleet Street where all the papers came from in Londkn and the South East.
They would have a back page with what was called the ‘stop press’ column along the bottom rows to which the scores would be out in.
These were sent by trains and vans to all the newsstands and shops. In other places like Manchester you had similar - The Manchester Evening Pink .
As a travelling supporter it was rare that you could stop and buy a copy as you would be corralled/kettled and herded by the police for most journeys back to coaches/trains
You could leave Old Trafford and by the time you arrived at Manchester Piccadilly station the paper would be there so you could see the other results of the day.
Quaint times
Definitely, but it would be a tough watch ?
Kane senior was asked by someone I know within the club the other day whether Harry would give the ball to Sonny if we got a penalty… his response was ‘are you taking the piss?’ Meaning, no way would he… out & out goal scorer is Kane
