Any Old Iron by Graham Martin Johnson

This 50 year journey takes in Upton Park Boleyn Ground/Stadium Atmosphere, Elation, Home and 'Away' Entertainment, Exhilaration and Woe, attach this to every emotion that you care to imagine and with numerous away travels, this book is also West Ham United and Football Informative. Jimmy Greaves 1970 London to Mexico car rally and That Bracelet Bobby Moore four day house detention, Stoke City League Cup Epic Semi-Finals, No afternoon school Hereford FA Cup, ECWC Eintracht Frankfurt, Anderlecht and Dynamo Tblisi. Promotions-Relegations, Cup Wins-Losses. Hurst, Moore Testimonials, Brookings last match, The Boys of '86, the Lock outs/Get ins and the Newcastle United St James' Park petrol bomb. An off the street supporter, these writings transparently written, give an insight to the author, and along with all that is said, his 'top flight' modern day football views and opinions come without notice. The words written in this book are how many of us West Ham fans would love to be able to put in writing. Not only is it a very interesting and enjoyable read, it also invokes so many of my own personal memories following the 'Irons', and this book is a must for any true West Ham Fan. (Len Herbert, Secretary of the Boys of '86)
