READ REVIEWS OF OUR UPTON PARK MEMORIES BOOK
| Greg Faasen (South Africa): Just to say I managed to get a friend to get the book for me whilst he was in the UK over Christmas and finally got my hands on it a few days ago. I must congratulate you on a magnificent publication. I get goose bumps every time I open it – it is so personal, yet covers so many historical and factual incidents – kits, matches etc. It is, kind of, a West Ham bible! How you managed to decide what to include and what to leave out I will never know. So, thank you for including me in this epic edition – my family is proud to have their husband and dad in such a fine book and it just makes me all the prouder to be associated with this exceptional club, albeit from thousands of miles away. Gary Bush: Hope the Memories book is continuing to sell really well. Have read through it twice now and it is by far the best Hammers book on my shelf and I have many. Andy Bright: Just got the book and after a quick look, I can't believe the quality of it. Certainly stirs a few memories for a kid from the 70s brought up on Bonds, Brooking , Subbuteo and Match of the Day. Somehow I don't think the pilgrimage from Bristol to Stratford is going to have the same feeling. Tony Cullen: Upton Park Memories is fantastic. Not read it all, but keep dipping in and out. My daughter, who by the way has no interest at all in football, looked at it and was very complimentary. She loved the way it's put together. One of the best she had seen. Many thanks for including my articles, especially adding the photo of Geoff Hurst scoring the goal, it made it extra special. Good luck with the book, I already have several copies . . . Christmas presents for my brothers who, like me, all are very impressed. What a huge task you took on preparing and publishing such a wonderful book. I'm sure it will become the primary source of Upton Park history, together with showing how the club is embraced by the people involved in making it more than just a football team. Thanks for the memories. Eamonn McManus: Got to say, it’s a tear jerker. Christmas was full of memories and the sad realisation that we have to move on. Paul Codling: I already have the book and being a die-hard Hammer (living in Stockport, near Manchester) and collector of WHU memorabilia for the last 40 years, I have to say this ranks very highly in my collection - an absolute must for all Hammers fans. Reading the book has brought many a tear to me eye." Alan Byrne: Just wanted to drop you a line to congratulate you on what a good job you've done on Upton Park Memories. It is superb and a fitting tribute to not only our magnificent ground of over 100 years, but also the people and places that made it so special to so many of us. Having been watching matches there from late '71, there were so many memories brought back just through reading this book. As mentioned within, who can forget that special feeling once turning the corner from Green Street and seeing either The Big Match or BBC TV truck parked there, knowing you could therefore see the highlights on TV (preferably ITV's Brian Moore, not that awful Motson, who in my opinion always seemed to be 30 seconds behind the action in his commentary!). Thanks for keeping the memories alive, and keep up the good work with EX magazine. CLICK HERE to read more reviews... |
EX MAGAZINE - OUR FINAL ISSUE |
 Friday 29 July, 2016 WITH a heavy heart, we reluctantly announce that we have published the final edition of EX magazine. We can fully understand and appreciate your disappointment but the decision to pull the plug after 79 issues spanning the best part of 14 years was certainly not taken lightly and, without wishing to sound too melodramatic, it followed a lot of soul-searching and careful consideration over a period of many months.
