‘Programme Seller’
Paul Conneally – Leicester 2013
Walking to the football match from wherever you’ve managed to park up or from the bus stop or railway station is an integral part of the match day experience.
Maybe you stop off at a pub for a swift pint, pre-match philosophy and predictions. Watch some of a lunchtime game on the flat screen TV over the bar.
It’s bonding time this walk through the streets. Dads and lads, families, young and old. Win or lose they’ll be back for the next match.
This beautiful game is more than what’s played out on the pitch. A nod, a wink, a shaking of hands. Someone bangs a drum. Get it on. Let’s all chant.
