The majority of pages are undamaged with some creasing or tearing, and pencil underlining of text, but this is minimal.

Do I really want the Chiefs fans, already well above the threshold of whiney and insufferable, to get even more privileged? Dozy Danny dilutes the youthful experiences of Bill Foulkes and Jack Charlton among others, who earned a living as miners before training at night. Phoenix: I can only imagine that Rocky is just a pet/nickname his parents gave him as a child growing up, whereas his real name would also be Roy. The 49ers had to barely hang on to eek out a win against two teams they were supposed to be better than. Popular publishers Limp Along Leslie, Roy Race, Billy Dane, and Hotshot Hamish are among the iconic footballers that graced the pages of boys comics that the renowned publisher D.Scorcher Comic was launched by IPC on 10th January 1970 inspired by the success of football magazines like 'Goal' and 'Shoot'. He did it before halftime but then later with the Lions trailing by a field goal and well within range with time winding down, they instead went for it, failed, and the 49ers marched down the field to score a TD, putting themselves up by 10 and effectively ending the game.

And, these things do happen, a man in a checked jacket approaches from the touchline and says, “I’m Ian Clark, manager of Castleburn City, you’re the type of player I’m always looking for.Manager Mills is not so taken with Jimmy (“the real footballer” in the family, according to Jack) who he regards as “certainly an eager beaver, a glutton for work … but too much of a lone wolf”. I used the results /tables that were published in Shoot itself, only problem by the time they published them it was 3-4 weeks out of date. Fair play is emphasised, and there are exhortations toward purportedly higher ethics including encouraging boys to join the army during the First World War. Some of the characters in stories like Jimmy Stone"the hardest shot in football" there was a stereotypical South American Miranda or something who had "as many tricks as a barrowload of monkeys" and there was Jed Logan who was an old jakey but when he donned his magic boots became a wizard on the wing. only sixteen issues though despite the apparently long run, due to the paper appearing only on alternate weeks for its first four instalments, three weeks in four thereafter, just missing the strike covering the rest of March, which meant that after issue 1184 there wasn't another Adventure for four weeks.
