Wow!! What a super thread. I have Peter's book, well worth getting. Grew up as a kid in Woodstock, never missed a Friday night at Hartleyvale, used to sit on the benches in front of the Ramps to the left of the tunnel. So many happy memories...exciting soccer, fantastic atmosphere. Live in the UK now, have been to may games around the country in all divisions...only Elland Road rivals the Hartleyvale buzz. The Premier League clubs are all dead and uninteresting.
