Stanley Matthews’ autobigraphy. Football was so different when he began playing in the Thirties. Many players at any given club were local working class lads who continued to live in the same kind of streets as the fans. The maximum wage was still in force. The England team had no manager, just a panel of selectors and all nearly all travel, both domestic and continental, was done by train. Also interesting to read what he thought about the infamous Nazi salute.

Can someone read that and tell me what it says, please? (bit tired today) Cheers.

Biography of Howard Hughes. Never realised just how corrupt he was or how promiscuous (batting for both sides) Aviation coverage a bit patchy though, and I’d wanted to learn more about why Hughes Aircraft produced so little in WWII. Also rather taken aback by stuff like “The Hughes Falcon missile was a development of the V-2’s that had blitzed London” :confused:

Did he also ask if he’d ever been inside a Turkish prison?
