Our thanks to Go East Vintage for hosting us at Wapping. We look forward to joining you at further events as head into autumn.

After a hectic summer, we're having a couple of Sundays off - our next event is The Big Hertfordshire Antique & Vintage Fair in Watford on Sunday 27th September.

What a magnificent venue !

What a magnificent space !

We're over in that little bit of town between The City & Docklands where we've joined Go East Vintage for the second day of the WAPPING GREAT FLEA ! This is taking place RIGHT NOW at the majesticly preserved former industrial venue that is Wapping Power Station (E1W 3SF) - your most convenient public transport point is Wapping Station on the London Overground.

The market runs until 5pm, and admission is £3.

* * * NEW STOCK ALERT * * *

It doesn't get much better than good condition programmes in bound volumes - so we were delighted when these dropped into our lap recently.

Indeed, it's not the first time we've had some of these, but once again we can offer some full sets of Ipswich Town home programmes in smart club binders. The gent from whom we obtained these said they had come to him from a lady who worked in the Club offices at Portman Road.

The run starts at the very peak, 1980-81, arguably the greatest season in the Club's history. With Liverpool being off the pace for once, Ipswich battled with Aston Villa for the League title. No European football and early Cup exits - one ironically at the hands of Ipswich in the F.A. Cup 3rd round - meant Villa played 20 games less than their Suffolk rivals, and eventually claimed their first Championship since 1910. Villa Park was also the setting for Ipswich's F.A. Cup exit, Manchester City skipper Paul Power ending their run with a majestic semi-final strike. However, there was more than ample consolation, a 5-4 aggregate win over AZ67 Alkmaar in the final bringing the UEFA Cup to East Anglia.

It was another close call in the League in 1981-82, with Liverpool's late run at the end of the season again consigning Ipswich to the runners-up spot. The Reds had also blocked Ipswich's route to Wembley, beating them in the League Cup semi-final. Perhaps a bigger though not entirely unexpected disappointment came in the summer of 1982, with Bobby Robson taking the England job following Ron Greenwood's retirement after the World Cup

From then on it was a case of steady decline at Portman Road. A further League Cup semi-final in 1985 was bad enough, but it was compounded by being at the hands of rivals Norwich. The fall was completed twelve months later with the drop back in to Division Two for the first time since 1968, and try as they might for an instant top flight return they fell short in the new play-off semi-final in 1987.

This run of programmes covers all those seven seasons from 1980-81 to 1986-87. Prices are £25 set from 1981-82, with the thirty-three programme UEFA Cup winning set of 1980-81 priced at £30. Full details of what's in each set are listed http://www.nwmfootball.com/complete-season-sets/ipswich-town-sets/ here. Don't forget that when you buy more than one set at a fair or market, we discount each set you buy by £5 - you can take advantage of this offer on Sunday when we join Go East Vintage for the second day of the Wapping Great Flea !

Do you remember that iconic commentary by Barry Davies when Franny Lee stuck one in the onion bag for Derby County ?

"Look at his face......just look at his face !"

We'll let Onur from Go East Vintage tell you all about the WAPPING GREAT FLEA which takes place over the weekend.

It's set to be another sparkling late summer's afternoon in London, and with this in mind and given we're only attending on SUNDAY you'll find us in a nice spot in the courtyard rather than inside the iconic Wapping Hydraulic Power Station itself - but there'll be plenty for you to look at inside too.

And it's the London Big Half Marathon too on Sunday, so you have the added bonus of watching some fools suffering the 25C heat as they attempt to drag themselves around Docklands and The City 🤣. Rather them than us !

Well, we got away with it ! One shower around 2pm, but thankfully other than that a dry late summer's day.

So that's our third visit to The Greenwich Vintage Market this month done & dusted. As always our thanks to the management & fellow stall holders for their company and hospitality.

Next up - it's the WAPPING GREAT FLEA, hosted by Go East Vintage. We'll be there on SUNDAY. More info later in the week.

"Open the gates, let us back in !"

True to their word, our friends at The Greenwich Vintage Market have advised that a stall has become available this weekend.

So.......THIS SUNDAY......30th August, we'll be back in SE10 - we'll see you there !!!

Well, that's a wrap from SE10.

We'd like to take this opportunity to thank the management at The Greenwich Vintage Market for accomodating us on several occasions during the summer (not forgetting our fellow stallholders without whose company our days wouldn't be anywhere near as enjoyable).

At present the GVM is fully booked out well into the autumn - good news for them, not so good news for us ! But we have advised them of a handful of Sundays which would be of interest to us should a stall become vacant....so fingers crossed.

As things currently stand our next event is Sunday 6th September (gulp ! September ??? Already ?) when we join Go East Vintage for the second day of their "Wapping Great Flea" at Wapping Hydraulic Power Station. More details to follow nearer the time.

Another glorious day in London - another glorious day over at The Greenwich Vintage Market. In fact this could well be our last visit of the summer. We've enquired about some dates in September & October, but they're fully booked well into the autumn, so at present we've asked them to give us notice of any cancellations.

So it's more imperative than usual that you head down to Greenwich Church Street (SE10 9BQ) for the biggest and best range of football memorabilia on offer in London today. We're here until 5pm with plenty of programmes - Big Match issues from the 1940's through to the modern era, folders crammed full of pre-1960 Football League & pre-1970 Non League issues, Friendlies & Testimonials, Reserves & Youth etc, and dozens of full season sets.

There's half a dozen crates of shirts & sportswear to explore, plus plenty of handbooks & annuals, Rothmans Yearbooks, and some stunning wallpiece items.

The market is close to the central attractions and is served by Cutty Sark Maritime on the DLR. If you believe the doom & gloom merchants a wild, wet, and windy autumn will soon be upon us, so come down and the make the most of what one of London's most attractive areas has to offer.
