Description

Football writer and Cobblers fan Tom Reed sits down with creator and editor of What A Load Of Cobblers fanzine Deborah Marshall as WALOC is reborn in podcast form in association with the NeneQuirer.

WALOC ran for 96 issues between 1988 and 2004.

Featuring talk on the formation of the original Cobblers fanzine in the 80's, Graham Carr's Champagne Cobblers, the first ever Supporters' Trust in the 1990's and life as a Cobblers fan over decades.

Hooliganism, the "McRitchie Out" campaign, the Shrewsbury "Great Escape" via Pat Gavin's arse and Wembley '97 it's all in there.

Almost as good as a pint in the County Tavern and a spot on the Hotel End.

What A Load Of Cobblers, Cobblers fanzine, still only a pound...(oh go on then you have it for nothing).

"A treasure trove of melancholy and gentle ineptitude"- The Independent.
