The Nest remembered

David Squires is an excellent cartoonist and illustrator. I have his book, The Illustrated History of Football which is really funny and entertaining.

He really should have included Great Yarmouth's historic Wellesley Road stand, arguably the most beautiful and significant stand in football 😞

Oh, I hadn't seen that (love Squires too, though). That's absolutely brilliant, thanks for sharing.

So good, isn't it?
