Track of the Week - 19 September 2021
I was in Ruislip yesterday with my friends Cliff and Neil for the Vanarama National League football match between Wealdstone and Aldershot Town.
Cliff is a 'Shots' fan and John, another of our old colleagues/horse racing chums, was a Wealdstone supporter. Cliff and John had always decided to go to the game if and when the two teams played each other but John died in 2013 without that happening. We decided to honour his memory by going along.
It wasn't a bad game, finishing 2-2. I was a bit taken aback by just how angry some of the fans were. Terrace wit seems to have been largely replace by abuse. Shame.
With Aldershot's nickname being 'The Shots' I was thinking about Magazine's brilliant Shot By Both Sides. But as Wealdstone are known as 'The Stones' I've gone with Loadstones by The Fall.
For me it's the stand-out track from their 2013 album Re-Mit. (Victrola Time is well worth a mention too.)
