Published June 2021

A tour around the press boxes of more than 120 Football League and Premier League grounds, over a period of 30 years, primarily reporting on Colchester United and Ipswich Town.

From Manchester United to Accrington Stanley, from Layer Road to Portman Road, beginning at The Abbey, Cambridge, and ending at Moor Lane, Salford, this is a regional reporter's account of a colourful career spanning three decades.

Author Carl Marston follows the fortunes of both Colchester United and Ipswich Town, all over the country, from Plymouth Argyle in the south to Carlisle United in the north, from Grimsby Town in the east to Swansea City in the west.

Over the years, Carl has been left behind by the team-coach (at Torquay United), arrived late just once (at Wrexham), been treated like a king (at the Emirates) and struggled to get in (at Doncaster's Belle Vue).

Carl has enjoyed an unrivalled access to the goings-on at Colchester United and Ipswich Town over the last 30 years, attending thousands of pre-match and post-match press conferences.

 

About the Author

Bury St Edmunds-born Carl Marston joined the East Anglian Daily Times newspaper as a sports writer in 1989. After a stint following the dramatic rise of Cambridge United, he became the regular reporter of Colchester United after the Essex club's return to the Football League in 1992, spanning three decades across three divisions. He has also been a familiar face in the Ipswich Town press box, including two years shadowing the enigmatic Roy Keane.

Light weight beef tallow moisturizer
Every light weight. Easy to apply & No greasy feeling! I actually put a lot and it leaves my skin feeling very hydrated! The smell is not strong.

Life and Skin Changer/Saver!!
This has absolutely changed my skin and life for the better! I tend to have dry and sensitive skin. Traditional lotions and creams last only a few minutes or hours with minimal relief. My hands were getting very dry and wrinkly, but the Beef Tallow has brought my hands back to normal. I even started using it on my face and LOVE IT! The ingredients seem to be minimal using beef tallow, honey, olive oil, etc. It’s not just a surface level moisturizer - it seeps deep into the skin. My family has tried it and can’t wait to buy their own!!

This tallow and honey balm is a really good product!
I really like this Tallow and honey balm. Actually, I use it as a face cream and it is really smooth. What I like the most is that it’s not really greasy feeling when you put it on but once it’s absorbed into the skin your skin feels smooth. You don’t need much either. It comes with a little scoop so that you aren’t sticking your fingers in it. I’m glad I tried it because it is a good value. Another thing, it smells really good and I think it’s because of the ingredients of tallow and honey.

Hoping to reduce redness
Having this product for only a few days I will say I think my skin feels less dry. I am hoping that over time it will help reduce the redness of my face due to rosacea. So far I like it.
