He alongside Keith Weller and Derek Posse are three of the all time greats.
He was an excellent writer too. I can’t recommend his book enough to any Millwall fan.

Hi Nick, thanks for your comment and kind words. I’ve changed that Torquay day to Monday!

I was a friend of Gordon Bolland and used to drive him back from away games on occasion. I met Eamonn a few times – he wouldn’t remember me – and he was gobby even then, highly critical of his new team mates at Charlton. Being a sad nitpicker, I’m only writing to say our game v Torquay was a Monday evening game (I was there) so we didn’t trundle home on a Saturday afternoon. I met the Torquay goal scorer Robin Stubbs (a summer lifeguard) a year later on the beach and he remembered the game well. Keep up your superb coverage of the mighty Lions.

I once told him I had enjoyed a book by Derek Dougan, who he didn’t like. Ouch! He always took an interest in the media and he used to hand write his weekly column for the South London Press. He would then get on a bus at his home in Catford and deliver to Streatham, pausing only for a short break at the betting shop
