The Bumper Book Of Slightly Forgotten But Nevertheless Still Great British Olympians And Other Sporting Heroes
Waterstones Product Information
"The Bumper Book of Slightly Forgotten British Olympians and Other Sporting Heroes" is just that: a collection of stirring tales of pluck, grit, triumph, disaster and on occasion, ineptitude, featuring a host of former sportspeople who've been utterly forgotten by history: from Maude Waveney, the plucky servant girl who bravely took half a day off work scrubbing kitchen floors to win a gold medal folding bedsheets in the first London games, to Tom Drake, Dressage's first punk, who shocked the sport with his slashed jacket and swear words on his hat. There's the tale of the Lincolnshire javelin thrower who fell under the spell of a cult devoted to the eating of egg and chips; of the mascot of Bexhill-on-Sea's ill fated bid to host the Olympics and "Ample" Arthur Cartwright, whose football career was blighted by an obsession with archaeology. They, and many others, all have a story to tell.

The Hut Product Information
Barbarians V All Blacks 1973: On a grey January afternoon in Cardiff few expected the Baa-Baas to offer much resistance to a rampant New Zealand side. The All Blacks went into their final tour match having recorded victories over Wales Scotland and England: the Barbarians as is their tradition had limited preparation an uncapped player and an obligation to attack. However the Barbarians' side was comprised of many of the truly great players of the era - Duckham Gibson JPR Williams Bennett Edwards Mc Bride and Carmichael - and together they were to produce a truly remarkable team performance including a try from Gareth Edwards in the third minute which has proved with the passage of time to have been one of the best in the history of the game.Soon the All Blacks with outstanding players like Going Batty and Williams began to match their opponents' exhilarating quality. As attack and counter-attack brought a fantastic response from the Arms Park the stage was truly set for the greatest rugby match ever seen...The World Cup Final 1966 - England V West Germany: The time was 5.15pm the date was 30th July 1966 the place was Wembley...and the act was Geoff Hurst's magnificent extra-time goal which secured World Cup victory for England. It is the stuff of legend and everything about that day in the summer of 1966 has gone on to have an enduring hold on our collective imagination.This DVD allows you to relive that magical day with a digitally remastered version of the original BBC broadcast of the match. It also includes a range of additional material exclusively recorded for DVD.Botham's Ashes - The Miracle of Headingley '81: Featuring an interview with Ian Botham and BBC highlights from all five days of England's greatest ever test match.Regularly voted as one of the greatest moments in the history of British sport Ian Botham's 149 not out against Australia at Headingley in 1981 was nothing short of miraculous. But the whole story of that match - and the part played by England's other heroes - is equally fascinating...The third test found England - already one down in the six match series against Australia - in disarray. After poor performances Ian Botham had resigned as captain and the selectors had recalled former skipper Mike Brearley to lead the side. Australia won the toss and immediately set about England's mediocre bowling attack. English cricketing fans feared the worst...Botham's extraordinary second innings as England languished at 135-7 turned the game around. But this was but one story in an absorbing match: Bob Willis's journey from wicketless failure to match-winning hero; Botham's first innings resurgence (a great catch a six-wicket haul and a 50); England's Saturday night odds of 500-1 that even tempted Lillee and Marsh; the terrific contributions of a swashbuckling Graham Dilley and a stonewalling Chris Old; and the mood swing of a swaggering jovial Australia into a frustrated angry and ultimately humbled team.
