The Cream of Manchester

Not so long ago Boddingtons were still brewing in the city – remember the catchphrase “The Cream of Manchester”? Having closed the brewery down and moved production they bulldozed the site, and I was determined to get some shots of the demolition of this Manchester legendary brewery – one that many Mancs will remember with great affection. Another set from the archives.

Rochdale Town v Wigan Robin Park 2009-10

Wet and somewhat cold by the end, but at least a day match so could use slower speed. Enjoy

Rochdale Town v Oldham Borough 2009-10

Another evening match. Bitterly cold by the second half and for some reason the battery on my camera decided to give up just after half time, so choice of shots somewhat restricted today.

Some new photos below. Having gone through my negative files there are large numbers of  group shots that were taken for publicity purposes. They show people who came from the same area and were used for press releases. We only did these one year, or maybe two, but they cover literally hundreds of people.

I know a lot of ex MYT people visit this blog and I'm happy for them to download any of the photos they want. But there are simply too many of these to put on the blog (over 100). If people wanted to I could put them onto an image hosting site with a link from here so they could be downloaded, without overwhelming the blog. If people want me to do this then let me know.

In the meantime, some more photos. Enjoy

Rochdale Town v Atherton Collieries 2009-10

A cold evening match with the usual difficulties of shooting under floodlights, but there's still a few worth looking at. Enjoy.
