A good money raiser for your football club here... Saving the memories of your clubs fans for future generations by collating them in a book. When published, your club will benefit from the profits! 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻

Across two books there has been over 1,300 memories saved. 147 people now have a legacy to pass on to future generations. With the same mission and an overhaul of the website, I want to push this project to more clubs so their fans too can benefit. thetalesbook.co.uk

We all collect a lifetime of stories watching our beloved football club, but we never record them! 'Tales of a Pilgrim' puts those unforgettable moments into writing, when we invited fans to submit their memories. This book stands as a timestamp in the history of Boston United.

3⃣ years in and we think the time is right to introduce ourselves... 🙃 Unfortunately we aren't Paul Roots and Dave Retro! 🫡 But, we are seasoned pro's in our own field. We combine and complement each others skillset to form a partnership more deadly than Cole & Yorke! 🤜🤛

It was actually a few tweets sent on the morning of Tuesday 14th May 2019, that really gave us the incentive. We both love retro football shirts, both wanted to be involved in football, but we didn't know where to start. These tweets set the ball rolling, Roots Retro was born!

Recreating retro shirts isn't a new thing. Our focus from the beginning was to partner with clubs further down the pyramid. Clubs who wouldn't usually get the opportunity to introduce a beautiful retro shirt to their supporters. That's where we and the real football fans are!
