Peter O Hanraha-hanrahan Posted March 28, 2015 Report Share Posted March 28, 2015 Anyone else use to read SHOOT! (incorporating Goal) Magazine in the 70s? When they unceremoniously sacked off 'Goal' and reverted just to 'SHOOT!', I stopped buying it. Just didn't seem right, somehow. ! I read SHOOT for a bit and then I moved on to 90 Minutes....which itself disappeared. A couple of the contributors went on to start Loaded Magazine.

dezgimed Posted March 28, 2015 Report Share Posted March 28, 2015 Wonder if Frank Vosey retired from the Skoda business or died? He went into properties after the Skoda biz. Still has a couple dotted around operating as Frank Voisey Properties, but unfortunately died in 2012. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
