10 Years ago
February 19, 201810 years ago I
had my first football picture published in UK newspaper . It was
printed in The Mail on Sunday from Wolverhampton Wanderers and QPR match. It was my
3rd match attended ever and the first and only
time I have missed the kick off and came for a game late … about 25 minutes late .
I stuck on M6 coming
back from F3 racing event at Oulton Park and could not do anything
about it .
At Molineux Stadium I have
parked at Asda superstore at the first available space and rushed to
the ground .
The stewards delayed my
entry to the ground struggling to understand what is my English rumbling
about . I got pissed off , kicked a rubbish bin and they let me in.
I sat behind the goal
having Wolves playing at me first half . I have managed to assemble my 30d with
70-300 IS USM and they scored. Than I’d put together 350d with
Tamron 17-50 2.8 and the 1st half ended.
At half-time I have moved to have
Wolves kicking my end again. They score nice goal to make
it 3-3 late into the game .
Somehow I got
the picture out smoothly to Professional Sport picture desk and then got back to my car – No parking
ticket , nice.
Next week I have
received a cheque for £150 quid for that published picture . A 150 pounds it was almost how much I was
getting doing a warehouse job for 40 hours a week .
