The first photograph was taken at our home pitch which was on Common Approach Thundersley as I remember. My guess is between 1974 and 77.
The second photograph is from June 1977 and is of Thundersley and Hadleigh FC and was taken the day (or the day before) Geoff Hubbard died. We were playing in an Anglo German tournament at Benfleet Recreation ground.

I was a close friend of Geoff Hubbard and Brian Lazell and remember Geoff’s tragic death as if it was yesterday. A very sad loss of a young man who would probably have gone on to achieve great things. Tomorrow (19th June) is the 45th anniversary of his passing but those who knew him will never forget.
I remember a lot of these guys and also standing out on the field as a spectator and getting freezing! Geoff’s death was a huge shock to everybody that knew him. A very sad loss.
