Set in the 1980s, Not All-Ticket: From Withernsea High to
Boothferry Park Halt chronicles a dramatic period in the history of
Hull City AFC through the eyes of a young fan from rural East
Yorkshire. From relegation and receivership to the 'Robinson
renaissance', Lusmore experiences a rollercoaster of emotions,
culminating in dismay at perhaps the most contentious managerial
dismissal in the club's history. In the process, he charts a course
through his coming of age, capturing how it feels to follow an
unfashionable team in an often unloved city. He flirts with rival
sporting attractions, then tosses them aside in favour of the
small-fry team in this tatty fish town. The football-fuelled
adrenalin rush is soon replicated in his first forays into the
local music and club scene. Discovering the delights of Hull after
dark, he soon realises that Saturday is about much more than just
the match. First-hand terrace tales and musical memories abound in
this uplifting memoir.
