When Shorts Were Short S3 E5 Barrie Tomlinson (Roy of the Rovers editor) chooses his all-time Comic Book Footballers X1
When Shorts Were Short concerns itself solely with what was actually a very narrow window in football history when teams wore, well, short shorts. The podcast takes 1954 as its starting point, when Umbro made their first England kit with shorter shorts, to 1992, when short shorts were all but finished as Umbro's baggy shorts for Tottenham's new kit, ahead of the '91 FA Cup Final, quickly caught on.
If the shorts weren't short, we don't talk about it.
In the first of two festive specials, this week’s guest is legendary comics editor Barrie Tomlinson, last on in Christmas 2020. Barrie enjoyed a long and illustrious career at Fleetway, initially as a writer. He worked as a sub-editor on Lion before becoming editor of Tiger in 1969 and then famously launching Roy of the Rovers in his own standalone and hugely successful title in 1976. Of course Barrie has worked many more titles than that, including the Daily Mirror football strip Scorer on which he spent 22 long years.
I asked Barrie if he fancied choosing his All-Time Comic Book Footballing X1, a traditional 1-11, no squad numbers and names on shirts, and only two subs allowed, something only introduced at the start of the 1987-88 season.

This is NOT a podcast
I am currently trialling a rebooted Patreon for regular audio dispatchesm available exclusively to Patreon supporters. This is NOT a podcast and I will not be promoting it on podcast platforms as based on 12-13 years of doing this, it’s very difficult for indie creators now to get any traction with their audio work. If it doesn’t work, I can just quietly shut this down and move on.
If you want to listen to the show, you can support the rebooted page @ patreon.com/danielruiztizon
Thank you for your support.

When Shorts Were Short S3 E02 - David Hunt (editor of Scorcher, Battle, Speed, Eagle, Roy of the Rovers and more)
When Shorts Were Short concerns itself solely with what was actually a very narrow window in football history when teams wore, well, short shorts. The podcast takes 1954 as its starting point, when Umbro made their first England kit with shorter shorts, to 1992, when short shorts were all but finished as Umbro's baggy shorts for Tottenham's new kit, ahead of the '91 FA Cup Final, quickly caught on.
If the shorts weren't short, we don't talk about it.
My guest for this episode is one of the finest comic editors to ever come out of the UK, David Hunt. David joined Fleetway in 1961, working on a couple of picture library titles before joining Tiger, then already one of the country’s biggest weekly titles, where he worked under its founding editor Derek Birnage.
By 1970, still only in his mid-20s, David became editor of the new football comic Scorcher, though it styled itself as a football paper, and it’s his years on that title, still my favourite all-time football comic/paper, that made him one of those people I absolutely had to speak to when setting up this show.
David and I had a long chat about his childhood, growing up in bomb-devastated East London just after the War’s end, his journey into comics, his influences, the Scorcher years that kickstarted a long editorial career, and which in the early 90s saw him caught in the eye of the storm after Roy of the Rovers finally folded in controversial fashion. David, as he tells us, was unfairly blamed for the storyline that saw Roy lose his famous left leg and 30 years on, get the chance to right that.
