Latest Release...
And the ref was called Clough
And the ref was called Clough is a special publication that is a tribute not only to
that FA Cup winning team of 1959 but also their club chairman at that time Harold
Alcock who was critical to the club’s progress and his tenure coincided with their
rise to the First Division and that splendid Cup triumph. His daughter Gillian has
kindly donated scores of hitherto unseen photographs recording Forest’s FA Cup run,
rare snapshots of the players and their wives in celebration of the Wembley triumph
and dozens of action images from every round.

Welcome to Reid Publishing
A rummage through some old neglected boxes and memorabilia was the inspiration behind Reid
Publishing and fittingly so.
Because among those faded and dust-laden contents lurked a letter and four truly
evocative images from a young girl’s visit to Pipewood Camp in that distant but
much cherished and lovingly lamented territory we call the past.
That one of our first ventures should reflect those images and embrace that nostalgia
is no coincidence.
Based in Loughborough, Reid Publishing aims to promote local history, local topics
and local authors with a diversity of opinion and imagery, relying on both the written
and the visual to create splashes of colour amid the black and white words and portraits.
If some of the topics are parochial, community-driven and biased to this region,
we make no apologies. If it appeals to broader tastes further away, certainly in
some of the foreign fields to where many local folk have decamped and settled over
the years, then all the better.
Inevitably the talent of its writers will determine the success of a book. And in
Pipewood’s case and other potential projects, some of the contributors are certain
to be the people who appear within those pages, both in words and images they captured
on camera, relating their own unique and memorable recollections.
Please enjoy the publications. Not all of them will remember the past, but for those
that do, they remain a tribute and testament to bygone days that should never be
forgotten.
* Reid Publishing is eager to establish further links with local authors and encourage
and promote fresh ideas and concepts both with fiction and non-fiction material.
