In his introduction to "The Carshalton Story" written in
1958, Eric Alexander referred to "playing the game and playing it fairly but
hard". In these days of shifting values it is good to note that these words can still
be applied at Beddington Park. The new edition by David "Buzz" Geddes, features 100 years of
goals, characters, pleasure and friendship. Here are details of fires, tours, triumphs,
the odd disaster and just the occasional convivial pint. Not too many of us will be able to celebrate the 150th, but
if that generation enjoys the Club as much as we have, they will be privileged indeed.
