Steve Batchelor is a family man, a retired businessman and a football fan. In 1966, as a 17 year old, he was a spectator at all of England's 1966 World Cup matches including the epic final In 2006 he wrote book entitled 'I was there in '66' telling of his experiences at the time and also what it was like to be living in 'swinging London' in the sixties with tales of family life and even seeing Jimmy Page & Jeff Beck playing in the local music club He also managed to squeeze a footnote into the book highlighting the achievements of Queens Park Rangers during their 1967 League cup success as he has been a lifelong supporter The book has been on continuous sale via Amazon ever since and will shortly be released as a '60th anniversary edition' containing some additional text and pictures Steve was an active sportsman playing amateur football for many years before taking up distance running and completed the London Marathon in 1998 under 4 hours. In 2019 he discovered the joys of Walking Football and realised what a huge mental & physical benefit it gave to the people that played it, especially at the club he joined in Northampton, where he was compelled by the founder, Phil Andrews to compile a book telling their individual stories and this was published in May 2022 entitled 'Walking back to happiness: Tales of Walking Footballers' and this book has been very well received by the walking football fraternity At present, Steve is happy to be a member of Moulton Masters Walking Football club in addition to belonging to a local book club and an artists group but has no current plans for further authorship - yet...!
