My latest personal project GREASY CHRISTMAS combines my two jobs as ‘full English’ tester & photographer.  Shot over one month last year in and around London, my aim was to capture the humour of often neglected interiors and over saturated hues on offer.

In today’s austere economic times it’s nice to know some things are still reliable and cheap.

See the rest of the project here and feel free to pass it on.

This was the case last Sunday when REALITY FOOTBALL opened at Wembley Stadium. It was such a surprise to see the owners had lined up Man. United v Chelsea to entertain the art lovers.

It was a real bonus for my Nephew, Dad, Brother in law and players from the project !  Big thanks to the other eighty nine thousand people for attending the exhibition which runs for most of the season on Level 2 in Club Wembley…hope you get chance to see the project, or a game.

At last I thought, Mr. Cappello has taken note of my hourly phone calls and wants a one-on-one to talk tactics and team selection. Alas no…THE home of the English game, and to many one of the finest stadiums on the planet, want to exhibit my humble project Reality Football !

What started out as a few snaps on Hackney Marshes, then lead to a nation wide shoot and exhibition in Shoreditch, has now made it to the hollowed halls of Wem-ber-ley, in association with Exhibit X.

So if you happen to be beneath the famous arch in Club Wembley this Sunday with a few minutes to spare in-between prawn sandwiches, check out a few giants of UK football.

Not those lowly lads from Man United or Chelsea but the mighty Surreal Madrid, the magnificent Hackney Martians and a host of other Sunday Leaguers who never in their wildest dreams ever thought they would be gracing such famous walls.

The project will be on show for the following season but if you don’t get chance to visit North London, please visit realityfootball.org to see the unsung heroes of the beautiful game.

The exhibition closes July 20th but the project is available for elsewhere should the right walls get in touch.

Hope you get chance to see the work and feel free to send any comments through to alan@alanpowdrill.com

For those not familiar with the crazy world of tweeting, all you need to know is Mr. Fry is king of it and in the early hours of today (well about 10am) he very kindly tweeted the project that highlights the love for grass roots footy in the UK.
