Ahoy-hoy! (To quote the authors)

This is a classic slice of the two Dannies, a delicious serving of their old radio show made flesh. Or paper, at least. In a nutshell: two knowledgeable football punditry veterans share quips, tales and bon mots, while keeping the humour level at a page-turning high. Happily, Mr Baker elected to 'tell all' about his time with Paul Gascoigne, while Mr Kelly kept references to Over the Moon to an absolute minimum. Win/win.

The chapter on B&K's trip to the World Cup was particularly good and I sincerely hope that the 'Volume 1' subhead on the cover is a foretaste of more books to come.

Back of the net! 28 Oct 2009
Format:Hardcover
Too little in print today tackles the crucial role played by Kabaddi in the development of televised sport. Thankfully, the two Dannys are on hand to correct this oversight, whilst delivering much that is similarly splendid besides. I wholeheartedly recommend those who take their sport seriously - and not so seriously - to 'get involved'.

Great stuff! 14 Oct 2009
Format:Hardcover
Made me laugh a lot... full of wit and wisdom, plus nicely sentimental in the right places. A good antidote to all those po-faced analyses of the modern game and great for real football fans who despair of the antics of Blatter et al.

Another winner
Exactly what you would expect from these two, funny and revealing. A bit like the QI of the football world.

Witty, engaging and impassioned...
...so says the tagline at the bottom of the front cover. Thoroughly agree. You either love Baker and Kelly or you don't, and I love 'em. Read more

A great book for all supporters
The two Dan's deliver an excellent group of facts, figures & laughs, not enough slating United though, where are their Knighthoods?

This book may well be lost on people who have discovered football via Sky TV and the premiership. For the book is not strictly about the game, nor any debates. Read more

Great stocking filler
I don't think either of the two Dannys are anyones idea of a stocking filler, they are certainly not my type. However their book definitely is. Read more

Two Dannys Good, Very Good
This is a brilliantly conceived and executed book, full of wit and insight. It actually discusses subjects that should have been raised years ago, but that have been ignored. Read more

Clumsy title. Plays on their celebrity
I am a big fan of Danny Baker and, to a lesser extent Danny Kelly, but this is not one of their finest hours. Read more

Slim Pickings
I bought this today and managed to read it in about an hour. It feels distinctly like something that was cobbled together very quickly for the Christmas market. Read more
