5.0 out of 5 stars For fans of the Fiver, and more!, 9 Feb 2009

By	Valdemar (London) - See all my reviews

I bought this on the strength of Scott Murray's hilarious and anarchic writing for the Guardian online's Fiver column. However this is a much straighter proposition, but no worse for it. A selection of fascinating anecdotes about teams and players you know and a lot you won't. It's well-written enough to pull in the casual reader, but with enough authority to satisfy the most anoraky fan.

Football books are two a penny, so finding a really good one like this is well worth shouting about.

5.0 out of 5 stars A brilliant find..., 10 Nov 2008

By	Taf X - See all my reviews

This book is fascinating...I thought I knew a lot about football, but there are so many little stories you haven't heard before, and also interesting facts and angles on the stories you have heard before. Completely outclasses the usual books in this genre...

5.0 out of 5 stars Like a good Christmas dinner...., 7 Nov 2008

By	couch chip "couch chip" (couch chip) - See all my reviews

This book is very satisfying ...one that won't just be tossed aside after a quick skim..plenty of reason to go back for more.. well enough written and researched to be interesting for football fans and non football fans
