Product Description
FOOTBALL CAN BE CRAZY AT TIMES BUT IT HAS NEVER BEEN AS CRAZY AS THIS BEFORE
An extract from one of many 5 Star UK Amazon Customer Reviews of ‘Football Crazy’ -
Eamonn Harrigan - I read this from cover to cover with barely a break for a cup of tea. The author takes real life characters, the kind we all know and love or loathe from our local teams and he heightens their personalities just enough to make them still credible while making them hilarious. The story trips along at a great pace and the reader finds himself turning pages quickly. In essence this book caricatures perfectly the goings on in a small town and at a small town club - maybe even the goings on at a premiership club. I would highly recommend this to those interested in footie or those who want a good laugh.
*******************************************************************************************
If meat pie millionaire Joe Price had never bought lowly Coca-Cola League Two side Frogley Town and vowed to take them all the way to the top of the Premiership, if football fanatic Stanley Sutton hadn’t dyed his dog Fentonbottom in the club’s colours, if team manager Big Donny Donnelly hadn’t had the acquisition of a mistress as his main priority, if local radio presenter Dave Rave and Frogley Advertiser sports journalist Martin Sneed hadn’t wanted to chase their dreams, if the inmates of the local lunatic asylum hadn’t numbered themselves among Frogley Town’s keenest supporters and if Frogley police chief Superintendent Screwer hadn’t sworn to rid the town of football hooligans, none of this would ever have happened. But unfortunately they all did. Football Crazy – a comic tale of football, sex, madness, sex, violence, and more sex. If you like the books of Tom Sharpe you will love this book by Terry Ravenscroft. Soccer as you've never known it before.

Chrism8te - This has to be my favourite book I have read of TR so far. Drenched in humour from the first page till the last. A must read for all that like comedy.
FOOTBALL CRAZY - YOU'D BE CRAZY NOT TO BUY IT.
