Product Description

Review
"* 'A book written by a group of Liverpool fans recording their travels around Europe is destined for the bestsellers' list. Here We Go Gathering Cups in May is a supporters' record of how Liverpool FC reached seven European Cup Finals, a feat that no other British club has ever come close to achieving.' - Liverpool Daily Post * 'All [seven writers] are worth reading, especially to any student of football culture.' - Times Online Fanzine"

Product Description
Seven European Cup finals. Seven fans. Seven amazing adventures following the team they love. This book celebrates the achievements of Liverpool FC in Europe, and in particular a love affair with Old Big Ears - the European Cup. It's an ongoing affair that began with the legendary and, in those days, unprecedented exodus of 30,000 Liverpool fans to Rome in 1977, has taken in the glories of Paris and Istanbul, endured the horror of Brussels, and still burns as brightly today with Athens 2007, just the latest staging post of Liverpool's trans-European express.Above all, "Here We Go Gathering Cups In May" tells of the bond between a club and its fans: the lengths those fans will go to in order to be there at the final to cheer on their team, vivid accounts of what happened along the way, their escapades in some of Europe's iconic capitals, and their recollections of those historic nights - nights of glory and, sometimes, nights of tragedy.

5.0 out of 5 stars Walk on, 15 Jul 2008
By Red (Liverpool) - See all my reviews
  
If you enjoy reading about Liverpool then this will occupy a few hours and stimulate your memory of those glory nights at Anfield and the beer fuelled European trips that followed them. I`m a season ticket holder, love to watch Liverpool and love to read about them too. If you like thriller stories then try Soft Target by Conrad Jones, football and terrorism set in Liverpool, its shocking. Back to this one though,Seven European Cup finals. Seven fans. Seven amazing adventures following the team they love. This book celebrates the achievements of Liverpool FC in Europe, and in particular a love affair with Old Big Ears - the European Cup. It's an ongoing affair that began with the legendary and, in those days, unprecedented exodus of 30,000 Liverpool fans to Rome in 1977, has taken in the glories of Paris and Istanbul, endured the horror of Brussels, and still burns as brightly today with Athens 2007, just the latest staging post of Liverpool's trans-European express. Above all, Here We Go Gathering Cups In May tells of the bond between a club and its fans: the lengths those fans will go to in order to be there at the final to cheer on their team, vivid accounts of what happened along the way, their escapades in some of Europe's iconic capitals, and their recollections of those historic nights - nights of glory and, sometimes, nights of tragedy.

5.0 out of 5 stars A must for all Liverpool fans, 6 Sep 2007
By Leo McMarley (Edinburgh) - See all my reviews
This is a fantastic book. It's been overdue, a brilliant account by 7 genuine fans who make you feel as if you were there with the boys in red at some of the greatest moments in Liverpool's history.

5.0 out of 5 stars good as it gets, 3 Feb 2008
This is about as good as a footy book gets - players, managers and directors come and go, but the fanatical supporters live lives through their alliegance to one football team.

In these pages the message reads loud and clear: I love football, I love Liverpool and I love having a laugh

Brilliant
