Product Description

Review

Tastes may change but class remains. And Roy Race always was, and always will be, class. --Scotland on Sunday

Product Description

This title celebrates another momentous decade in the career of soccer's greatest player, Roy Race, as he competes to win the GBP 30,000 Goal Rush Challenge, teaches how to play American Football, tackles the problem of hooliganism head on and struggles to control Melchester's latest signing - the fiery, arrogant but highly talented Paco Diaz. This volume also features a selection of features and articles taken from the original "Roy of the Rover" comic, including a 2 page feature written by Eric Morecambe. Also included is a selection of period ads for legendary toys including Chopper, Dinky, Corgi and a variety of Kellogg's long defunct breakfast cereals.

Fun Football Book 27 July 2009
By pac
Format:Paperback
I bought this for my 10 year old son as he loves football and I had previously bought him Roy of the Rovers best of the 80's. He really enjoyed reading both these books as there are no football comic magazines around any more. Bring back Roy of the Rovers on a weekly basis!

Excellent!! 23 Nov 2009
Format:Paperback
I bought the 1980's version of this book sometime ago and got this for my Son's 10th Birthday.

Although only 10, he does love this book and says there are no other comics/books like it.

Its been a long time since I used to read Roy of the Rovers....!!! ;0)
