Superb!!! 4 July 2009
Format:Paperback
This is by far the best book about Liverpool FC that I have ever read. Brian Reade's passion (no, make that obsession) is matched only by his economical, yet extremely powerful way with words. It is frequently 'laugh-out-loud', but is also heartbreaking to the point of actual tears (with good reason too)... If you support Liverpool therefore, or even if you don't, I can't recommend this book highly enough.

I agree with the other reviewer, Brian Reade writes a compelling book with the rollercoaster of emotions that following Liverpool over decades bring with it. He doesn't shy away from unpleasant truths (blame over Heysel) and neither is he willing to lay down and accept anything less than the real truth over Hillsborough.
This book will make you laugh and it will make you cry. More than anything it will make you proud to be a Scouser. Our inability to be prodded, poked or pigeon-holed and our ability to always see the bright side and the black humour in some awful situations.
Congratulations to Reade on writing a football book which is nothing like some of the saccharine sweet sycophantic scribblings of some of his journalistic contemporaries.
Highly recommended to any football fan or student of late 20th Century social history.

What an amazing read!! If you are a Liverpool fan then this is a must read book.
It is full of all those nights we all remember along with that scouse humour that will make you laugh from the bottom of your belly!
Snap it up Redmen!!
