I enjoyed listening to that, thanks for sharing

I didnt say I assumed they were true!

Of Course he has mistreated his gf, (assuming initial reports are true), but has also dissed the club by getting himself in news over this kinda crap.

It's annoying when the club is already all over back pages over Suarez saga. And Sterling having made headlines over similar stuff just a couple months ago, even if he was totally innocent then, you would think he'd have the gumption to keep the feck out of trouble afterwards. It could be argued that "showing the club disrespect" which Brendan rightly applied to Luis equally applies to Raheem over this kinda pricking around.

Good read that, thanks for posting it

The review mentioned Shankly would stop the team bus to give lifts to hitch-hiking away fans and then compel the players to share their sandwiches with them . The reviewer showed the book to one of the Spirit of Shankly lads to verify all these stories and he said he couldn't find any errors in the book at all, except for leaving out second 'k' in Kirkby

Was reviewed in The Observer today. They called it a masterpiece and said it was Peace's best work to date, while acknowledging that it can be hard going in places.

I asked in Easons in Galway today, they said "it had just arrived in the warehouse" but what with the bank holiday weekend probably wouldn't be on their shelves until Wednesday. Will retail at €16.99.

Very well written review of the book on its Amazon page: here. I love this quote from the review "This is football literature on a Homeric scale. The campaigns of the 1960s and 70s are recounted as if the Trojan War was being fought on the rain-sodden pitches of Anfield, Goodison and Highbury." Can't wait to read the book.

Yes I saw that quote from Peace, I think it was on Faber's website when they were announcing that the book was coming out.

It would be fantastic if they could knock out Chelsea.

Gawd our kit is utterly hideous

LOL

+1

Preferably the doofus who designed the kits.

That was rank as well. Those two were definitely a Dumb and Dumber double act. I still believe the shoulder stripes one was the more hideous though.

God yes, I loathed that!!

I'd love to see a fly-on-the-wall documentary about the "brainstorming" that goes into cooking up these kinds of doozies. Some of them are like the kind of assignments Alan Sugar hands out to his dingbat Apprentice wannabees and then fires them for after they hand it in. Except in this case the bloody thing gets greenlighted.

Haha, me too

I look forward to seeing your assessment of it in due course.

How come you got yer mitts on it ahead of its launch? Review copy?

He's like the anti-John Hurt
