Was written by a reporter who had complete access to everything at Millwall for a whole season. It's a great read even if your not a Millwall fan. Shows how much football can mean to the fans and also how much it effects the players lives. He wasn't afraid to paint a few players in a bad light which they very much deserve.
Yeah, I usually read his articles in Life's a Pitch, not bad. That actually sounds like a Tottenham book I read over the summer, on the 1972 season when they ended up winning the UEFA cup. The times of Bill Nicholson, Martin Peters, Martin Chivers, Pat Jennings and all that lot. It was great. I'll definitely give yours a go.

David Clayton, Rodney Marsh, Paul Lake, whoever, whatever role, whatever era. For some reason our books are always highly praised for bein such good reads (although that's probably due to our overly dramatic history and overly loyal supporters... Except those who sit in the Colin Bell Stand...)
Yeah, I was quite interested in the one about Paul Lake when it came out (about a year ago was it, already?)
Such a weird and sad story, but I guess it happens in every club...
