December 24, 201015 yr Saw him earlier, his books coming out next year Bumped into him in M&S last night, too busy to speak to us, think he was on to his agent at Puffin.
December 24, 201015 yr Are we talking fiction or non fiction ? i'm not sure anybody knows, least of all the author
December 24, 201015 yr On about non-fiction books. If that's those brain dead morons who appeared on Danny Dyers show, it must be a contender for the Guinness Book of Records award for the book with the highest amount of single syllable words ever. Their motto is 'grow yer own dope'.
December 24, 201015 yr reckon ive read every book of this genre in this country!.... and the suicide sqaud is by far the worst!...closley followed by the 'bbc' book. best is the soul crew book by the way!....
December 24, 201015 yr and on the subject of mr miami...he taught me everything i know on the virtues of tanning...
December 24, 201015 yr reckon ive read every book of this genre in this country!.... and the suicide sqaud is by far the worst!...closley followed by the 'bbc' book. best is the soul crew book by the way!.... Dont get me wrong Gonzo, when i was young and daft, Bolton used to hold there own down NP, i got a few slaps.And i cant recall Soul Boys coming up in numbers to BP in my lifetime.
December 24, 201015 yr Dont get me wrong Gonzo, when i was young and daft, Bolton used to hold there own down NP, i got a few slaps.And i cant recall Soul Boys coming up in numbers to BP in my lifetime. totally agree,but as in a good read,and not a load of bullshit and never being ran etc,that book exceeds any its field.at least in parts they own up to being done over etc.plus i know the authors are credible.
December 24, 201015 yr shit books, every last one of 'em can't deny i've read a few though you've obviously not read steaming in by colin ward....
December 24, 201015 yr you've obviously not read steaming in by colin ward.... no, read the soul crew one, and agree with your comments about it. i cringe at the thought of an impending book by miamiwhite though
December 24, 201015 yr totally agree,but as in a good read,and not a load of bullshit and never being ran etc,that book exceeds any its field.at least in parts they own up to being done over etc.plus i know the authors are credible. I was working in Torquay in 74, and decided to go to the Cardiff v Munich to meet a mate what was coming down for the match. It was fucking mayhem in the city, they ran the red army ragged after the game. Still have a drink with the same lad to this day and have a laugh.
December 24, 201015 yr no, read the soul crew one, and agree with your comments about it. i cringe at the thought of an impending book by miamiwhite though smiley should just compile every 'ugly' section out white love and that would do!!
December 25, 201015 yr steaming in was the first one I read. never finished any book dedicated to just one club because all are just jam packed full of bullshit - especially a chelsea one which was just laughable.
December 26, 201015 yr Bill Bofford wrote 'Among the Thugs' 20 years ago. An intellegent man who weighed all up sorts of social and phycological reasoning behind what happens wrote about it subjectively rather than 'there were 10 of us and we ran 100 of em, we never run, blah blah wank' bollocks. No book has ever even come close since. Plus (if I remember rightly) he was a champion sausage maker (in a non gay way).

December 26, 201015 yr only one i read was 'among the thugs' was feeling a bit queasy after a night on the rakis is crete read the piece about sucking the blokes eyeball out of its socket
December 27, 201015 yr i liked football factory/head hunters the chelsea ones, basically because they admit to being part fiction (I think, its been a few years) the worst one was some hull bloke who was utd but ran with hull or vice versa, he was a right cunt, 4 of them took on 20 west ham, on a ferry and won, or something
Saw him earlier, his books coming out next year
