Great interview, Yorky. Reads as if you've known each other years. I'm a big fan of Peace anyway but was unsure if he was the right guy for the job of writing about my hero. This interview allays those fears. Nice one. Will be reading it this week

I met David Peace at his signing evening at the Lexington in Islington. Genuinely nice fella and related to my girlfriend  :)

Although book reviews often implore "this should be compulsory reading" for everyone in whatever ....

This really, really, really should be compulsory reading for every employee of LFC. From Manager to Ball boy.
You shouldn't even be allowed an interview until have read it.


Even though we are starting to turn things round, I deeply believe our long term resurgence would have the strongest foundations if the spirit of the man, of the club, of supporters from days from those early days in the 60's and 70's were re-ignited.

Other clubs can outspend us ... but none of them have this inspirational history, and non have a book that conveys the sheer persistence, grit and determination to turn around a club.

How lucky were we.
How lucky are we to have a book like this inspire us again

Sturridge tweeted redordead, I asked whether the lads were reading the book, but alas no reply. Hopefully a number are, in fact anyone associated with the club should be.
The courts, the rich, the powerful or those in authority never lie. It has been dealt with 'by the courts' nothing to see here run along.
