Published four years ago, and this little beauty is still rocking well inside the Top 100 in Amazon’s “European Football Leagues” chart. And now it’s on offer coinciding with my birthday. Can there be a better reason to go out and buy your copy now?

@terrycurran_11 @DutchMasters73 Always great fun talking with my buddy Paul about football and the great Dutch team of the 1970s.

@chrislepkowski Walsall’s Alan Buckley! Saw him notch plenty of goals for the Saddlers. If I remember correctly, I think he also scored one for them against Arsenal in the FA Cup.

Even years after their publication, well impressed to see @ootb2012, @DutchMasters73, @BridesmaidsIn and @O_Jogo_Bonito70 still featuring well in their Amazon sales categories. If you’re looking for a great football read over Easter, go get one! #books @PitchPublishing.

@DutchMasters73 @fussballgeekz A while back, I was also guesting on a talkSPORT programme about that game when Alan Mullery revealed that he told Banks that he should caught the ball, instead of pushing it over the bar. Apparently, the goalkeeper’s reply was not fit to broadcast.

@fussballgeekz In my book @O_Jogo_Bonito70, I relate the story of the gloves that Banks said helped him make that save.

On World Book Day, it’s good to reflect back and remember when I started planning out my first book. Eight publications later, it feels like many decades ago. Here’s a link to my Amazon page. Feel free to indulge and buy one - or two perhaps. 😉
