 MEMORIES GOOD AND BAD !! August 10, 2006
L. R. Neville (WALES)
This book is an excellent read from start to finish. I am in the right age group to remember every game and goal like Tom. I am pleased I am not the only "Nutter" who goes in search of Radios and T.V's to get results. The memories come thick and fast, this is the best footie book I have read for ages.
It's been emotional September 12, 2005
1 out of 1 found this review helpful
This is more than just a book about football and the following of. There are plenty of great football references true, but overall Palmer's book is about his own personal and very moving journeys, not just his travels following the most fascinating football team around.If you're looking for the usual footie violence and our gang's harder than yours fodder, you'll be disappointed. If you're looking for a very peronal, insightful, emotive and entertaining book, you will not be disappointed. This book is from a fan expressing themselves in a highly touching way and how anyone can accuse it of being shallow is beyonf me, they must have been reading it upside down or with their blinkers on.
The best Leeds Book Ive Read July 29, 2005

Got this from the Leeds shop in Leeds city centre. Din't like to see Venables on the cover, but bought it anyway. Good read. Funny. Lots of good memories. And bad ones. Think the author handles the difficult stuff well.
Good read for a Leeds fan July 8, 2005
I loved this book. My mates went on about it so much, that I had to get it. It's about Leeds United before it all went down hill. It's honest, warts n all. What I like best is that the man who wrote it doesn't make himself out to be the best Leeds fan in the world. He's just a normal home fan (and a few away games) like most of us. He has a life as well as football and has to juggle. I have kids, a wife, limited cash. I can't justify going to every game. So, that half the book is about watching on TV or listening on the radio, rang a lot of bells with me. Also, the writer takes the mickey out of himself. I like a writer with a sense of humour. Eight out of ten.
An Honest Account for the Common Fan July 27, 2004
4 out of 5 found this review helpful
The review below is somewhat harsh. This is an honest account by a fan who writes of over 800 games attended in 25 years. I found his commitment to his ill wife over his football club moving rather than irritating. If you don't have a 100% record since 1919 and you have more to your life than football, I'd recommend it.
