Reviews

Author Paul Harrison has compiled a joyous celebration of 20 of the club's cult heroes including Bill Shankly, Bob Stokoe, Stan Bowles, Peter Beardsley and Jimmy Glass. Some player biographies can be dull and dry but lifelong fan Harrison injects his prose full of amusing anecdotes, strange facts and newly published interviews that make reading about the most obscure of characters to those outside Cumbria enjoyable - Nathan Davies, The Association of Football Statisticians.
