OK I missed the Parma game as I was up in London, judging from the comments on here it was an entertaining 0 - 0 and it looks like it may be coming together, what was the team and how did they do? I've spoken to a mate who was at Yeovil and he was impressed by Kiss, did he play, and how did he do?
Second result;
I was pushing a buggy (that's like a pushchair, but posh with wobbly wheels
) around Muswell Hill in North London on Sunday morning, killing time before Sunday lunch al fresco in a local pub, in a local charity shop flicking through the books, I come across a copy of "Double A Side" a compilation of Nick Hornby's two best books,
"Fever Pitch" and "Hi Fidelity" now I lost my copy of Fever Pitch on holiday in Crete many moons ago, but it's a bloody good read, so for 75p I couldn't leave it there (for those of you not familiar with it, well it's about how tough life is as an ARSENAL fan!!!!!, some fascinating and poignant insights, but the guy, apart from his brief flirtation with Cambridge Utd has been spoilt, a genuine fan no doubt about that, but feeling sorry for yourself as a Gooner!!!, he wants to get into the real world, cracking read though,and an insight into how the other half live)
Anyway sat in the beer garden waiting for my nosebag I flick through the book,
it's only signed by the author
Now obviously I don't know if it's genuine, but I mentioned it to the landlord of the Clissold Arms in East Finchley, a huge Gooner as befits the landlord of a North London boozer. Now my signed copy is dated December 97.................a re-release for the Christmas market, and a book signing at a local bookstore? The guy only lives around the corner after all, the landlord showed the signature to a couple of locals, and offered us a free lunch and £100 there and then he was "prepared to take a chance" that it was genuine...........yeah right!
So it might not be the genuine article, but it looks like it might be.
A bit like Cardiff really, sounds like wecould be the real thing (playoff spot), picked up cheap, judging by the posts on Saturday's game.................I've kept the book, it's going in my football library....................looks like I've had a result, the thing is
HAVE WE?
