    I actually thought this was a piss take at first. One of my happiest memories of football was seeing that **** Gerrard fall on his arse and then Liverpool bottling it. I despise them and only a Liverpool fan could bring out a 'book' like this. Anyone who would read such a pile of ****, let alone enjoy it needs to seek immediate medical advice, possibly even sectioned under the mental health act.

    The reviews are f**king brilliant mind!

    'By the final chapter of this book I was kneeling on the floor of my living room, floods of tears pattering onto my replica kit, wailing like a hysterical gibbon. My dogs, Rushie and Aldo, wailed in solidarity with me. They understood; my wife didn't. I felled her with a right hook'

    I spend a week each year working in Geordieland, and love it, one of the best areas in the UK for humour and friendliness.
    When you finished second, at least you did it with style, but never belittled yourself with anything as pathetic as this book.

    Yea, joking apart, it seems the good old days of footie for the genuine fan has long gone, its all about stuff the regular supporters, we want the corporate seats. And didn't you have some joker (forgot his name) bragging about how much they make on selling shirts?.

    But sadly its the same at every club.

    I'll be watching a few Gateshead conference games this year to try to reconnect a bit.

    Got a season ticket for both personally (though the Gateshead one is for 15 games). Which works out well because only 6 of the 23 Gateshead home games clash with Newcastle home games.
