    Not sure if you fellas or ladies know but Andrew Woods has written a book regarding Millwall hooligans from the 60's onwards. Although this book isn't just about hooliganism it relates to the areas surrounding the club, it's history plus funny quips from opposing fans.

    I've found it hard to put down and apparently there is another in the pipeline. The interesting thing about this book is that the "so-called" members of the firm have asked to remain anonymous unlike other hooligan books.

    An interesting read from real life events, again not just based on hooliganism.

    Have you finished the book? Worth getting? It gets a drilling on Amazon BUT the reviewers are not WALL. Given our hate for the press and that in the 40 or so years since it started NO ONE has written a book about us, I suspect that the book might be one journalist trudging through the web sites and doing some copy/paste.
    If it has the one about me running into the Boleyn and taking out 50 Hammers armed with just a plastic spoon.........it's worth a read.

    I guess a plastic spoon comes in handy when taking on a ice cream firm........<whistle>

    Can't give you an answer to that fella but what I can say is that I finished the book after 3 days albeit it is not War and Peace but I couldn't put it down.

    A bit like the Colin Johnson book a few years ago. It might be a load of fabricated bollocks but I enjoyed reading it anyhow. If you can part with £6.99 I'd say give it a try it's the price of a couple of beers.
