O/T Fit You Reading 3

[Pacman1903]

some interesting stuff in here

[Pacman1903]

What, no 268 goal Luca Toni, even though its written by a Fiorentina fan. Must be because he shags horses

[Pacman1903]

Just finished this

A lot of similarities between me and the author

Quite fancy the Sarajevo derby now(That's Željezničar, fans on the front)

Right pac (or anyone else looking in) I'm off on a short holiday next month and looking for a good book or 2 for flight/chilling out. Any recommendations? Got to be honest I'm more of the Darren Mackie book club persuasion than that of your fine selves. Don't really go for makey on sh*te or fiction as I think some folk call it.

Really liked the 'confessions of a highland hero' that was mentioned on here a while back (I think) also really got stuck in to 'soldier, spy' on a flight recently. Last book I tried was T2 but wasn't for me. Loved the film though.

Anyone any ideas?

I dinna read makey uppy stuff

If you like fitba autobiographies, Paul McGraths Back From the Brink is great, Ibrahimovic, Pirlo are both funny in a very unmodest way, both worth a read.



Fitba related wise -
Behind The Curtain by Johnathon Wilson is a decent book on eastern European fitba,
Das Boot by Raphael Honiigstein (Story of Germany rebuilding from grass roots up)

Away from fitba The Dirt by Motley Crue (you wont need to be a fan) is the best book ive ever read.
The Forgotten Highlander by Alaistair Urqhuart is brilliant too,
Gentle Johnny which is a biography of a safecracker called John Ramensky who spent a lot of time in Peterhead Prison, very good read too.
The Secret Race by Tyler Hamilton about doping in cycling, some eye opener that



Most likely pick them up for pennies on ebay

I'm nae a big football fan outside the dons so don't fancy that German or European eens.

Flicked back a few pages and reckon I might give that 'flawed genius' one a shot. Steve Coogans auto-bio might be a shout to.

Das Reboot was a fascinating read shows what a shower of ****s run our game

The Dirt is simply a classic I ken folk who dinnae like Da Crue and they thought it was ace

[Pacman1903]

Anthony Beevor is a good shout. I have Ardennes in my pile

[Mason89]

On the subject of Motley Crue, my mate owns a single of theirs called Primal Scream because he thought Prinal Scream released a single called Motley Crue

What a d1ck

I'm reading the Gorse trilogy by Patrick Hamilton, and it's very entertaining stuff - a sociopath and his schemes. In case Vintage is looking in, good choice min!

The Dirt by Motley Crue

Eastern Approaches-Fitzroy Maclean

Both bought. Should be sitting outside my campervan, reading them in the sun in a couple of weeks time

[Pacman1903]

You winna regret the Dirt. Its a beezer

[vasilyrats86]

Both guid reads and totally different.

Maclean's books are good just finished Back To Bokhara its off its time (1959) and a tad Mr Cholmondley Warner in places. A bit like Newbys a Short Walk in the Hindu Kush which is another braw read its complete Mr Cholmondley Warner meets Charters and Caldicott
