    Cheers. I read On Fire With Fergie in a oner. Really liked it

    Pattersons book is a good read too
    Read a lot of the books and Webster’s/Patterson’s were particularly good, Jay’s was a laugh as I was probably involved in most chapters...as for the kiddie oan casual Joan Rivers......I would not turn a page and he was told accordingly in Madrid.

    There are many good fitba books out there, some of the best are seria A/ La Liga in my opinion.

      There are some excellent books on Serie A. "Calcio" by John Foot is excellent and one of my favourite books on fitba

        The exiled dandy bumperGraham’s Barca,La Roja are both decent reads, our club took a table at another local club’s fundraiser a couple of years back, Tattie/Bumper were the speakers, had a laugh with Tattie pre gig and still cannot believe our youngest player at Ullevi is gone, on the back of Bumper’s gig I went and got the books which I enjoyed.

          La Roja also a cracking book

          If you want another good book on Spanish fitba. "Working Class Heroes" by Robbie Dunne. Its about the history of Rayo Vallecano and the author following them. He moved to Madrid to write a book on Madrid the city and ended up writing about RV instead

            They say everyone has one book in them. Dans should be used to inspire writers everywhere. If he can get that sh1t published, there’s hope for everyone.

            What’s the script with him anyway? Was he on the sidelines of the ASC & overplayed his involvement or a straight up Walter Mitty? I heard he didn’t have the best time in Madrid.

              He made it onto Danny Dyers program did he not

              I am attempting a book and it will be added to the Dons book list as its technically Dons related.

              My second book will be too

              Edit- So if Rivers can I can

                  Peripherals if that, a Walter best sums him up, absolutely no way would he be seen drinking tea with aging non active chaps in Shawlands pre match next Sunday.

                    I might write a book on the Boghead Youth Army (hated but rated) They were never Scotland’s most successful firm but what a fantastic quiz team they turned out to be. Might’ve lost ‘The Battle if Singer’ but I bet you the f*cking Clydebank Bundy wouldn’t reach the Scottish Pub Quiz Finals

                      Did we lose The Battle Of Singer Station? To be honest, I had a train to catch, so I never slowed down or looked behind me to see who won or lost...

                        Dinna think Brian Irvine's book been mentioned yet - What a Difference a Day Makes.

                        I should have it somewhere in the hoose among boxes that have remained untouched since flitting. Might even be signed by the great man himself , come to think of it.

                            Alastair Guthrie's Pictorial History?

                            One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovitch should also be mentioned as it is obviously based on a day trip to Ibrox.

                              I’d say the train turned up at the right time, which is highly unusual for Scottail on that line. It was a tactical retreat similar to Napoleons from Moscow

                                To be honest, I'd probably buy your book. What else have you been up to?
