Well, unless I've been conned, I have a second hand copy of Children of the Revolution heading my way right now, for £0.01 plus £2.80 postage, courtesy of Amazon.

Book now safely in hands, and in pretty much pristine condition.  What a bargain.

Whatever you do, don't take it to bed tonight intending to just read chapter one. Before you know it dawn will be breaking and it'll be time to get up.

Dave, that is so true, once you start it you cannot put it down.....

Posted this on the villa in the 70s thread.

Picked up a brand new copy still in the cellophane of children of the revolution from a book shop (lion books) in Kidderminster. Owner told me he purchased the whole lot off Richard whitehead when he was trying to fund a trip to oz to see the ashes. Met him in motorway service station and took everything he had all copies never been touched £30 absolute bargain.

I read in my son's programme yesterday that Kenny Swain has an autobiography out. I always wondered why we hadn't seen books from the '80-'83 squad.

Finished reading it last week. Not the most enthralling book I've read. Only 26 pages on his time at 'The Villa' but 54 on his time at Nottm Forest.

Its only one chapter, eleven pages long but one of my favourite pieces of writing about the Villa comes from a book called 'Saturdays Boys' which is a compilation of twenty one chapters by twenty one different authors written about a variety of clubs. The one about Villa is written by Simon Inglis  and it begins and ends 'Yippee ya yayhhh, yippee ya yohhh...' It makes me smile every time I read it.
1p on amazon at the moment.

There's some good stuff in that book. I liked the bit about the Sunday team who played in Argentina's colours because of the "dove grey stockings."
