New Villa Book... sort of...Now available in paperback!

[robbo1874]

I listened to the podcast Percy. You came across very well in it. re: the book I don’t have kindle and live in Aus, so haven’t got a copy. If there’s another way I can get a paper copy online I’ll happily do it and pay postage etc. I’d like a read of it.

[Dave Cooper please]

Just finished reading it. It's a cracker. I wasn't part of that scene, I was a scarfer from the suburbs, but there was no way you could have been a Villa fan back then and not have heard the tales or witnessed the aftermath!
I'll leave a review on Amazon in a bit, but a bit disappointed you didn't sign my copy like you promised.

Thanks for your kind words and I look forward to your Amazon review.

And sorry about the signing, DM on twitter.

Just finished reading my copy and I must say how much I enjoyed it. It is funny, poignant and at times made me stop and think. Also knowing some of the people mentioned within  sparked some of my own memories into life. A GREAT READ!!!

Another great review from someone of this parish - thanks very much for your support. I’ll leave it to them if they want to own up/take the credit:

An excellent read. I’m not from Birmingham and have only spent one year of my life there, but I roamed the city a lot and this story brings my memories to life. All aspects of the protagonists life; growing, football, love, crime, music, friends is documented in a witty and flowing narrative. It has an episodic feel to it with each chapter focussing on one of these aspects which does not interrupt the flow. It would be great filmed in that manner!

Haha you’re back, the man to whom I owe it all, and hasn’t even claimed his free one.

George Bernard Shaw I think.
