📚🇲🇦 Delighted to have agreed a second book with @PitchPublishing This time I'll be exploring Moroccan football history and culture through its cities, clubs and the national teams, with the book set to come out in 2027!

Delighted to announce that I have taken delivery of my first published book, entitled ‘Red Handed: the unbelievable tales of Liverpool’s goalkeepers in the twenty-first century’ It is now available for purchase here: h77u00-zs.myshopify.com

Really enjoyed this book. A concise history of a fascinating club. Be sure to read the epilogue, which tells how Rob briefly became a minor celebrity in Boca circles!

The character limit on here can be quite restrictive so I decided to write a book. 'Oh, San Lorenzo: A journey through Argentine football culture' gets to the heart of why Argentina is the best place to watch football in the world – through the lens of the country's finest club.

My love letter to Football Italia releases via Pitch Publishing Aug 18th 2025. Available now for pre-order. A large coffee table book celebrating Football Italia/Gazzetta, the kits, teams, players and manufacturers that made 1992-2002 one of the most iconic periods in football 🇮🇹

Hey @BoxingNewsED. Do you guys have a searchable archive of old issues or any way to find old issues from 1940s?

Gavin, I have excellent news on that front. Another biographer, an outstanding and dedicated writer, just interviewed me for a Bird biography.

The @sundaylongread is probably my favourite thing on the Internet. An email every Sunday with links to incredible articles and stories I would never find otherwise.

Evan Ferguson (20) is the same age Robbie Keane was when he went to Inter Milan. When Robbie Keane left he had scored 12 PL goals, Ferguson has 13. BACK HIM!!!

I asked the Limerick footballers if I could have full access to their game plans, training sessions, review meetings, gym work, coaching discussions and everything else in the lead-up to the Tailteann Cup final. Amazingly, they said yes irishexaminer.com/sport/gaa/arid…

Do any of you keep very old copies (from 1940s) of magazines like Ring magazine or Sports Illustrated?🥊 I'm looking for any articles on boxer Marcel Cerdan. I have the issues where he was on the cover but would love to find more articles discussing his US fights (1946 to 1949).
