If you've ever read "Fever Pitch" and liked it, you'll LOVE this. It's not about the Arsenal, or even the Villa, or Dingles - it's about THE ALBION! - and it's in proper Black Country dialect.
I had it for Christmas, started it on Wednesday, and couldn't put it down. I've laughed out loud (and cried out loud) this last few days. Can't recommend it enough! You won't be disappointed. Imperative reading for all Albion fans, and once you've read it tell your friends, and neighbours at The Hawthorns.

Just finished the book and thought it a cracking read. It was very well crafted with characters you could relate to and cared about. Thought the relationship between Matthew and Aasha was particularly poignant.
The football content was enjoyable and I relived some great memories.
Having read Ska’ds excellent match threads I always suspected he was a gifted wordsmith.
