    Has any body here read this book? For some reason I wasn´t aware of it till today and sounds like it would be a good read. Mostly positive reviews on Amazon, any body here recommend?

    Thanks

    Definitely recommend it. Well written and a bit of an eyeopener.

    It's brilliant, one of the best Barnsley-related books I've read...about seven years since I've read it to be honest I may have to get hold of another copy.

    It's about all the debauchery going on at the time and how because they'd hit the big league loads of women use to go down to the dressing rooms and sleep with the players.

    I've heard a few stories that didn't go in the book from this era such as who was Barnsley's Graham Rix who used to shag bunking school girls in there.

    Good read, a few years since I read it. I would say you can have my copy but I did a clear out of books a while back and don't recall seeing it. Think I lent it to someone ages back but can't remember who!
