Description

What was it like to be a die-hard Newcastle fan stuck in the void between the club’s Wembley glory days of the 1950s and its dazzling entertainers of the 90s? This is one supporter’s tragi-comic memoir, dedicated to anyone who calls themselves a football fan and doesn’t only sing when they’re winning.

About the author

After two decades of writing and production in magazines and regional newspapers, including The Northern Echo and the hit football publication Match, Gary spent 16 years in the backroom team at a title-winning club in another sport. His story of a young man's support for Newcastle United in challenging times draws on his collection of notebooks, diaries, cuttings and scrapbooks from the time.
