Book Description
The sequel to David McVay's highly-acclaimed Steak Diana Ross: Diary of a Football Nobody, has been delivered with all the alacrity of the author's prodigious goalscoring acumen: one every 14 years or so. Titled as creatively as his midfield passes, Steak Diana Ross II: Further diaries of a Football Nobody sees the former Notts County player revisit the 1970s in Nottingham a little later in the decade that discovered prog rock but discarded style while Jimmy Sirrel has returned to Notts County for a second spell with the Magpies rooted in the Division Two relegation zone... and though little has altered at the club in many respects, by the end of the book, the winds of change are about to blow through the domestic game. Britain would be welcoming its first AGBP1million footballer and its first woman Prime Minister. Things could never be the same again.

Book Description
The English Premier League (EPL) is one of the world’s most valuable and high-profile sports leagues, with millions of fans around the globe. The 2016/17 season marked the 25th anniversary of the EPL, providing a unique opportunity to reflect on how it has contributed, both positively and negatively, to key developments in football – and in sport and culture more broadly – at local, national and global levels. Drawing on central themes in the social scientific study of sport, such as globalisation, celebrity, fandom, commercialisation, gender, sexuality and race, this book is the first to assess the historical development and current significance of the EPL. With original contributions from several of the world’s leading football scholars, it provides in-depth case studies of the multifaceted role of the EPL in the contemporary world of sport, as well as offering thought-provoking predications for the future challenges that it will face. The English Premier League: A Socio-Cultural Analysis is a fascinating read for any sport studies student or scholar with a particular interest in football and the sociology of sport.

Book Description
'The Fever PItch of five-a-side' TONY PARSONS A must-have for anyone who has ever played and enjoyed amateur football. James Brown has been playing football since growing up in the backstreets of Leeds. The sudden death of one his long-standing team mates made James ponder the unique bond between men who meet each other once a week for years, but don't know any personal details beyond pitch prowess. Five-a-Side football is where you play the beautiful game for love, not money. You play it for life and you play it everywhere. Your kit is damp and your legs are a leopard's back of bruises. Shirts are often tight around the belly, with your hero's name plastered across your shoulder blades. The showers are too cold in winter and too hot in summer. Your used sports bag stays unpacked in the hall, and your water bottles are under the kitchen sink. The post-match warm down takes place in the pub. As does the match analysis. By contrast the warm up is non-existent. Your performance is patchy and maybe not what it used to be. But we all still think we played great. Five-a-Side is sporting Karaoke - a time and place to live out our dreams. This is a book for all of us - school mates, work colleagues, total strangers - bonded by the desire to blast one into the net from two feet away.

Book Description
Known as a "shock jock diva," Wendy Williams has had a following in the nation's number one media market, New York City, and across the nation from the time she became a top-rated radio personality and "It Girl" in the mid-1990s—whether she's hosting her nationally syndicated television talk show The Wendy Williams Show or doing commentary for the VH1 Fashion Awards, her fans know that Wendy's Got the Heat. Wendy Williams is the kind of media personality that artists love because she builds them up—and fear because she can bring them down. She's interviewed many of the biggest names in entertainment—Jennifer Lopez, Whitney Houston, and Queen Latifah among them—and is known for her ability to disarm and get them to reveal their secrets. Known as both a "shock jock diva" and "the biggest mouth in New York," Wendy Williams is always at the top of her game, whether she's doing commentary for the VH1 Fashion Awards or giving romantic advice. But there's more to the Queen of Urban Radio than meets the mike. Wendy's Got the Heat is her story—about growing up in a predominately white suburb, recovering from drug addiction, struggling to launch a successful career in one of the most male-dominated media industries—and it's by turns painful, hilarious, triumphant, and totally true.

Book Description
IT opens on a rubbish tip that doubles for a training ground littered with refuse engineers - known in those distant pre-politically correct days of 30 years ago as dustmen - and ends, more or less, at Elland Road, home of Leeds United and the European Cup finalists the previous season. The diaries of David McVay, written during his formative years as a teenager with Notts County during the 1970s, invite readers on an undulating and nostalgic soccer sojourn that can never be repeated in the context of the modern game. McVay's jottings create an evocative tapestry of a bygone and almost innocent age for football and his contemporary observations and insights deftly portray the decade that style forgot but one which still gives a generation sleepless nights. From February 1974 to October 1975, the scenery varies from The Shay at Halifax to Old Trafford while the cast of characters includes such luminaries as Don Revie and Brian Clough; the Ford Capri and Cortina provide the car chases with background music courtesy assorted artists such as Slade, Yes and Nick Drake. Of course nobody takes the credit for the wardrobe or dress sense director. On the pitch, Manchester United visit Meado

Book Description
When not writing, journalist Josiah Howard (Donna Summer: Her Life & Music, Blaxploitation Cinema: the Essential Reference Guide) was also a waiter at one of New York City's most popular restaurant/bars. For sixteen years Mr. Howard worked at Restaurant Florent, a Meat Packing District institution that was a favorite hangout of actors, actresses, models, directors, singers and other celebrities of dubious distinction (the establishment also served food to mere mortals!) From Madonna and Mariah Carey to Tom Cruise and Keanu Reeves, from Calvin Klein and Barry Diller to the Olsen Twins and Jerry Seinfeld, Famous People Eat Too! A New York City Food Server's Encounters with the Rich, Famous, Semi-Famous and Infamous offers a rare, behind-the-scenes look at some of the entertainment industry's biggest stars. You can't tell a book by its cover-and you can't tell a celebrity by their cover either. Josiah Howard uncovers them all! Was Diana Ross really the boss? Was Warren Beatty really "on top" of things? And, just who is that woman that looks like Bette Midler's mother? To find out: Put on your white shirt and waiters apron, get a pad and pencil, and make your way over to that table-NOW!
