Book Description
The Claret Pals are just an ordinary group of Burnley FC supporters who meet up at a pub before every away fixture to eat, drink and sing raucous football songs. However, a series of sickeningly gruesome murders begins occurring close to the pubs they’re meeting in, and the killer is leaving clues seemingly trying to frame the group. With the evidence piling up, the police begin looking closely at The Claret Pals, assuming that the killer must be one of them. Members of the group decide to take matters into their own hands. With time running out, they desperately begin piecing together a puzzle that becomes more complicated. They need to act swiftly because, unknown to them, the killer has shifted their sights, and The Claret Pals are in the centre of the crosshairs. Will they solve the puzzle and prevent the killer striking against them? Or is it already too late?

Book Description
Two or three of them came over and asked what team I was ...they followed me at a distance and when I looked across the platform I saw the other lads from the train getting a good kicking.

In 1967, when Manchester United came to the East End, Micky witnessed the birth of the football hooligan. This is the gripping, inside account of run-ins with the police, rivalry between firms and events such as Heysel that changed the face of football as we know it today.In this unique memoir, the co-author of the bestselling Want Some Aggro? recalls tales from his life as a Hammers fan and draws on the experiences of other dedicated fans to produce a unique memoir recalling the violent days when the notorious InterCity Firm ruled the terraces

Book Description
An in-depth look into the origins of how each NHL team was named, received their logo and design, with interviews by those responsible. Written by those most knowledgeable, you'll learn why every hockey team to every play in the National Hockey League looks the way it does. Nothing unites or divides a random assortment of strangers quite like the hockey team for which they cheer. The passion they hold within them for the New York Rangers, Toronto Maple Leafs, Montreal Canadiens, or Boston Bruins allows them to look past any differences which would have otherwise disrupted a perfectly fine Thanksgiving dinner and channels it into a powerful, shared admiration for their team. We decorate our lives with their logos, stock our wardrobe with their jerseys, and, in some cases, even tattoo our bodies with their iconography and colors. They’re so ingrained in our lives we don’t even think to ask ourselves why Los Angeles celebrates royalty; why Buffalo cheers for not one, but two massive cavalry swords; or why the Broadway Blueshirts named themselves for a law enforcement agency in Texas (or why they even wear blue shirts, for that matter). All that and more is explored in Fabric of the Game, authored by two of the sports world’s leading experts in team branding and design: Chris Creamer and Todd Radom. Tapping into their vast knowledge of the whys and hows, Creamer and Radom explore and share the origin stories behind these and more, talking directly to those involved in the decision processes and designs of the National Hockey League’s team names, logos, and uniforms, pouring through historical accounts to find and deliver the answers to these questions. Learn more about the historied Detroit Red Wings and Chicago Blackhawks, as well as the lost but not forgotten Hartford Whalers and Quebec Nordiques, all the way to the lesser-known Kansas City Scouts and Philadelphia Quakers. Whichever team you pledge allegiance, Fabric of the Game covers them in-depth with research and knowledge for any hockey fan to enjoy.
