  • My Rangers

    £22.00

    When Graeme Souness answered an unexpected call in 1986, he left Italy’s Sampdoria to rebuild a Rangers side in decline. What followed was five years of upheaval, controversy and brilliance: the Souness Revolution. In this candid, unflinching memoir – the first time Souness has fully lifted the lid on the key decisions, dressing-room battles and defining moments of that era – he reveals how he reshaped Ibrox. From the explosive signing of Mo Johnston, hijacked from Celtic and breaking a long-standing, unwritten policy against signing Catholic players, to the arrival of English stars like Terry Butcher and Chris Woods, and a tactical shift towards higher tempo and modern professionalism, Souness dragged Rangers into a new age.

  • The Kop

    £25.00

    This work examines how and why the Kop became the globally-renowned stand it is today. It is told through the eyes of Brian Reade, an award-winning journalist, author and Anfield regular for 60 years, the majority spent on the Kop where he is still a season-ticket holder. In that time he has witnessed, and written about, all the highs and lows of Britain’s most successful football club. Reade traces the Kop’s history back to the South African hill it was named after and unearths astonishing parallels between that ‘acre of massacre’ in which Merseyside soldiers were killed and the Hillsborough Disaster almost a century later.

  • Harry Kane

    £20.00

    Harry Kane wasn’t supposed to become one of the world’s best strikers.

A career packed with goals, records and historic achievements. From his childhood in north-east London to becoming England’s all-time leading scorer, Harry Kane’s journey is a story of talent, resilience and relentless ambition. This definitive biography tells the complete story of England’s captain and record goal scorer, from his early years and breakthrough at Tottenham Hotspur, becoming a World Cup Golden Boot winner and national hero, to his big money move to Bayern Munich and his continued quest for glory on football’s biggest stages.

  • The Impossible Job

    £22.00

    Booed by crowds. Sworn at by players. Spat on from the stands. Threatened. Accused. Targeted. Welcome to the world of football refereeing. We’ve all seen referees in football games, but very few of us really know what they go through both on the pitch and once the final whistle goes. In this eye-opening and jaw-dropping new book, journalist William Ralston interviews referees at all levels of the game – from amateur Sunday leagues right up to the bright lights of the Premier League’s top flight, Champions League clashes and even World Cups – to get the full, unvarnished truth of this essential but impossible job.

  • ’66

    £22.00

    1966, with London declared ‘a swinging city’ and John Lennon proclaiming the Beatles ‘more popular than Jesus’, the year’s football World Cup convenes an international community standing at an inflection point, emerging from the long shadow of the Second World War and hurtling towards the future. Propelled by social change, civil rights movements and technological advancement serve as beacons of hope and possibility. Yet, Cold War tensions, the escalation of the Vietnam War, and the space race between America and the Soviet Union project a different image. As China’s Cultural Revolution begins, and talks are initiated to reunify Germany, football has the potential to inflame ideological rivalries, unite old enemies, and allow nations to demonstrate their prowess on a global stage. Michael Calvin provides a portrait of a critical moment in world history.

  • This Is Our Game

    £14.99

    You know when you’re in a football city. The murals, the billboards, the graffiti, the colours on the bars and pubs. No two football cities are the same. That cross on the club badge, commemorating a 1st century fisherman martyr (Ajax). The ‘cemetery’ of graves dedicated to the club’s league rivals (Napoli). The guttural roar of fans chanting ‘Aupa Athletic, aupa Euskal Herria!’ – a fierce declaration of Basque pride and identity, echoing through San Mamés like a battle cry (Bilbao). In a world of increasing corporate and homogenous sport, football cities preserve culture and exhibit the particular and the unique with glorious passion. Fandom in a football city is for everyone: for boys and girls, for elderly men and the infirm; for the fashionable, the outcasts and the hopeless: it gives their days meaning and clarity – it can unite divided cities and divide the otherwise united. This work is a celebration of these unique fan cultures.
