  • Fixed

    £20.00

    In 2012, English football was rocked by the biggest match-fixing operation to hit these shores in recent times. An Asian syndicate had infiltrated the Conference South with players being offered vast sums of money to help rig games and net millions of pounds for the fixers. Loyal fans attending matches were oblivious to the fact that outcomes had been predetermined. The remarkable story of how this syndicate was able to take hold of the national sport is told to us by a man who not only played in many of these games, but went to jail for helping to fix them – Moses Swaibu. ‘Fixed’ breaks new ground as Moses Swaibu becomes the first player ever to write openly about how he helped to fix games, revealing exactly what happens on the pitch when a match is being manipulated.

    In this hilarious and indispensable guide to midlife motherhood, Alex shares her own experiences and those of other mums on the joys of first time parenthood – when it arrives that bit later in life. From the fear of leaving it too late when the maybe-baby years of career and meeting the right partner are priorities, to struggles with conception and even the opposite – being an older Mum can be a minefield. In her first book, Alex gives us her ‘winging it’ advice and tips from her experience of pregnancy to the first nine months of her baby. Along with funny stories and anecdotes of first time motherhood, this is a book for mums to read while grappling with breastfeeding, lamenting creaky knees and wondering if body mass post birth is enough to prevent alcohol reaching breast milk.
