According to Eric Cantona, ‘You can change your wife, your politics, your religion, but never, never can you change your favourite football team.’ I’ve never had much time for Cantona and in my book I will break this taboo. Disillusioned with Arsenal and the Premier League, this is the story of my search for a non-league team to support.

Reviews

‘His blog posts often have a conversational tone and a clear, engaging writing style that flows well. He often includes anecdotes, personal experiences and observations to add depth and character to his writing. He also has a tendency to use humor and irony to keep the reader engaged’ – ChatGPT

‘Just had a quick look through your publication and bits I’ve read sound quite good. Have you got Uncle Howard’s address as I’m sure he would love a copy? If not bring one with you and I can send it to him for you when you next come down. Love Mum xxxxx’

‘I need a wee, but I want to carry on reading’ – Mrs C on Turncoat.

‘Pains me to say, but a pretty good read so far….Who knew you could write.’ – Begrudging praise from a mate.

And a proper review on Goodreads

I am a part-time writer and non-league football fan. I’m currently working on my second book: Groundhopper: Tales from the Footballing Equivalent of Trainspotting.

I can also lay a tenuous claim to being an adventurer, with my guest blog for Alastair Humphries here
