Reviews
Kevin's immense knowledge shines on every page. -- Gary Lineker
This is a football book by a fan for the fans. A treasure trove of fun and fascinating facts on every club, including yours, with as much time devoted to Leyton Orient, as to Liverpool, to Mansfield Town as to Manchester City. Worth buying just to discover the origin of the name Gillingham. Despite being from South London the author has managed to string several sentences together. -- Alan Davies
This book is very funny and one all football fans will enjoy. So authentic you can almost smell the fried onions. -- Freddie Flintoff
Kevin is a very funny man and a Crystal Palace fan. The two don't always go together but this is a brilliant, laugh-out loud book. -- Jo Brand
Very funny, informative and full of the sort of quirky facts I can use to impress my brother. -- Clare Balding
Excellent fun * The Times *
An entertaining romp through the back alleys and glamour parks of English football * FourFourTwo *
Brilliant... I loved this book so much... Superb. -- Phil Williams * Times Radio *
I'm going to recommend this by the very funny Kevin Day, even though It includes a chapter on why you shouldn't support Chelsea. Which I believe I'm in. Possibly as one of the reasons. -- David Baddiel
An absolute belter -- Paul Ross * Talksport *
