Download or read book Send Them Victorious written by David Stubbs and published by John Hunt Publishing. This book was released on 2010 with total page 203 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since 2006, under the guise of the Wing Commander, a somewhat xenophobic veteran of numerous campaigns including the Boer War, David Stubbs has written reports on every major England fixture. These lay stress just not on the inestimable virtues of the England team, who merely by being English hold an advantage over the opposition, but on the shabby deficiencies of their hapless foreign opponents. They're larded with historical reference and cultural speculation as to the frightfulness of the swarthy foe. England, as ever, expects in the run-up to the 2010 World Cup. These reports capture the essence of fervent, St George cross flag waving optimism as footballing fever grips the nation.
Download or read book The Swallow s Tale the Early Years written by Liam O’Conner and published by Balboa Press. This book was released on 2017-05-01 with total page 263 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This story will take you on a rollercoaster ride of adventure and heartbreak, desperation and eventual success but always with a deeper spiritual message as the common thread. This poignant and brutally honest memoir is set against a backdrop of laugh-until-you-cry humour and of emotion which touches the very core. It is a real against all odds story of the underdog, seemingly down and out for the count, face in the mud, battling for breath. But then the devilish Celtic warrior spirit rizes from the ashes as you get to glimpse into the eye of a man who has a fury in his heart and a desire to succeed no matter what is thrown at him. You get to travel from the streets of Cardiff to the sunny suburbs of Johannesburg in an enthralling story. At times it makes you smile with familiarity, on other occasions you are holding your sides with laughter. The sadder parts of the story are not to be read in public unless you have waterproof mascara or a potential excuse for hayfever. The story of Liam OConner is as varied as it is sensitive but underneath it all is still the little red haired boy, full of mischief and ambition. So if youre ready, get a cup of tea and a biscuit and go on a holiday of the mind. This is a must read.

Download or read book The Life of Brian Honour written by John Riddle and published by Andrews UK Limited. This book was released on 2011-07-19 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Brian Honour was born in the former pit village of Horden, County Durham, and his passion from a young age was always to become a professional footballer. Despite the odds and many setbacks, that's exactly what he achieved, giving his all to the game and earning respect from fans, fellow players and the media alike. Many believed his skills would clinch him a place with a Premiership side and, although this was never to be, he is rightly considered a legend and The Life of Brian is a fitting tribute to the man who was affectionately dubbed ‘Mr Hartlepool United'. Brian first became involved in football at the age of four, when Sir Stanley Matthews visited his home. He subsequently signed Schoolboy forms for Aston Villa, where he stayed for three years before being rejected as being too small. He then went for a trial at Darlington and signed as an apprentice, and in 1982, at the age of 18, he obtained a full professional contract. However, his dreams were soon shattered for a second time, when again he was told he was too small by the former Tottenham Hotspur and England fullback Cyril Knowles, then the Darlington manager. Brian moved into non-League football with Peterlee Newtown, before being plucked from the mist at Tow Law by Billy Horner, the Hartlepool United manager. He would stay at the Victoria Ground for almost 11 years as a player before persistent injury forced him to retire. He was voted the supporters’ Player of the Season three times and was a member of the promotion-winning side of 1991. He has proved to be an excellent and inspiring youth coach, and spells in non-League football with Durham City, Horden Colliery Welfare and Bishop Auckland (twice) have run in tandem with his business ‘The Brian Honour Football School’.
Download or read book Dudley Sports Football Club written by Joe Forrest and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2021-09-16 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As the year comes to an end, with all of us isolated from each other by this pandemic, I realize that the football club in which I have been heavily involved in is now 40 years old. I decided to put down in words those who care to share my memories of the club. The best place to start, so I’m told, is at the very beginning, so that would be 1976. (Yes, I know that is more than 40 years ago.) I had recently left lye town football club and really had no more interest in any involvement with football. Joan and I started to frequent the birch coppice pub on Friday nights, where we always met up with a great bunch of lads from quarry bank. Several of these lads all worked together at M&G trailers in lye and played for the local football team, Dunn’s banks rovers. During a conversation, I was told the manager at M&G trailers wanted to speak to me. As I pointed out, I was not looking for a job, so I inquired as to why he wanted to see me. It turned out he himself managed a local works team in Brierley hill and was looking for someone to take over the first team. my initial feelings were forget it, I’m not interested, but after several of the lads continuously bringing it up every week, it got to the point I said I would go along and meet this bloke, really, just out of courtesy. So up to the trailers I go, ask if I can see the works manager and become bombarded with questions: what’s your name, have you got an appointment, what is it about. I was just about to say ‘bollocks I’m off' when this bloke pops his head round the corner. “Are you Joe, I’m Alan bishop”. That was the start of a great friendship with Alan and his wife Shirley.
