Hammers in the Heart out on Kindle today

My 2005 book Hammers in the Heart: A Lifetime of Supporting West Ham is out on Kindle today. Click on the link below to peruse.  It begins with my first match in 1970 when there were steel toe-caps in the North Bank and Bobby Moore was on the near post at corners, then romps through John Radford's goal drought, Alan "Whippet" Taylor's Wembley brace,  Frank Lampard falling over and scoring the effing winning goal, the Redknapp years of Foreign Legions and Di Canio madness, Boogers going barmy, Joey Beauchamp going AWOL, relegation under Roeder, chants of "We want a new back four!" at Charlton and winning the play-offs under Pards. Read it and weep…

I can honestly say this book is well worth reading. And not just cos I'm in it....

Cheers, Matt. David Tennant is up for playing you in the film role...

After a lifetime of suffering as a West Ham fan, I think William Hartnell would be more appropriate. As he is now. I hear Brad Pitt has agreed to star as you?
