Promotion Winning Black Cats - Rob Mason - Bog - Pitch Publishing Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Promotion Winning Black Cats - Rob Mason - Bog - Pitch Publishing Ltd - Plusbog.dk

From 1890 to 1958, Sunderland were part of football''s elite with a 68-year unbroken run in the top flight. The shock of a first relegation in 1958 was matched by the elation of a first promotion in 1963/64. Starting with that season, the book celebrates every occasion Sunderland went up. What was the secret to each Black Cats promotion? And who did the fans have to thank? Rob Mason gets the inside story through exclusive interviews with players and managers who were at the heart of the action. Moments of magic and mystery are revealed as the story of each season unfolds. From Charlie Hurley''s much-loved 1963/64 side, through to the second Bob Stokoe side to win a trophy at Sunderland in 1976, Ken Knighton winning promotion in his first season as a manager and the teams of Denis Smith and Peter Reid - who each won promotion twice - then on to the ''Sund-Ireland'' era when promotion was won under Mick McCarthy and then Roy Keane, all the great days and great games are here to cherish and enjoy.

Under the Floodlights! - Rob Carless - Bog - Pitch Publishing Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Under the Floodlights! - Rob Carless - Bog - Pitch Publishing Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Under the Floodlights! is the fascinating story of the League Cup, charting its rich history through 64 seasons, with contributions from the people who were there - players, fans, managers, journalists and match officials. The competition was conceived in 1960 as an alternative to the FA Cup, with midweek cup matches to be played under the floodlights. Initially, though, it was met with indifference by clubs and derision by Fleet Street. The format of the competition was changed several times, and it wasn''t until 1967 that it really picked up traction when the final was moved to Wembley and changed to a single leg. It went from strength to strength, with all 92 clubs competing over the next few years and European places up for grabs. Unlike the FA Cup, the League Cup final has featured clubs from the bottom tiers of the Football League. As the competition approaches its 65th anniversary, this book brings us the full untold story.

Jimmy Greaves - Norman Giller - Bog - Pitch Publishing Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Jimmy Greaves - Norman Giller - Bog - Pitch Publishing Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Jimmy Greaves: The One and Only is the sensational and official biography of arguably the greatest British goalscorer of all time, authorised by Jimmy''s widow, Irene, and told by his friend of 64 years, Norman Giller. This brutally honest ''warts ''n'' all'' account covers the many highs and lows of Jimmy''s extraordinary triple career as great footballer, master TV raconteur and then stage comedian, interrupted by six years of alcoholism. Jimmy and Irene lost their four-month-old son to pneumonia when they were barely out of their teens, and Norman examines how this tragedy set the tone for Jimmy''s life. A parade of legends - Sir Geoff Hurst, Sir Bobby Charlton, Denis Law and Harry Redknapp among them - give personal glimpses of Greaves, and Norman, who delivered the eulogy at Jimmy''s funeral, reveals stories of him that will surprise and shock his army of admirers. How did missing the 1966 World Cup Final really affect him? Was he ever drunk on the pitch? Who were his favourite players, and what did he consider his greatest goal?

Scotland in the 60s - Ronnie Mcdevitt - Bog - Pitch Publishing Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Scotland in the 60s - Ronnie Mcdevitt - Bog - Pitch Publishing Ltd - Plusbog.dk

The 1960s heralded a golden age of players who wore the dark blue of Scotland. Law, Gilzean, Baxter, Greig and Johnstone are just some of the names still familiar to supporters today. Bookended by heavy defeats against the Auld Enemy, the decade witnessed just one other defeat in the annual fixture against England and contained both the most-celebrated and horrific of Wembley encounters. The ''60s also included a brief spell with Jock Stein as manager and the only Scotland international to date to be decided in extra time. Valiant but ultimately failed World Cup campaigns included memorable matches against Italy, West Germany and Czechoslovakia; an embarrassing loss to the amateurs of Norway was offset by a six-goal spree in Spain a matter of days later. Set against the backdrop of the Swinging Sixties, Scotland in the 60s looks at each of the 64 matches played by the national side during the period and the consequences of those results. Extensive newspaper and video archive research is complemented by the memories of the players who took part and the reminiscences of supporters and journalists who were there.

Hugging Strangers - Jon Berry - Bog - Pitch Publishing Ltd - Plusbog.dk

Hugging Strangers - Jon Berry - Bog - Pitch Publishing Ltd - Plusbog.dk

What is it like to follow one of English football''s perennial non-achievers? Hugging Strangers is a celebration of what it means to support your club through thick and thin. It speaks to all who love the game but are lumbered - by way of family, geography or plain bad luck - with a team whose glory days are few and far between. At the end of the 1963/64 season Birmingham City stayed in the first division by winning on the last day of the campaign. In the 55 years that followed, the Blues kept either survival or promotion for the final fixture on a further 12 occasions. Stir in nine relegations, eight promotions, along with play-off failures and embarrassing exits from cup competitions and you''ll have an idea of what it means to be a Blues fan. But you don''t have to be a Birmingham fan to enjoy this book. This light-hearted collection of tales from a lifelong, hopeless football addict will strike a chord with anyone who has asked themselves quite why they allow this simple game to assume such importance in their lives.
