There have been several books in the past on what it’s like to follow Leeds United, notably Jeffries’ and Marr’s Love hurts, and there will no doubt be more, but Palmer’s year in the life as a White will be hard to beat. From the highs to the lows, this book captures perfectly the agony and ecstasy of following a club, and while you never know what is going to happen next, there always seems something worth looking forward to. From radio, to tele-text, to away matches, sometimes you wish you were there; sometimes you have to put up with people wondering why you bother. For fellow Leeds fans though, it all makes perfect sense. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
