I take it his announcement isn't that he can tell the time or is punctual?

I'm guessing it's either Anne Lucas or Gary Hoffman for the foreword.

club without a home.

Been desperate for someone to write a book about our plight and when it finally happens it's by that clown shoe. Typical!

So it seriously is about the book that someone posted a link to days ago? I’ve never agreed with much of the stick that Simon gets on here, but really that is about the shittiest most self-centred thing imaginable. Counting down for a week, calling it “exciting news” and with PUSB as a tag? The book was an obvious possibility, but I dismissed it on the grounds that nobody would be that narcissistic. To bring back an old-fashioned phrase, what a git.

Kevin Maton Good luck with this project Simon. You're right it's a history that deserves to be written up as accurately and impartially as possible. Was there ever a similar book about Wimbledon's move. Doubt it will be serialised in the Coventry Observer.

Is he seriously bringing up Wimbledon moving to MK when he was part of a council that moved Wasps?

£12.99 is a bit steep for someone who doesn't really read books. Part of me is intrigued though, although not sure itll be any different to what hes reported in his press releases?

You can guarantee it won't be the full truth.

Will be interesting to read to see what is actually included.

He has said he has spoken to everybody involved, have the club given their take on it?

Exclusivity is such a subjective thing it would appear to some people.

It'll just be a CT "opinion piece" spread over 300 pages.

Not sure enough time has passed for people to spill much that we don't know. Even before you consider the court cases going on.

I'll wait and see what other say. Is Ann Lucas recording the audiobook?
