Book Synopsis From the Cowshed to the Kop by : Peter Cormack
Download or read book From the Cowshed to the Kop written by Peter Cormack and published by Black & White Publishing. This book was released on 2012-05-10 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In a playing career spanning nearly two decades, Peter Cormack became a real fans' favourite both at Hibernian FC and with the mighty Liverpool team of the 1970s. Snatched from under the noses of local rivals Hearts, Peter Cormack soon established himself as a skilful and immensely talented midfielder in an excellent Hibs side and went on to score 75 goals in 182 appearances including in the legendary game against Napoli when Hibs beat the Italian giants 5-0 at Easter Road to overturn a seemingly impossible 4-1 deficit. In 1970, he moved to Nottingham Forest, partly as a result of receiving a 12-match ban for two consecutive red cards, and realizing it was finally time to move on. After Forest were relegated, Peter Cormack was signed for Liverpool by the legendary Bill Shankly and joined Reds heroes Kevin Keegan, Tommy Smith and Emlyn Hughes in a team that would later go on to conquer the footballing world. In Cormack's time, however, Liverpool were warming up for European Cup glory with a League Championship, a UEFA Cup double and an FA Cup victory. After a serious injury, Ray Kennedy took over his role in the team and Cormack's time at Liverpool came to an abrupt end.Following a stint at Bristol City and a short time playing alongside George Best back at Hibs, Cormack went into football management, with mixed fortunes, but his lasting achievements in the game both north and south of the border are told with honesty and humour along with some rare insights into some of the greats of the game.

Download or read book Quiet Genius written by Ian Herbert and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-05-04 with total page 369 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The full story of the man who brought unprecedented – and since unmatched – success to Liverpool FC Bob Paisley was the quiet man in the flat cap who swept all domestic and European opposition aside and produced arguably the greatest club team that Britain has ever known. The man whose Liverpool team won trophies at a rate-per-season that dwarfs Sir Alex Ferguson's achievements at Manchester United and who remains the only Briton to lead a team to three European Cups. From Wembley to Rome, Manchester to Madrid, Paisley's team was the one no one could touch. Working in a city which was on its knees, in deep post-industrial decline, still tainted by the 1981 Toxteth riots and in a state of open warfare with Margaret Thatcher, he delivered a golden era – never re-attained since – which made the city of Liverpool synonymous with success and won them supporters the world over. Yet, thirty years since Paisley died, the life and times of this shrewd, intelligent, visionary, modest football man have still never been fully explored and explained. Based on in-depth interviews with Paisley's family and many of the players whom he led to an extraordinary haul of honours between 1974 and 1983, Quiet Genius is the first biography to examine in depth the secrets of Paisley's success. It inspects his man-management strategies, his extraordinary eye for a good player, his uncanny ability to diagnose injuries in his own players and the opposition, and the wicked sense of humour which endeared him to so many. It explores the North-East mining community roots which he cherished, and considers his visionary outlook on the way the game would develop. Quiet Genius is the story of how one modest man accomplished more than any other football manager, found his attributes largely unrecorded and undervalued and, in keeping with the gentler ways of his generation, did not seem to mind. It reveals an individual who seemed out of keeping with the brash, celebrity sport football was becoming, and who succeeded on his own terms. Three decades on from his death, it is a football story that demands to be told.

Book Synopsis Darwen Born, Blackburn Bred: Growing up in the Age of Affluence by : Paul Laxton
Download or read book Darwen Born, Blackburn Bred: Growing up in the Age of Affluence written by Paul Laxton and published by New Generation Publishing. This book was released on 2016-05-25 with total page 299 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is not a scholarly work of history, nor is it truly a memoir or an autobiography, as I am under no illusions that my life merits that kind of treatment. My standpoint is that of the participant observer, and the backdrop is provided by the proud communities of Blackburn and Darwen, where my family lived, where I was educated, and where I worked before moving on to make my own way in life. I am sure that the experiences I describe will resonate with readers in many other once prosperous industrial areas. The key theme of this book is what is what like to grow up in working class communities during what I have called the Age of Affluence, the thirty years that followed World War Two in which the working people of the United Kingdom for the only time in our industrial history, experienced unbroken full employment and saw their lives transformed as a consequence.

Download or read book Jorwerd written by Geert Mak and published by Harvill Secker. This book was released on 2000 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jorwerd is a small village in Friesland in the Netherlands. Geert Mak was born in Friesland and he returned to his roots to explore the 'silent revolution' that has taken place in Jorwerd and other villages like it in the years since the Second World War. The village is a form of social organisation that has lasted at least 2000 years yet it has started, slowly but inexorably, to disappear. Recent studies have shown that, by the year 2025, two thirds of the world's population will live in cities and towns. Geert Mak lived in Jorwerd for six months, gathering the personal histories of Jorwerters past and present. By interweaving their lives with the wider history of Europe, Mak provides an unsentimental portrait of the pleasures and hardships of living in the country, while also making plain how rural life everywhere is under threat from the modern world.

Download or read book Jungle Tales written by John Quinn and published by Random House. This book was released on 2012-09-14 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Years of tradition crashed around the ears of Celtic supporters when the Jungle was demolished and replaced by seating to conform with the Taylor Report. It might never have been the most attractive setting in which to watch football but to the fans who occupied the gentle slopes under the covered North Enclosure it was as familiar as their own living-room. To them it was the nerve-centre of all that was good about their team and about Scottish football in general. There they had gathered to witness the great dramas unfold, the star players weave their artistry, and there they experienced the nerve-jangling, magical nights as Celtic joined the ranks of great European sides in the 1960s. John Quinn spent months interviewing the people who shaped the history of the Jungle. Star players past and present describe their favourite memories and the fans themselves recall the scenes indelibly etched in their minds. Jungle Tales is an exercise in pure nostalgia. It is in many ways a book by the fans for the fans as they reminisce over past glories and long for the days when they will return.
