Got my copy this morning - I’m looking forward to reading it soon
You’ve missed the apostrophe for the possessive.If your changing bits in the book for a re-print.....maybe I could suggest this for the front cover...?

And, to correct a geographical inexactitude, Penrith is North of Blackpool so the team went UP to play them.* Pendant alert *

Only 20 years?foggy,
There has been a request from PENISOnLine for you to follow up with a book on the Nobbers plight over the past 20 years...
The Doldrum Years
Curryman, never mind “the two of you”. Look back and see who made an unprovoked insult. You want me to not respond?…. You behave yourself and have a proper look before you start having a go.First time I've come back to this thread for a while, expecting to see more sensible comments about the book and instead find a degeneration of the discussion into a quarrel and almost an altercation between two grown adults who should have more sense, thus destroying a great thread for the cause of one-upmanship and vanity.
Behave the two of you.
That's for the first volume onlyOnly 20 years?
Today I learned I don't know what Penrith isAnd, to correct a geographical inexactitude, Penrith is North of Blackpool so the team went UP to play them.

OrderedJust read quite a decent length section on Amazon prime. Reads well and I will be ordering tonight.
Well done, you deserve the plaudits.I heard back from the publisher last night that they are ordering more books, which means they expect to sell out the first print run fairly soon. I'm delighted, and would like to thank everyone who has bought and read the book so much. Getting a second print run and cracking the top 500 on Amazon were my two goals. The book reached 180th on Amazon last week, and now the publisher is preparing for the 2nd print run just two weeks after release. Everything else is a bonus now.
I've requested a handful of changes, including the pesky missing full stop (a penny for anyone else who spots it) and deleting the error about away goals at Notts Forest. Also removed the bit saying Ollie went to Bloomers for his interview as it was Preston Marriott (although, he may have met them there to see the stadium first, I'm sure I got it from him saying it). Also, I reworded the BST being a driving force behind NAPM line to make it a bit clearer it had started before them and they eventually officially backed it, but I kept in that they became a driving force in backing it, as they did. Lastly, I reworded the probably clumsy wording that Tim Fielding 'secured a meeting in Latvia', I didnt mean to give him credit for what Stephen Smith did, but I think it comes across that way, so I just put that he flew over for a meeting.
Thanks to the eagle eyed readers who spotted these issues. What this means is the first editions you all have are now incredibly valuable and you'll be able to flog them on ebay for millions in a few years.
How will she play bingo while reading??Read about 200 pages so far just got past the photo section. However the missus has nicked it, started reading it and has took it with her to bingo tonight.

Can't you take this elsewhere guys? It's Foggy's thread.The only thing “you know” off here is how to piss off genuine Blackpool fans, lad. I couldn’t give a fuck what you think either because you’re not a fan of the team I’m a fan of. You’re a Man United fan.
I’m Blackpool first and nothing second. Unlike you, you piss weak, Man United armchair “supporter”.
You’re like a little schoolboy who can’t make up his mind who to support because a different team won the league that year.
Additionally, you’re everything that punk is against. So that’s two things that you’re a “fan” of and their fan bases detest you. You’re not doing very well are you?
Oi!!! I was enjoying that!!Can't you take this elsewhere guys? It's Foggy's thread.
sure she'll manage a few pages, she got hooked by it straight from the start..How will she play bingo while reading??
*grumble" can't do right for doing wrong on 'ere.Oi!!! I was enjoying that!!
I once went to Bingo with the mrs about 20 years ago , never went again cos I couldn’t keep up with the numbers being able to listen to the numbers called and reading a book at the same time wow ,that is one talented ladyRead about 200 pages so far just got past the photo section. However the missus has nicked it, started reading it and has took it with her to bingo tonight.
She isn’t reading it. It’s been taken away as punishment for forgetting Mother’s Day. And then making it worse by saying “But you’re not my mother!!”I once went to Bingo with the mrs about 20 years ago , never went again cos I couldn’t keep up with the numbers being able to listen to the numbers called and reading a book at the same time wow ,that is one talented lady

They didn’t give out any personal info and were really helpful

To be fair to bloodtangerine he has only ever commented about issues relating to the book, the other bloke started having pot shots at him from nowhere, I would say he’s quite within his rights to defend himselfFirst time I've come back to this thread for a while, expecting to see more sensible comments about the book and instead find a degeneration of the discussion into a quarrel and almost an altercation between two grown adults who should have more sense, thus destroying a great thread for the cause of one-upmanship and vanity.

And you are quite correct thanksTo be fair to bloodtangerine he has only ever commented about issues relating to the book, the other bloke started having pot shots at him from nowhere, I would say he’s quite within his rights to defend himself
Only 55And you are quite correct thanks
however I should just ignore it, I’m 55 and should just let it go sometimes tbh mate. I’m a bit sharp to respond and should just laugh at it
Is that your Fergie style psychology Coach ?……have me like a Raging Bull at training tomorrow night …..very cleverOnly 55
Wow
Hard paper round ?
GoodI’m 63 , I feel good now
Once bigphil got pulled a few times he came on board sticking up for him, maybe texting a few of the avftt pack to try and back him up. He's offered zero regarding the book as its at dispatch.To be fair to bloodtangerine he has only ever commented about issues relating to the book, the other bloke started having pot shots at him from nowhere, I would say he’s quite within his rights to defend himself
No texting..”the Pack” are on WhatsApp lad …we don’t pay for textsOnce bigphil got pulled a few times he came on board sticking up for him, maybe texting a few of the avftt pack to try and back him up. He's offered zero regarding the book as its at dispatch.
He's got a half Man U / Leeds scarf and started keeping ferrets around 1992 apparently.Ooh touched a nerve did I?
You must have been so passionate about it. Waving your half scarf from the Stretford End…
Who am I kidding? You’ll have been at home watching it.
Thought you had me blocked, liar. No change there then.No texting..”the Pack” are on WhatsApp lad …we don’t pay for texts
I know some of the real BASIL’s Top Table who drink at the Layton Insty so you be careful!He's got a half Man U / Leeds scarf and started keeping ferrets around 1992 apparently.
Read the Amazon review and I'm definitely going to order a copy. Great work and a tremendous effort
Yes, I'm sure insults were thrown but sometimes it's better to shake the head and move on. Anyway, I hope you can get it sorted.Firstly read who insulted who with no provocation 1966 to start the unpleasantness please
secondly We took it to the DM section…well Leeds did by offering more insults having started the whole thing, again for no good reason. I think he’s a bit challenged tbh mate
