Just started reading this the other day, quite a good read. Just finished reading about the 2007/2008 season and boy oh boy did it bring back some woeful memories, it was one of the most depressing things I have read! That really was such a heartbreaking season, the Brum game, the Liverpool exit in Europe, Eduardo's injury, etc. What makes it even harder to take is that we were so, so close to winning the league in 2008 (beating Brum and Boro would have done it).
Not to ponder, next up is the chapter covering the 2008/2009 season! (but at least we knew we were crap from day 1 that year).
To be fair it is an honest assessment of the club and of its transformation over the past 12 years, and not even Wenger is beyond criticism. The strength of the book is basically Fynn’s knowledge of the business of football with Whicher’s passion for the club.
Anyone else read it?
