James Hunt and Niki Lauda defined an era in Formula 1 in the 70s. Their battle for the 1976 World Championship is still regarded as one of the most exciting and dramatic in the sport's history. This is the story of that season and much more. With Lauda’s return from life-threatening injuries the stuff of legend and Hunt’s last gasp title success bringing a whole new generation of followers previously immune to the sport, the Playboy and the Rat brings that story to life once more. After that remarkable season, their careers, and their lives, went in almost polar opposite directions, with Lauda becoming the respected elder statesman of the sport. Hunt died at an unseemly age after a life that typified the image of a racing driver.

On The Street Where You Live: Growing up in the 1950s

Redding, Tony

The tale of West Ham United's two 1960's cup winning teams made up entirely of English players. The last time this feat was achieved. It is a compelling book about a unique time in English football. This is primarily for fans of West Ham United, but will also appeal to those who love football history, especially those World Cup winning heroes, Bobby Moore, Geoff Hurst and Martin Peters who all feature in the teams. Foreword by Martin Peters MBE. The young men who played in West Ham’s FA Cup Final victory over Preston North End in 1964 were all born and raised in England. In each tie from the third round, only English players had had worn the Hammers over their hearts. This feat has not been repeated since and is unlikely to be replicated in the future. A year later West Ham fielded another all-English team to win the European Cup-Winners’ Cup, something no other English club has ever done. Thus, the West Ham players of 1964 and 1965 were The First And Last Englishmen, and this is their story. It is a tale told partly from the point of view of Irons striker Alan Sealey, who was right in the middle of the action, and his team-mates. But the voice of the supporters is just as important in this epic. West Ham’s rise to European glory is portrayed through the memories of those who played and of those who watched. It is a compelling book about a unique time in English football.

Cliff Green has been an Everton fan for 43 years. From 2004 until 2012, while overseas, he was a regular contributor to the now defunct fanzine ‘Speke from the Harbour’. These 31 articles discuss every pressing issue of the modern day game from why England will never win anything to what happened to the obstruction rule? From racism to Rooney, from fair play to financial crises. And while this book gives a chronology of recent events in the goldfish bowl of the professional game, there’s always the underlying theme of what it is to support a team that is so close and yet so far from Champions League football. Success guaranteed by a foreign billionaire investor or heritage and self-respect preserved as the trophy cabinet gathers dust? A dilemma faced by many real fans and Cliff Green expresses this anguish better than most.

Bad Blood - Birmingham City V Aston Villa: A biased Bluenoseview of the rivalry

Dixon, Keith

<p>'Follow me and Leeds United' is based on a diary Heidi kept in the '70s when she didn’t miss a Leeds United match, home or away, for seven years. It is about being a girl in a man's world when Leeds were one of the best teams in Europe. As a female it shows what lengths she had had to go to in order to follow her team and the problems/violence that she encountered for daring to be female and going to football matches. Although based on her experiences as a female football supporter following the most successful club of the era, it brings to life what it was like for all football fans to follow their team during the violence of the ‘70s. It is not just about the football, it is about the fun of following your team, the camaraderie and the ensuing lasting friendships. For anyone who followed football in the ‘70s, especially if you were one of the rare female fans, this book is for you.</p>
