Synopsis

Along with Hunter Das and Eamon Dunphy, Fred Eyre is widely regarded as having written the seminal book about football - before the likes of Nick Hornby ever tapped into a word-processor. Hailed on publication in 1981 as, Far and away the funniest and most revealing book about football ever written, by The Observer, Kicked Into Touch has sold in excess of a million copies been reprinted 37 times. It was last published in 1991 and this new edition is fully reed, has a new cover, new forewords, new set of photographs and is significantly extended hence the slight change of title. Kicked Into Touch recounts Fred s experiences with more than 30 football clubs in numerous different roles, from ground-staff boy at Manchester City (he was the club s first ever apprentice) to full-time professional League manager. The book also charts Fred s inspirational rise in business when, after he was forced to retire from playing due to injury, he set up his own stationary business with just £100. It went on to become a multi-million pounds concern. Fred Eyre is well known as a much in-demand and highly entertaining after-dinner speaker and broadcaster.
