Torres- My Story

Is "The Boys from the Mersey" worth a read? Looked it up on Amazon nd it looks appealing. Also, was reading one of the reviews and it says that they were not sure if people from outside the city would understand the humour/phrases. However, i usually have no problem understanding the humour as it is very similar to Irish humour and the same being with the phrases. But, what do use think? Would most understand it?

2. Redmen: A Season On The Drink

That sounds like it could be a laugh to read. Is it?

Yes, this and Boys From The Mersey are both very funny.

"44 years with the same bird" is f***in boss. 

I've had trouble with my sleep in the last few days, so I woke up 5am today with no reason. Stayed 2 hours in bed just reading this and I think it's now part of a very small personal list of things better than sleeping.

I'm very much looking forward to read the other books mentioned here.

Just bought this for my Dad.

Which means I'll be reading it in a couple of weeks time.

You do that as well, eh?

How did I miss this back in March? Now that school is over I can concentrate on some essential reading.

I've only read 'Carra' and Keith Salmon's book 'We Had Dreams And Songs To Sing'. I'll be getting on Amazon UK today to place an order. I'm thinking 'Faith of Our Fathers' & '43 Years...' (I only hear/read good things), at the very least. Though, wait. Do any particular books' profits go to LFC? I understand that a book like Keith Salmon's is only making money for himself and his publisher, but are there any published for LFC where they see anything from the sales?

I'll need some advice, though, as I was hoping to get some biographies under my belt, too. Any suggestions?

Looks like I have some reading to do!!!

Pride of place goes to my tatty but autographed 'ian rush autobiography from the eighties.
Then carra, dalglish, shankly and gerrards.

Due to all the great recommendations from you lot i have ordered 5 others from amazon...i thankyou but my bank manager won't!
