Don Price Livres

From being the butt of jokes to domestic treble winners, Manchester City fans have endured more ups and downs than most football supporters over the past 30 years as they journeyed down the divisions before bouncing back in spectacular style under a new owner with unlimited wealth. Yet throughout this long rollercoaster journey City fans stayed loyal to their club -- averaging over 25,000 most seasons when other large clubs have seen attendances slump well below that in bleak times. Don Price follows up his naval memoirs and last year's 'We Never Win at Home...' with a final collection of memories from is travels with City alongside fanzine editors Dave Wallace, Phill Gatenby and Sean Riley, a City fan who has missed just one game in 35 years and that through no fault of his own! What emerges is a support still in disbelief that after years of their team being the punchline for jokes by their neighbours and rivals they now hold the upper hand and rule the roost in English football.

Growing up in Manchester during the fifties and sixties, Don's dream of becoming a professional footballer was thwarted by his lack of skill. His passion for the game remained undiminished, leading him to establish one of the largest football supporters' branches in the UK, where he served as chairman for a decade. This engaging memoir humorously details his experiences in the Royal Navy, the organization of memorable charity events featuring football legends, and the amusing away trips he coordinated, offering a heartfelt tribute to football fandom.
