Over the years the mobs of Preston North End have fronted up to infamous football firms such as the Chelsea Headhunters the Birmingham City Zulus & the Leeds Service Crew to name just a few. Although the Preston lads were often lacking in big numbers they were always prepared to stand their ground & have a go knowing that it was quality not quantity that would count when standing toe to toe with their rivals. In this brutally honest book staunch PNE fan Bill Routledge recalls the days when the dawn of Saturdays signalled a rush of adrenalin & a wave of anticipation; a time for the lads to put aside the worries of the working week & experience the buzz of mayhem on the terraces. He describes a time when music & fashion were vital to the identity of the firms as well as examining the history of violence at Preston North End the roots of the different factions & how they got their names. Together with other faces from the PNE firms he details hair-raising tales of violent clashes with other mobs as well as the fans misdemeanours on foreign soil. This fascinating insight into life on the frontline is as shocking as it is exciting
- but its not short of laughs either. It is a truthful account of the highs & lows of being a devoted passionate football fan waiting for glory.
