About this product

Product Information

This is a unique and remarkable football story. Ten years ago, Fleetwood Town were playing in the North-West Counties League in front of fewer than 100 spectators. In May 2014, Fleetwood won the League Two play-off final at Wembley to elevate them to League One status. This was the club's sixth promotion in a decade. Many have contributed to the success, but two figures stand out. Andy Pilley, an ambitious businessman joined in 2004 and was elected Chairman almost immediately. Pilley has created an impressive stadium and a successful team as well as galvanizing a town that has suffered since the demise of its fishing industry. Defender Nathan Pond has been ever-present throughout this period after signing as an 18 year old in 2003. Pond has matured year on year and captained Fleetwood as they started their League One campaign. This was his seventh league with one club, earning him a place in this year's Guinness Book of Records. This book charts a remarkable rise. It is full of facts, anecdotes and many memorable characters and games.

  • Great Footy Story

    This is a great read for any football fan showing how one mans dream, a gang of true supporters and some really good players can make a dream come true, some sour grapes mentioned by others but you have to admire the conviction and dedication of the few which became the many known as the 'Cod Army' Yes I am biased but even Blackpool fans would have like Andy Pilley at the helm.
