About this product

Product Information

Andy Nicholls is the archetypal Scally: a streetwise Evertonian with a wicked sense of humour and an eye for the main chance. He is also an obsessive soccer fan and, as a Category C hooligan - the highest-rating of the National Football Intelligence Unit - was involved in some of the most notorious clashes of the past 30 years. In this remarkably candid autobiography, he recounts his immersion in the hooligan culture of the late 1970s, at a time when fans from Merseyside pioneered the casual fashion that would transform the terrace scene. He soon made a name for himself and became friends with Everton mobs such as Kelly's Heroes, the cocaine-sniffing Snorty Forty and the shadowy County Road Cutters. Nicholls deals unflinchingly with the barbaric knifings for which Merseyside hooligans became notorious, with the accusations of racism that have long been levelled at Everton fans, and with the 1985 Heysel Disaster, at which he was present. He also relates darkly humorous tales of thieving, ticket touting, the bitter rivalries with Manchester United and Liverpool, and how he appeared on the front page of The Sun newspaper for producing a fanzine called Get Into Them. From the publishers of Guvnors (over 47,000 copies sold), Blades Business Crew and Soul Crew, the number one small publishers' bestseller (Booktrack, April 2002) Publicity campaign includes national newspaper serialisation; extensive magazine features; TV, radio and local newspaper interviews; website promotion.
