Title: Friday,on Friday.
Post by: leefer on Friday, October 11, 2013, 16:29:31
Been away for a few days at work,and have had a bit of time to read the Robin Friday story,i vaguely remember him having a bit of a cult status at Reading in the 70's...what a great read about his life in this book,full of comments and opinions by people who knew him before he died at the age of 38....we would have loved him at Swindon i reckon.
If you get a chance to get the book any footy fan will love it.
Apologies also because i think this book may have been mentioned a while back.

I've read the book a while back Leefer, was a very good read, can recommend it to anyone.

What annoyed me was one of my friends who is a Reading fan, only since they've been a better side the last few years. When i talked to him about the book he'd never heard of Robin Friday! Such a plastic....
