Looking back at years of magical and memorable moments, Simply Red inspects the funny side of the club's fascinating history. From times of celebration to moments of despair, this book is filled with anecdotes, hilarious stories and outrageous moments, covering many of the club's most loved personalities and (not always friendly) rivalries. A must-read for all Manchester United fans.

Jimmy Greaves famously said about football, 'It's a funny old game.' Simply Red confirms the truth of his statement with a collection of amusing anecdotes and memorable quotations based on Manchester United stars of the past and present.

This collection captures the unique excitement, drama and unpredictability of football in the words of Manchester United practitioners. The result is a wry, idiosyncratic and sometimes bizarre catalogue of comic creations. For lovers of the absurd, outrageous, and totally bizarre, this selection of stories and quotes will hopefully make the proverbial cat laugh or at least raise a wry smile. It is a travelogue around the strange ways in which Manchester United fans pursue football pleasure.

From golden balls to golden balls-ups, anyone who is anyone is here: players, managers, commentators and fans. This kit bag of double entendres, quips and stories from the tongues of football's elite will provide reading pleasure for the madly mischievous and wickedly warped. Read on...it's guaranteed to tickle your funny bone!
