Sinopse

When five-year-old Michael Chaplin landed in a strange city of ships in the late 1950s, he looked in vain for something that would anchor him to it, make him feel at home. Then, one Saturday afternoon, it came: the roar of a crowd, and a football team to support. Young Michael became an avid Newcastle United fan, and has remained one - if sometimes disenchanted - for over 60 years.

In this football memoir with a difference, the celebrated playwright and screenwriter tells the story of his six-decade love affair with the club, each chapter recreating an iconic Newcastle match: the players who graced the game, the managers in the dug-out, and the backdrop outside the stadium - both the changing face of Newcastle, and the ups and downs of Michael’s own life and career.

This vivid, thoughtful, and entertaining book is an absolute must-listen for all Newcastle United supporters, and indeed - given that the club is often described as everyone’s second favorite - for football fans everywhere.
