Written
by the people who put together ‘When Saturday Comes’ the
best football monthly in the country “for intelligent football
supporters” (yes, there is such a thing). The handy opioniated
A-Z guide is one for the footie enthusiast to dip into occassionally,
and a must for those who like their football quizes. Take the bit
on Hartlepool United where we find nuggests about the club petitioning
Berlin for £2,500 after the armistice to pay for their main
stand that was destroyed by Zeppelin bombs. Further bomb damage
to the stadium the next time hostilitites broke out suggested a
vendatta. Then their was the Hartlepool mascot – H’Angus
the monkey who stood for mayor of Hartlepool in 2002 – and
won! H’Angus - Stuart Drumond - ran on a ticket of free bananas
for local schoolchildren, but once in office – guess what?
He withdrew the offer citing financial constraints.
