It's Raining Bats and Pads captures the sporting and cultural landscape of the late 1980s to mid-90s, and shows the sea change between then and now. It's a romantic jaunt through the halcyon days of Mike Atherton, Neil Fairbrother and Wasim Akram as seen through the eyes of the author, who as a child and young adult lived through that era.
Inglory, Inglory Man United chronicles the travails of United in the 1980s from the perspective of a Warrington-born, diehard schoolboy Red Devil, who could easily have opted for the multiple-title winners from Anfield. A disaster for United in terms of silverware; but the 1980s provided fabulous entertainment and soap opera storylines all the way.
