This week I have been catching up with books that I have been meaning to read for ages now. Suffice to say that I haven’t done half as much as I would like to do, but I guess I will just carry on ploughing through it all. The best part of all is that the only book that I have enjoyed is the one made up primarily of pictures.

Studs is a retro album made up of pieces from football magazines throughout the 60’s, 70’s and 80’s, when it would appear that footballers were actually famous for playing football as opposed to who their wife is / was or how much money they make. It is a really interesting read and if anything it will make you smile…

I probably like this piece for all the wrong reasons, but it just made me smile. Some would say that attitudes have changed, but the fact is British women footballers do get paid about 80% less than the average male Premiership footballer… that is a joke. Rachel Yankey is still my favourite female footballer. Anyways on that sombre note I shall leave and carry on reading.
