THE WHOLE CONCEPT OF MY BOOK

I posted on the CCMB board that IMHO Gwyn, Corky and all the others involved in organising the Valley Rams did more to reduce and control the Hooligan element at our Club than anyone else had done including the authorities in my 40 years of supporting the City.

you are right there fella

Mad ain't it, if ever there was a book that was against hooliganism, this is it. Someone has commneted about the cover, just shows how ignorant and short sighted they are, the thought behind the cover is to show how far we come. it shows the violence that had blighetd the club and then shows the Police holding up a valley Rams flag with broad smiles on their faces.

As a group we new that for our club to move forward we had to change things, and change them we did, during our existence, the arrest figures showed record falls year on year, since wehave folded the figures have increased again year on year.

The foreword in my book is written by Doctor Cliif Stoot is the most emminent academic involved in Football studies and he still uses our history and experiences at the Rams in all his lectures related to football matters.
I was asked to speak to 300 senior Police match commanders at Liverpool Uni about what we had acheived, does all this sound like a glorification of hooliganism.

I am proud of what the Rams helped to acheive and to have it dismissed in this way is like a kick in the bollocks.
