Feels so good to have a physical copy of this now… excited for everyone to read it. Tom has been heroic helping me get to this stage, not long to go until it’s out… really proud of the final book. #lufc
It’s here… and it’s perfect. @jrcooper26.bsky.social’s alternative history of the mighty #lufc, out 14 August. I know what a huge labour of love it’s been for Jonny, so if you’re a Leeds fan (or just someone who loves mad stats) please get behind him and give it a read.

Every time I re-read this book I forget how utterly bonkers it is… and remain amazed it’s not been made into a documentary. Brilliant book & still my all time favourite. Even once recommended it to former Leeds full back Paul Connolly in Tesco.
