Customer Reviews

Fun Football Book
I bought this for my 10 year old son as he loves football and I had previously bought him Roy of the Rovers best of the 80's. He really enjoyed reading both these books as there are no football comic magazines around any more. Bring back Roy of the Rovers on a weekly basis!

Excellent!!
I bought the 1980's version of this book sometime ago and got this for my Son's 10th Birthday.

Although only 10, he does love this book and says there are no other comics/books like it.

Its been a long time since I used to read Roy of the Rovers....!!! ;0)

exactly like I remember it
I bought this to show my kids and was delighted to see the quality of the material. The print is even better than the original and even adverts from the comics I had are faithfully reproduced.
Great fun to own this again 30 years later.
