Product Description

When David Johnson needed an excuse to go to the first game of the season, he told his wife he was writing a book about following Stoke City. The alarming outcome of this deceit, of course, was that he actually did have to write a book about following Stoke City. The result is a funny and thoughtful account of one of England s most unfashionable club's historic promotion to the Premier League for the first time in their history. But it s much more than that. Tie Me To The Mast is a book for football fans everywhere, for anyone going through (or considering) a mid-life crisis, for paranoid parents, for the millions of us who struggle to load a dishwasher and for anyone who feels slightly at odds with what s expected of them.
