MARK WARD From Right-Wing to B-Wing . . . Premier League to Prison Published May 30, 2009 THE compelling story of a soul laid bare, Mark Ward on his dramatic fall from grace. The former right-winger who starred for Oldham Athletic, West Ham United, Manchester City, Everton and Birmingham City reveals the truth behind his arrest in May 2005 and how he coped with the nightmare ordeal of being given an eight-year jail sentence, for which he has served four years. Much, much more than the memoirs of a former Premier League player, this is a human interest story that will fascinate and enthral readers - male and female - no matter which team they support. According to Mark, the biggest victims of his drugs-related crime were his family.
PIGS IN THE CITY A Short History of the Sheffield Football Rivalry (On sale date: To be confirmed) THIS is categorically not a history of Sheffield United and Sheffield Wednesday or their famous players, and nor is it about football hooligans. This book is for the huge numbers of people who work hard all week, enjoy their football, get behind their side and then make it back to the pub or their front door without threatening anybody, assaulting anybody, or generally acting like a dick. The title is a reference to the 'pigs' insult that both sets of fans continue to use against the other, and throughout the book the author raises the suggestion Blades and Owls fans (like most arch-rivals) behave in almost exactly the same way.
WEST HAM IN THE SIXTIES The Jack Burkett Story On sale November 1, 2009 WHEN West Ham United won the FA Cup and European Cup Winners' Cup in successive seasons at Wembley during this golden era of football, only seven players took part in both finals. Burkett was one of them and he talks candidly about those years, including playing alongside the World Cup-winning trio of Bobby Moore, Geoff Hurst and Martin Peters. The book also illustrates how West Ham stood on the edge of greatness and yet, inexplicably, allowed it to pass them by. Includes a contribution from Jack's wife, Ann, on being a West Ham WAG.

LIFE OF BRIAN Football lost a unique legend on September 20, 2004, when the inimitable Brian Clough died. The Life of Brian is a lasting tribute to the genius manager who overcame the bitter disappointment of his own playing career being tragically cut short by injury to go on and win the biggest honours in English and European club football with Derby County and Nottingham Forest. There will never be another Cloughie.
