Brilliant book. This is so hot that it should come with a bag of ice cubes.
A page turning entertaining romp throught the London Underworld. The best book I have read since The Punk Poet by Garry Johnson.

this is definitely a must read book. once I started reading it I could not put it down. Souad shows alot of courage and bravey after everything she has been through she has spoken up about it. I was in tears several times reading this book and I dont care what anyone says this book is definitely fact not fiction. There are issues like this going on in other parts of the world not just the arab part and women like souad are doing a great deal to bring these issues into light.

One of my top 5 hooligan books, and I'm a Newport County fan. Well-written, entertaining, seems to be fairly truthful and having two different points of view in one book is a nice touch. The bits about the casual fashions of the day were of particular interest to me.

We need to be able (hopefully) to educate and tell others about the dangers of people like this. The public and parents need to be on the offensive and make sure that this type of crime cannot be put into action again. Hindsight is a wonderful thing and the narrator, looking back over the time he spent in Soham, can piece together the timeline from witness accounts and his own views. He indeed spent time and asked questions of Huntley and Carr, noting as other journalists did that something wasn't 'quite right'.
I didn't follow the story that carefully at the time in August 2002, just snippetts so it was made more clear to me by reading the tale from the time of the abduction to the trial.
30 Years of Hurt was 30 years of pleasure to most of us now going through a mid life crisis, no longer able to fit in our Lois jeans and more likely to be seen in an M&S jumper than a Lacoste roll neck snatched from a sports shop in Luxemborg or Paris in the early 80's!
This book brought back so many memories it was unreal, I was at many of the games mentioned and Nicholls managed to rewrite lads accounts so well it was like being taken back there with Dr Who in his Tardis.
A top book, buy it, and cherish it as we will never see times like that again!

At the beginning of `Gang leader for a Day', Sudhir Venkatesh is an incredibly naive Sociology student with a great deal of curiosity. Becoming frustrated with the dryness of his chosen subject and wanting to focus on `people' rather than statistics, he heads into the Chicago projects with a backpack full of questionnaires to go through with gang members. With what we later learn, he was lucky he wasn't killed. Sudhir meets the charismatic gang leader, JT, who for whatever reason takes him under his wing and gives him privileged access to life in the projects and gang activity (he does appear to think that Sudhir is writing his biography which might be why he is so co-operative.) Sudhir goes on to mix with the gang and other people in the projects for several ... Read More:

I have a few pages to go and the book is finished,and I will find it hard to put down. This book got it's five stars,half way through.
I have to be honest,and say,I expected it to be just like some of the others,that were based around,undercover work,but it's not. Mr Fulton,took a pride in saving peoples lives,but he also showed great compassion for those he didn't save. Political powers threw him into,a,situation,that he made the best of. How often have politicians,wasted lives,through wars,without not even being there.they did it centuries ago,and are still doing it now. I was in N I in the 70s,but not the same way as Mr Fulton was,and the things he describes,ring true,in every way. It's a shame that situations described in his book have to happen,but they did,and I say ... Read More:
