The Bromley Boys: The True Story of Supporting the Worst Football Club by Dave Roberts, ISBN 9781906032241

> Biography Books > Sport Books > Football Books

Author: Dave Roberts

Will strike a chord with football fans everywhere Adrian Chiles Agonisingly funny perfectly captures the sad futile yet glorious world of the adolescent male football fan Harry Pearson author of The Far Corner In the late 1960s in the warm glow of England winning the World Cup Dave Roberts like most teenage boys his age was football mad. There was just one difference: rather than supporting the likes of Arsenal or Manchester United Daves team of choice was the ever so slightly less glamorous Bromley Football Club one of the last genuinely amateur football teams left fighting for survival in the lowest nonleague division. Bromley Boys is a funny and heartwarming tale of football at the very bottom: Dave turns up to each match with his football boots in his bag just in case the team are a player short; the crowd is always announced as 400 as noone can be bothered to count; the team ship so many goals that in one match the taunting opposition fans actually lose count of the score. Its easy being a football fan when your team are always winning. The Bromley Boys is the touching true story about supporting a club through thin and even thinner: proof that the more your team may lose on the pitch the more there is to gain on the terraces.
