by Richard Havers It s a funny ol game, well it is according to that legendary scoring machine James Peter Greaves (426 goals), but to William Shankley OBE it s not a matter of life and death, it s far more important! But whichever way you look at it, football has thrown up some very funny characters and some great one-liners. Many of the best football funnies are included here, helped along by some great photography from the Daily Mirror s wonderful archive some of which are very funny in their own right. We ll hope you ll be over the moon with this little book and definitely not as sick as a parrot .
