About the Author

Adrian Besley is the author of humorous titles Who Do You Think You Are Kidding Mr Klinsmann? and The Fatkins Diet as well as Every Step Counts - a walking fitness guide.

Chris Waddle, who has written the Foreword, is one of the most famous English footballers of the 1980s and 1990s. A key member of England's 1990 World Cup semi-final team, he earned 62 Engand caps and scored six goals. At club level, he played more than 650 times for Newcastle United, Tottenham Hotspur, Marseille and Sheffield Wednesday between 1980 and 1996.

More on this Book

Filled with Shoot! regular features, such as 'Focus On', 'Ask the Expert', 'Shoot Us a Line', 'At Home with the Stars' and 'Football Funnies', this is an ideal gift for footy fans of all ages. Shoot! broke new ground as a football magazine when it first hit the shelves in August 1969. It was written for the younger fan, but mixed serious issues with lighter items. Liberally sprinkled with action photographs, some in full colour, it brought football to life and was bought every week by tens of thousands of fans eager to see their heroes in all their glory. For the more seasoned football supporter, Shoot! The Premier League will bring back fond memories of a time when coiffure came with curtains, football shirts were seriously capacious and Gazza managed to single-handedly resurrect the game by bursting into tears. They'll recall the days when Robbie Fowler favoured a pugnacious nose plaster, David Ginola was supremely confident he was 'worth it' and Football Italia graced our TV screens. Ah, what a time it was to be alive! And for post-millennials, this will be a history lesson, proof positive that their dad's heroes really did exist - and weren't half bad either. Shoot! has seen numerous rivals come and go. Haircuts and fashion styles have changed, players have become more pampered and otherworldly but football remains 11 vs 11 (until the cards come flying out) and it is still the greatest sport in the world.
