From Word of Sport:
If you remember the song, then this is for you.
The days of Groves, Carter, Whyte, Merse's curtains and the psycadelic banana kit, brought back to life through Perry's memories and tales of his exploits. It seems hard to believe that it was only the late 80s, early 90s - hardly a lifetime ago - when Perry and his merry men were living the high life causing chaos, although mainly in the bars of London rather than on the pitch...
If the book is truly reminiscent of his time, I expect it to explode into life for the first 100 pages, get you really hooked and then watch in disappointment as another promising chapter falls by the wayside....
From the Publisher:
Perry Groves spent over a decade in the footballing spotlight. Sometimes he was at the top, often he was at the bottom and that's half the reasons the fans loved him so much - and still do.
This is the most truthful and hilarious book about professional football you will ever read. Perry Groves was the first signing by the legendary Arsenal manager George Graham, and that unmistakeable figure with his Tin-Tin haircut and cheeky grin was a player in one of the Gunners' greatest sides. Now he has decided to tell all about his rollercoaster years of booze binges, girl-chasing and gambling sprees.
He's a non-stop fund of hilarious anecdotes, recounting top-flight games played with a hangover, 125 mph motorway chases with international stars, visits to a brothel with an England World Cup hero and revealing how one drunken escapade ended with a group of internationals being questioned over an attempted murder charge.
This is a unique chance to find out what top-flight footballers really get up to off the field and how they behave when the dressing room door is closed.
