From the Publisher:
"After The Match, The Game Begins" is the story of how two childhood mates grew up literally either side of the two closest football grounds in the UK and into one of the most feared firms in the country. Growing up in Dundee as football crazy young boys they faced an early choice, Dundee united or Dundee FC. Kenny McCall chose United and John Robb picked the dark blue of Dundee.
As they approached their teenage years a new youth phenomenon which had already began to appear on the football terraces of Britain, started to spread like wildfire throughout every town and city in Scotland and into Dundee. The Casual was born. Instead of becoming bitter rivals and sworn enemies they stood side by side in the one and only firm in the city which 'defended' both clubs.
This is the true, honest and very unique story of the Dundee Utility thugs.

It's A Fact!
"In Shakespeare's time, mattresses were secured on bed frames by ropes when you pulled on the ropes the mattress tightened, making the bed firmer to sleep on. Hence the phrase, 'Goodnight, sleep tight.' "
