From the Publisher:

Darkly, Deeply, Beautifully Blue is an insider's account of Carlisle United's roller-coaster 2002-3 season. In terse, blackly humorous diary entries, the author - Carlisle's medical officer - charts the club's highs and lows as it struggled in the nether regions of League Division Three and how it narrowly escaped end-of-season disaster-relegation to the Conference.

For all his devotion to the Blues, Haworth is in no way blind to the frailties and absurdities of league football. He tells it how it was and is - the boardroom shenanigans, the cold and wet, the post-game blues and the eternal ineptitude of referees. Haworth is ever hopeful, however: he truly believes that Carlisle United is - or ought to be - a great football team.
