Yet again in the sequel to Taking it up the Blindside, Jon Prichard, former captain of the Bangkok British Rugby Club breaks all the rules. Cat-out-of-the-bag and spilling-the-beans on what really happens on rugby tours ain't the half of this book's mischief!
If you have only watched rugby from the sidelines or indeed matches broadcast on TV and marvelled at the speed, agility, handling skills and utter respect paid to the referee and you've thought ...what nice gentlemen these sportsmen are... read this book to get another perspective.
Back Up The Blindside is another raunchy, plain speaking, non-PC set of tales, some of which are frankly almost unprintable but are based on real life experiences. Whilst the majority of tales relate to playing rugby in Bangkok and touring in SE Asia there are anecdotal chapters from the past in Jon's younger years in the UK and even one about a shocking golf match!
