'Great insight into this ancient rivalry, the rants, duels, the reasons...A must read.' Henry Winter 'Superb - if you have been brought up on the greatest rivalry in football, you will love this book.' Daniel Taylor, The Athletic 'Fascinating...a must-read not just for the fans of both of these great clubs but anyone with a passion for football.' John Cross, The Daily Mirror 'White and McNulty's writing is so astonishingly powerful and vivid. It brings back so many memories - of famous battles on the pitch, and on the streets outside. They capture it all - the noise, the tension, even the smell. The glory and the fear. This isn't just football history, it's football literature.' Michael Crick, author of The Boss: The Many Sides of Alex Ferguson 'Phil McNulty and Jim White have delved into the most ferocious of rivalries. Two clubs. Two winners. The animosity for each other was a natural spin-off from their geographical closeness. As a player, you couldn't show weakness. The way it should be. Red v Red.' Jim Beglin, Liverpool and Republic Of Ireland defender Praise for Jim White's Manchester United: A Biography... 'A wonderfully entertaining history.' Sunday Telegraph 'Championship sportswriting.' The Guardian 'Engaging.' The Independent 'When historians 1,000 years from now try to fathom the cult of Manchester United Football Club, White will be a good place to start.' Financial Times Praise for Jim White's You'll Win Nothing With Kids: Fathers, Sons and Football... 'The Fever Pitch of the junior league.' Sunday Times 'A fizzingly funny, sad, thoughtful book.' Sunday Telegraph 'Touching, involving and really quite enthralling.' Daily Telegraph 'A pleasure to read.' The Independent
