A couple of months back, I reviewed the book Anfield of Dreams by Neil Dunkin and although it wasn't exactly my kind of book, there are many who don't share my opinion. Proof of that comes not only from the very healthy sales figures but also by the recent nomination for the British Sports Book Awards 2009 for the Best New Writer title.

Regardless of how it goes, well done to Neil for bein shortlisted and it is the just reward for his perseverance.

In the coming days, I'll be putting up a list of my favourite football books from 2008. In the meantime, you can look here for all the books that I've reviewed earlier on.
