Got; Not Got: Coventry City by Derek Hammond
Got, Not Got: The Lost World of Coventry City is an Aladdin's cave of memories and memorabilia, guaranteed to whisk you back to Highfield Road's fondly remembered 'Golden Age' of mud and magic - as well as a Sky Blues-mad childhood of miniature tabletop games and imaginary, comic-fuelled worlds. The book recalls a more innocent era of football, lingering longingly over relics from the good old days - Sky Blues stickers and petrol freebies, league ladders, big-match programmes and much more - revisiting lost football culture, treasures and pleasures that are 100 per cent Coventry City. If you were a Junior Sky Blue, one of the army of obsessive soccer kids at any time from the Jimmy Hill revolution to the early days of the Premier League, then this is the book to recall the mavericks - Carr, Regis and Dublin, Mortimer, Hutchison and Ogrizovic - and the marvels of the Lost World of Football.
Derek Hammond has written about football and music for FourFourTwo, club programmes, mirror.co.uk and the NME. Gary Silke is editor of The Fox, one of the original and oldest football fanzines still in existence. The pair have provided football cards for The Onion Bag, BBC1's Match of the Seventies/Eighties and the National Football Museum.
