Description
Most things in life that make you miserable you can change. But you can't change your football team. In his brilliant first book, Match of the Day 2 presenter and lifelong West Bromwich Albion fan Adrian Chiles asks why we feel the way we do about our teams and go to such great - almost bizarre - lengths to follow them.
Seeking an answer to the oft-chanted question 'Who are you?', Adrian meets the fan who's missed only five games since the Second World War; the woman who has never seen her side concede a goal because she always covers her eyes; and the octogenarian who, relegated or promoted, weaves a rug to celebrate.
The story, just like supporting a football team, is by turns hilarious, heartwarming and heartbreaking.

Media Reviews
In his hilarious new book Adrian admits he thinks about his team more often than sex. * DAILY MIRROR *
endearing... no league winning histrionics, but plenty of nutty fans and tragic defeats. * ZOO *
this is a very funny book peppered with Chiles's trademark '2 Good 2 Bad * wit' *
