So, you’ll know already that the Arseblog book – So Paddy Got Up – is in the offing.
Today, I’m delighted to announce details of the contributors to the book and of the official launch which will take place in London on Dec 7th. Everyone is very welcome but to get an idea of numbers I’ve added it as a Facebook event here.
If you’re not on Facebook, please indicate if you would like to come on the poll at the bottom of this post. We have to get a rough idea of how many books to have available on the night, the rest will be available to purchase online via the Arseblog store.
I should point out at this stage that this is a very limited edition hardback book made to extremely high standards in terms of cover finish and overall design. The perfect Christmas present for the Arsenal fan in your life
Here’s the contributor list, in no particular order except for me first because I can, with a link to their respective online presences (if they have one).
Andrew Mangan (Arseblog) – Amy Lawrence (Guardian/Observer) – Tim Stillman (Vital Arsenal) – Sian Ranscombe (From a girl who loves the Gunners) – Tim Clark (Arse2Mouse) – Kieron O’Connor (Swiss Ramble) – Stuart Stratford (A Cultured Left Foot) – David Faber (Goonerholic) – Michael Cox (Zonal Marking) – Leanne Hurley (Lady Arse) – Julian Harris (Gingers4Limpar) – Nick Ames (Arsenal.com) – Andrew Allen (The Arsenal Collective) – James McNicholas (Gunnerblog) – Paolo Bandini (Guardian) – Jim Haryott (East Lower) – Tim Barkwill – Chris Harris (Arsenal.com) – Tom Clark (Arseblog) – Tim Payton (AST) – Nigel Brown (Humans Invent) – Jake Morris (Goodplaya) – John Cross (The Mirror) – Tim Bostelle (7amkickoff) – Jonathan Swan – Philippe Auclair (France Football)
What they’ve written about will remain under wraps until you get your hands on the book. Suffice to say it covers everything from club’s humble origins to where it finds itself now, from great players to great managers, from tactics to fans to stadia to kits, amongst many other things.
The launch will be held in The Tollington, Hornsey Road, on December 7th at 7pm – the price of the book is £20.
