  The untold story of the most contested fixture in world football 
  ‘A must read.’ Henry Winter 
  'Superb.' Daniel Taylor 
  Liverpool and Manchester. Two gloriously independent-minded, eclectic, culturally vibrant places. Yet the inhabitants dislike each other with a passion that is visceral. It is a divide that spans generations, across class, gender and ethnicity. And it has grown over the years, largely driven by one thing: football. 
  The dark, malignant loathing shared by the followers of Liverpool and Manchester United has seeped into every aspect of life in the two cities. Football is not a barometer of disdain, as it is in places like Glasgow or Istanbul or Moscow. In northwest England, it is the engine of animosity. 
  How did it come to this? Why did things turn so nasty? And what does it say about the two cities in which the clubs are based? 
  Written by a Scouser and a Manc in a rare collaboration, Red on Red addresses the divide by talking to those involved in ten seminal football matches. It speaks to the characters who patrolled and provoked the rivalry: Alex Ferguson, Kenny Dalglish, Steven Gerrard and Gary Neville, among many others. Also questioned are the fans, the administrators, the referees, the police, and politicians. And through each legendary game, its authors tell the full story of the most extraordinary division not just in football, but in modern Britain. 
  This is Red on Red, a rivalry like no other. 
  Phil McNulty's Red on Red is a top pick for anyone interested in the sociology of sports, particularly the history of 20th century soccer. The book explores the best and worst moments of the rivalry, providing a comprehensive understanding of its impact on the cities of Liverpool and Manchester. 
  For fans of Zlatan Ibrahimovic (Adrenaline), Jonathan Wilson (The Barcelona Legacy), Gary Neville (The People's Game), Rhys Richards (Blood on the Crossbar), and Shareef Abdallah (The King Takes Over).

  ‘The Last Is Now the First’ is the inspiring true story of Donnell Rawls, a young man from Fayetteville, North Carolina, who rose from modest beginnings to make history as a wrestling champion at every level. His journey is one of faith, perseverance, and unshakable determination in the face of personal tragedy and constant doubt. From his earliest days, Donnell was told he was too small to succeed in sports. Wrestling changed that. On the mat, he discovered a place where discipline and heart mattered more than size. Guided by family, mentors, and an unyielding belief in God, he transformed losses into lessons and setbacks into motivation. His achievements include becoming the first state champion at E.E. Smith High School, winning a national title at Winston-Salem State, and making history again as Appalachian State’s first NCAA Division I All-American. Yet his story goes beyond victories. It is about the strength of family, the power of friendship, and the lessons learned from both heartbreak and success. Through hard work, resilience, and faith, Donnell proved that being overlooked does not determine one’s future. ‘The Last Is Now the First’ is more than a sports memoir. It is a powerful reflection of character, courage, and the belief that no matter how you start, you can finish as a champion.

  In his memoir Barry Silkman tells the incredible story of his career from player to agent with colourful anecdotes of all the characters he encountered along the way, along with some touching, personal recollections of his life so far. Silkman boasts an impressive playing career which lasted 16 years, playing for 11 different clubs including Manchester City. A gifted and skilful player, he was your archetypal Cockney, with Romany gypsy appearance with a shock of black curly hair, tan and socks rolled around his ankles. He always felt he had an eye for a good player and when a friend was without a club, he brokered a deal to get him a 2-year contract – soon all the player’s friends started calling Silks, and his life as a football agent began. He went on to become one of the 10 most influential agents in football (Metro 2013) representing Jaap Stam, Yakubu, Patrik Berger, Soucek (West Ham) and organised Zidane to join Newcastle. Silk’s talents transferred across to the showbiz industry where he organised artists and tours in a fascinating post-playing career. Some of the names he worked with were Mickie Most, David Gest, Rod Stewart. Kim Wilde, Phil Collins, and Dionne Warwick.
