Thank God for FOOTBALL!

Who would have thought it as a diehard and frustrated Ipswich Town fan this season but according to a new book Thank God for FOOTBALL! thats exactly what we should do. Written by Peter Lupson and with a forward by John Motson, the book highlights the fact that nearly a third of clubs that have played in the FA Premier League have their origins in the church. From Aston Villa to Spurs, the book provides a fascinating account of the earliest days of the game, the churches behind the clubs and some of the leading lights who made it possible. Priced at 9.99, TGFF can be ordered from St Marys Shop.
