Call all the chapters after characters from the original -
Unhygienix - the stink from the FAI
Getafix - the Athlone Town saga
Cacofonix - why won't anyone listen to Roddy?
I'll leave the rest to yourself.

Why did I ever buy a season ticket to see this lot!

A Tale of Two Cities, Two Towns, a Pair of Rovers and a Couple of Uniteds

The good, the bet and the ugly

How many copies of Just Follow the Floodlights have been sold Brian, and how does that compare with what you expected in advance ?

Not sure that'll fit on the cover

Out of our league.

Just Follow The Floodlights sold around 2,000 copies Nigel. I'd hope to sell 1,000 + with this if its self published. If a publisher involved , maybe more.

Delighted to hear that Brian, as I'm sure EatYerGreens is!

That's a decent amount Brian - great work. I hope the publisher was pleased, as it'll help the case for more LOI books in future.

I wonder what's been the best selling LOI book in recent years - Who Stole Our Game ?

To be honest the publisher was delighted at first and went for a reprint but then I think overstretched with a 2nd reprint and he was left with a couple of hundred copies and became a miserable *******! Didn't seem to care about the thousands of euros he made on the book, just the 100/200 left.
I done most of the promotion and made small money on each copy.
Best selling LOI book? Well it's not a book called Gods & Mortals by Paul Keane but it's certainly one of the best. Tells the story of LOI clubs taking on big European clubs in the European Cup (Limerick v Real Madrid, Waterford v Man Utd etc) well worth a look.
