    New LOI book

    Hi

    I am currently putting together a new LOI book (sort of a follow-up to Just Follow The Floodlights) which will include a story (or stories) from fans of each current League of Ireland team (and some that are gone) At the moment I'm only missing Athlone Town from the current league, but if there are any fans of teams like Monaghan United, St James Gate, Kildare County etc that would like to put their own memories of their club , be it a favourite season, game, european adventure, fight with owners, cult player, or such then I'd be delighted to hear from you.
    Hopefully the book will come out in time for the end of league season or Christmas. At present I'm looking for a good name to wow the publishers and when it's out I'm hoping some clubs will let me launch the book .
    Included in the book is the section "Are You Calling Me A Cult" which will have one cult hero from each club. Tough task. But hopefully we'll get the right guy and contact him to give his own view!
    Any input from those wishing to help out is always taken on board.

    Kind Regards
    Brian

    Hey Brian, I'm sure many here will be looking forward to your new book. Some names for your book:

    Still Following The Floodlights
    Diary of a Problem Child
    Through The Turnstiles

    Or you could go with this beauty, The League of Ireland - It's not that bleak!

    Yeah, that's the stand out for me. Although it may mean little to those outside the league.

    It's amazing what comes to you over breakfast. I remember seeing there is a new Diary Of A Wimpy Kid movie coming out and it must have stuck in my head.

    Bit of a cheesy title. No need to milk the FAI for joke titles, surely you can cup up with something a little bit butter than that.

    I like that one! Be a good one for a club specific book maybe though.
