Peter Ridsdale – United We Fall – SIGNED First Edition 2007
£65.00
First edition, first printing. Published by Macmillan in London, 2007. This is a fine copy. The dust wrapper is without wear aside from some very slight bumping at the top edge. It has not been price clipped. The author’s signature is present, inscribed with ‘Best wishes’ on the full title page in blue ink. The text blocks are clean and the boards immaculate. This is a fine copy.
United We Fall is the unique story of life inside football, told from behind the scenes of one of Britain’s most legendary clubs Leeds United. It is also the true story of the childhood fan who became chairman of his Premiership team. Peter Ridsdale, one of the game’s most controversial and colourful figures, oversaw the most dramatic and talked-about period in Leeds United’s history. In this compelling account, he writes about how the dream spectacularly unravelled when the club went into financial meltdown. It is a fall from grace which speaks volumes for the politicking, pressures, successes and failures within the professional game today.
