If you enjoy reading about Liverpool then this will occupy a few hours and stimulate your memory of those glory nights at Anfield and the beer fuelled European trips that followed them. I`m a season ticket holder, love to watch Liverpool and love to read about them too. If you like thriller stories then try Soft Target by Conrad Jones, football and terrorism set in Liverpool, its shocking. Back to this one though,Seven European Cup finals. Seven fans. Seven amazing adventures following the team they love. This book celebrates the achievements of Liverpool FC in Europe, and in particular a love affair with Old Big Ears - the European Cup. It's an ongoing affair that began with the legendary and, in those days, unprecedented exodus of 30,000 Liverpool fans to Rome in 1977, has taken in the glories of Paris and Istanbul, endured the horror of Brussels, and still burns as brightly today with Athens 2007, just the latest staging post of Liverpool's trans-European express. Above all, Here We Go Gathering Cups In May tells of the bond between a club and its fans: the lengths those fans will go to in order to be there at the final to cheer on their team, vivid accounts of what happened along the way, their escapades in some of Europe's iconic capitals, and their recollections of those historic nights - nights of glory and, sometimes, nights of tragedy.

good as it gets

This is about as good as a footy book gets - players, managers and directors come and go, but the fanatical supporters live lives through their alliegance to one football team.
In these pages the message reads loud and clear: I love football, I love Liverpool and I love having a laugh
Brilliant

Brings back the memories

Well what stories and what memories. I was there at all seven and hope to live long enough to see seven more. The book covers all aspects of being a true Red. A little crazy, a little ingenious and a whole lot of passion.

This is a fantastic book. It's been overdue, a brilliant account by 7 genuine fans who make you feel as if you were there with the boys in red at some of the greatest moments in Liverpool's history.
