The book that's rocking golf.

Delivers a damning verdict on the Americans' behaviour at Brookline.

Caused a furore inside and outside the game.

Simmo may be a shockingly average amateur cricketer, but when it comes to self- deprecating wit and telling a good anecdote, he's as sprightly as Garry Sobers in his prime ... anecdotes and quirky characters hurtle down at us like yorkers bowled by a fast bowler that I'm not quite knowledgeable enough to name ... an entertaining read indeed

Michael writes about disaster, humiliation, rejection and ridicule - the hilarious truth

Brilliantly witty

It is wonderfully written - full of wit, gags, self-deprecating asides and a pure, unfettered understanding of a man's limitations - and it talks to all of us. You should buy it. You really should go out straight away and pick up a copy. It'll make you feel so much better

At last the work of genius that will finally bring the long-suffering cricket addict a measure of understanding in the world. A wonderful and very funny book

You read the wonderful Michael Simkins with a mixture of horror and delight

One of Britain's funniest writers

Extremely funny - whether or not you know your bails from your balls

One of the funniest sporting memoirs ever

Almost painfully funny

An all-too honest account of a playing career that just got better and better, despite threatening to go off the rails.

An extraordinary book.

Harrowing and brutally honest...a gripping story.

Brutally honest.

Less a football autobiography, more repentant confessional.
