Pride and Passion in Bury tells the story of my life growing up in a great little town at a great time.

Beginning with life as one of a family of ten, living on a large council estate, the friendships formed, and the many comical events that occurred that still tickle me.

Being approached by Manchester City FC, as a fifteen year old school boy. Eventually having to accept failure, but also going on to enjoy playing the beautiful game in semi-pro and amateur form.

Reaching an age when life's dilemmas were asking questions that the answers to proved elusive to me - religion, marriage and health among them. The shared events that go hand in hand with family life.

The book for the most part portrays a lad enjoying life to the full, at a time when life seemed simpler. Like any life portrayed at length it includes some sad times, which if anything makes the good times even better. There will be many situations you will immediately relate to, leaving you to wonder if you would have taken the same course.
