He was like a kid at Christmas!
Seriously, he used to pay top dollar for some teams
Would be interested to know your mates name...I might know of him!

When I did the book launch in Rome (they love Subbuteo in Italy), it was an amazing experience...I did an interview on Italian TV, did a Q and A session and I had people queuing up to have their books signed ..... a celeb in Rome!!! If you or anyone here would like a copy, I can let you have a signed copy for a reduced price as QPR fans. Just let me know and I can sort it. Or you can get it on ITunes if you want!!!!
The bit in the review about your grammer did make me chuckle though
PS When I started this thread I never thought it would get a reply let alone give you the opportunity to sell some more books, I think I'll have to PM you to discuss my commission"Steve, do you think 25k is a good option when there are indications that within four years, new stadiums on average have increased attendances of 60%?
For us that would mean around 29k."

this one i think...looks a good book.
See your book is still for sale on Amazon TW...some good reviews, some bad reviews but this one made me laugh :-)
"It was with a sense of real eagerness that I bought and began reading this book. I had hoped for an insight into the mind behind the world's greatest football game. How wrong I was. What we have here is a poorly written, disjointed account of flash cars, womanising, trips on the QE2 and other general tittle tattle, written by the son of the game's inventor. The use of language and sentence structure are quite dreadful in places. Mr Adolph's expensive public school education (of which he has much to say) clearly did not include basic grammar, and the book's publishers should look closely at their editorial and proof-reading staff.
Even the most avid Subbuteo fan will be disappointed by this lacklustre affair. Save your money, don't buy this book. Indeed, as Mr Adolph is at great pains to point out throughout, his entire life has been subsidised by Subbuteo; he surely doesn't need our money to help him sustain that lifestyle."
Just goes to show you cant please everyone :-)
Great start to the day, cheers Vblock.
