It's 10 years since the first one, so I've written another book on the language of football. This one goes deep. EXTRA TIME BECKONS, PENALTIES LOOM: How to Use (and Abuse) The Language of Football, is out in September via @headlinePG! I absolutely loved writing it. Pre-order ⤵️

Katy’s book Delicacy is absolutely fantastic, a really important piece of writing. This piece in today’s Observer affected me in the same way as the book

Out Sept 12, A Pub for all Seasons is my yearlong journey around the UK to discover how pubs change seasonally - if you want to know what Henry Jeffreys' book is full of swearing and Pete Brown think of it you can see here amazon.co.uk/Pub-All-Season… it’ll be in indie book shops as well too (and audio)

Start of August and I can now say A Pub for all Seasons is out ‘next month’, you can order it here amazon.co.uk/Pub-All-Season… but do remember that indie book shops will have it as well

Does language evolve? Yes, it does. Will it ever be acceptable for a football commentator to call a shot that bounces before it goes in 'a screamer'? No, it will not. Adam Hurrey's #ExtraTimeBeckons is almost here⚽ Pre-order today! geni.us/ExtraTimeBecko…
