Robin Friday was a real-life footballer bent on self-destruction. He was always in trouble with the referee, was in and out of prison, and had a drug habit. But Friday was also a talented football player who would entertain the crowd and knock policemen's helmets off when he scored. This book aims to provide an appreciation of Robin Friday.
