Soft cover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Paperback Edition. Paperback. Slight browning to edge of first pages. Slight indentation mark to corner front cover. The founder of Celtic Soccer Crew sets the record straight and his life straight in one gripping memoir. With 33 criminal convictions against him, plus a further 33 cases either dropped or found not guilty, he has been remanded nine times including one charge of attempted murder when he was aged just 18. He became rapidly embroiled in a life of violence and was in and out of prison just as many times as he was in and out of hospital. His was a life dedicated to football violence in the shape of the Celtic Soccer Crew. O'Kanes memoirs are about the extraordinary struggle of a gang of football hooligans to survive, despite discovering an unexpected enemy the indomitable Celtic support - a suppot that guarded its reputation and good name with a passion O'Kane hadn't reckoned with, even as a Celtic supporter himself. Now revealed for the first time are some of those outrageous antics for which the CSC firm are notorious. Combined with frankness and honesty, they give the reader a real insight into what turns a man into a career hooligan. Illustrated. 247 pp. (We carry a wide selection of titles in The Arts, Theology, History, Politics, Social and Physical Sciences. academic and scholarly books and Modern First Editions etc.).
