About this listen
Brought to you by Penguin.
It doesn't really matter who you support. Football is a cruel, cruel game. All of us fans have had moments of shock, disappointment, and feeling like a right knobhead. We want our teams to play like winners who’ll fight for the badge to their last breath. More often, there's so many clowns on the pitch we think the circus is in town. We've endured abject surrenders in the pissing down rain, watched multi-millionaire managers lose the plot, and signed players who couldn't pass a parcel, all to the sound of Michael Owen's 'expert' analysis. Season after bloody season. It stings so much your team might as well be sponsored by Dettol. Why do we do it to ourselves?
There’s a lot to love I guess. Nothing will ever emulate the high that a major win or seeing your team lift a trophy brings. Take Manchester United winning the treble: footballing perfection. And nothing else will ever come close. Life doesn’t get any better than that.
As I talk you through everything from transfers to trophies to touchline tantrums, join me as I give my definitive take on football. There's a lot to get through, so take my hand like an over-eager mascot and walk with me out of the tunnel into the glaring floodlights of what it means to be a fan…
…and how to survive it.

Story
Lucas knows the perfect night entails just three things: video games, wine, and pad thai. Peanuts are a must! Other people? Not so much. Why complicate things when he’s happy alone? Then one day the apartment board, a vexing trio of authority, rings his doorbell. And Lucas’s solitude takes a startling hike. They demand to see his frying pan. Someone left one next to the recycling room overnight, and instead of removing the errant object, as Lucas suggests, they insist on finding the guilty party. But their plan backfires. Colossally.

In this award-winning Audible Studios production, Trevor Noah tells his wild coming-of-age tale during the twilight of apartheid in South Africa. It’s a story that begins with his mother throwing him from a moving van to save him from a potentially fatal dispute with gangsters, then follows the budding comedian’s path to self-discovery through episodes both poignant and comical.

Story
Traumatized by the bombing of Dresden at the time he had been imprisoned, Pilgrim drifts through all events and history, sometimes deeply implicated, sometimes a witness. He is surrounded by Vonnegut's usual large cast of continuing characters (notably here the hack science fiction writer Kilgore Trout and the alien Tralfamadorians, who oversee his life and remind him constantly that there is no causation, no order, no motive to existence).

Story
Separated by 10 years, 3,000 miles, and the unrelenting stresses of adulthood, best friends Janet and Serena plan a 40th birthday girls’ trip to reconnect. But after a massive crash, they’re the only survivors to wash ashore on an uncharted Caribbean Island. Armed with only the clothes on their backs and zero survival skills, they fight to overcome hunger, thirst, deadly wildlife—and most terrifyingly—decades of accrued resentment. Can they find their way home, or will they kill each other first?

Story
A bad best man’s speech can ruin a wedding. Why do we plan every detail of a perfect day and then give the groom’s idiot best friend five minutes of total power? Enter Nate (Glen Powell), a speechwriter-for-hire who helps people write incredible best man speeches. To keep the best man from embarrassing himself (and the newlyweds), Nate uses his list of don’ts: Don’t mention the exes, don’t be rated R, and don’t bum everyone out. Nate’s system never fails. That is, until he meets Dan (Nicholas Braun).

Goldbridge at his finest
Very entertaining from beginning to end. As Goldbridge explains his football origins, how he fell in love with the sport and Manchester United. Also, classically, getting little digs in at rival clubs along the way.

Gold by Goldbridge
Get in - a laugh out loud ride of Football: the beautiful game through the eyes of Mark Goldbridge. The United Stand YouTube channel was my first introduction to Mark Goldbridge’s comedy gold sense of humour. This humour is translated into this brilliant book, written and read by Mark. For all football fans this is a must read. And for all Manchester United fans who know this sleeping giant of a club is about to we woken.

Very good
Well worth a listen. Humorous and interesting for all football/soccer fans. Just don’t let young children listen to it as Goldbridge uses some adult language.

Oh, united and will stand
I like how he blended multiple topics and connected them in weird unique ways at times the piecing made it hard to focus and keep track of exactly what we were trying to talk about in some chapters but overall I think it’s a very good book and has some overall good messages in it not just for football fans, but any reader

What a waste of a credit
As I like the watch along and some of his daily shows I thought his book would be funny and entertaining. It was not, it is dull and drab and his humor must make himself laugh cause it sure didn’t make me laugh. Again really disappointed, he should stick to running a fan channel. I can see how his self aggrandizement killed his best show on that’s football and why Ben Foster doesn’t come on any more. Guess I will stick to RD sports, Webby and ONiel and the Manchester United Agenda.
