- Analyses the decline of ‘Messiah’ Bob Stokoe and the long-lasting fallout from the club’s lost opportunity to appoint former son Brian Clough
- Charts the struggle and failure of Jimmy Adamson to satisfy the expectations of a fanatical fan base
- Includes tales of the club’s wonderfully wacky searches for a ‘big name’ manager and proven striker
- Spotlights a plethora of North East connections, interweaving a bountiful blend of characters and subjects (clubs, managers, players, sport, popular culture and politics)
