Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Its 1989 and a surf-loving Aussie teenager flukes a dream move to an English footballing giant. Problem is, its never been his dream, and in the brutal big leagues he has a fight on his hands to ensure his laidback life doesnt turn into one giant nightmare. Before Harry Kewell, Mark Viduka and Tim Cahill became household names in English football, and once Craig Johnston retired, there was another Aussie name on every football fans lips. Rippa - Joey Rippa. This 19-year-old high school drop-out wants to be on the waves or smoking pot and strumming his guitar in his small Western Australian beach town, instead of being on a football pitch. But the round-ball game is where his real talent lies and when he has the match of his life for the State team against a travelling West Ham United side in a glamour friendly, hes offered a pro contract with the English First Division side. With the bills mounting in his fathers bar, his beloved uncle facing homelessness, and his band needing a new recording, he reluctantly signs and heads over to the UK. But the dream move turns sour the moment he lands when he discovers that The Hammers manager, Bobby Noll, has been sacked and with no one at the club having any idea who this blonde-stubbled Kim Wilde-lookalike is, hes farmed out to Middleby United, a struggling non-league provincial outfit. And in the most landlocked town in Britain, and with its howling wind, never-ending rain and permanent grey skies, he feels a million miles away from his beloved sand and sun lifestyle. Rippa is faced with isolation, loneliness, terrible cuisine and a dressing room and stadium of home fans who think of him, at best, as a novelty, and, at worst, a pathetic joke. Still mourning his beloved English-born football-loving mother (who vanished six years earlier), he finds an unlikely ally in the clubs female physio and tries to buckle down and make it in the brutal sink or swim world of English football. And along the way, he makes his family and hometown back in Australia proud, reminds West Ham that he actually exists, and get struggling Middleby back to the big time. Joey Rippa is set to hit the big time in football after an English Premier League manager spots him in a friendly match, but the surf-loving Aussie dude isn't so convinced about heading to England or being a pro footballer.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. With football madman George Best AWOL on the eve of sports' biggest occasion, BBC producers need another colourful pundit to fill the ratings void for their Mexico '86 coverage. Far down their list is forgotten ex-England footballer Sam 'Rolls' Royce. Along with being a womanising drunkard who all the tabloids used to fawn over, the only box he ticks is that he's been AWOL in Acapulco for the last decade and they can save themselves a flight.Out of practice with having a job, or even feeding and clothing himself - never mind appearing in front of 10 million viewers - Royce's football analysis is a drunken car-crash. And it gets worse when he befriends the head of Mexico's largest cartel and has access to the purest cocaine. Back in the limelight, all his enemies come out the woodwork but with his far-off-the-script football analysis, the Great British Public fall in love with him all over again.Royce gets to see FIFA and the cartel's match-fixing and corruption up-close and is offered the world on a platter. He is faced with the choice - to save himself or save The Beautiful Game. A washed up ex-footballer becomes a 1986 World Cup BBC pundit and takes on FIFA and the cartel, and attempts to save the world game. This item is printed on demand.

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Joey Rippa is one of the most naturally gifted footballers Englands Second Division has ever seen. Hes also one of the least interested in that fact.When Plymouth Argyles pre-season tour brings him back to Australia, Rippa arrives late, sunburnt, and carrying an impressive holiday paunch. His long-suffering manager Bobby Noll - the man who discovered him surfing a wave in Western Australia and somehow turned him into Plymouths Player of the Year - is not impressed.Back in England, Rippa is juggling the demands of a new season, an unexpected international call-up, a backpackers hostel full of 52 nationalities, an underground lawn bowls operation of questionable legality, and the arrival of Ned Buckley, a younger, fitter, more dedicated Australian who threatens to take everything Rippa has worked so hard to almost care about.Young Pilgrim is the second book in P.J. Lavertys RIPPA! series; a comedy about football, freedom, and a young man who would rather be anywhere else, doing almost anything else, and is somehow brilliant at the one thing he cant escape. Joey Rippa is one of England's most gifted footballers and one of the least interested. A comedy about a sun-loving Australian in professional football, an underground lawn bowls racket, and a rival who's annoyingly better at everything. This item is printed on demand.
