CRAIG BELLAMY is one of those footballers you can't ignore.If he plays for your team,you love him.If he doesn't . . . Everyone thinks they know Bellamy.Pace and passion.A handful for defenders. Scoring goals and winding up opponents. Winning friends - and making enemies.Blessed with a natural talent,he has enjoyed a colourful career at a host of top clubs.The proud Welshman is one of the top ten appearance makers for his country.But his rise to the top of the game wasn't easy.It could have all been so different. He came from a loving family but temptations lay in his way.Follow the crowd or follow a dream? Join your mates in a gang on the streets or try to make it as a pro? It was a choice between the two. Bellamy chose football and became a rebel with a cause.He quickly climbed the ladder and shared dressing rooms with some of the biggest stars in football - from Ryan Giggs to Steven Gerrard.His burning desire to succeed made him a winner on the pitch,but that same passion also got him into trouble.There were famous bust-ups with John Arne Riise and Alan Shearer,not to mention rows with Graeme Souness,Rafa Benitez and Roberto Mancini.Away from the spotlight,there is a different side to Bellamy.His earnings from this book will be going to the Craig Bellamy Foundation,a charity which offers children in Sierra Leone the chance to fulfil their sporting potential.He is a devoted dad and was brokenhearted at the tragic and shocking death of his close friend Gary Speed.'Craig Bellamy: GoodFella' uncovers the real man behind the player and reveals the untold stories of a life inside football's fast lane.Like Bellamy himself,it doesn't hold back.

On 7 April 2002 West Bromwich Albion won promotion to the Premiership after 16 long years in the wilderness of the Nationwide League.It was a joyous and emotional day for anyone connected with the 'Baggies',a day that will hopefully mark the return of happier times to this proud and famous football club.There have been so many great times in the club's 124-yearhistory.Five FA Cup finals and founder members of the Football League in the late 19th century; the unique FA Cupand promotion 'double' in 1931; Ronnie Allen's exhilaratingside of the 50's; Jeff Astle and Tony Brown in the glorious60's; and the swashbuckling 70's side of Big Ron and the Three Degrees.

Throughout their turbulent history,Chelsea have been surrounded by a glamour that other clubs with many more trophies in the boardroom might envy.The explanation is surely to be found in the galaxy of gifted, colourful players who have represented the Blues, never quite achieving the consistency that brings sustained success,but delighting the fans with their virtuosity and making vital contributions to many famous victories.Since the 1960/61 season - when Jimmy Greaves scored 41 League goals before leaving Stamford Bridge for Italy - more than 200 players have appeared for Chelsea in first team matches.Ron Harris and Peter Bonetti gave loyal and steadfast service for nearly twenty years,tasting triumph under Tommy Docherty and Dave Sexton and then playing their part in the rebuilding of the club during the difficult years that followed.Others,like Peter Osgood,John Hollins and Charlie Cooke, were key figures for a decade,while some,such as Alan Hudson and Ray Wilkins,David Speedie and Pat Nevin,moved on after shorter spells as the idols of the terraces. There have been folk-heroes, adored for their defiance,and diligent journeymen,who have remained largely unappreciated; and, inevitably,there have been those whose appearance on the Stamford Bridge stage has been brief and unhappy.From Bobby Tambling to Kerry Dixon,Frank Blunstone to Dennis Wise,Peter Sillett to Andy Townsend,all are recalled in 'CHELSEA - Player by Player', an affectionate portrait of the men who have worn the club's colours during 33 seasons of dramatically shifting fortunes.

It all started on a rainswept afternoon in December.London solicitor Peter Jackson and his office junior,Winston Waites,stared through the steamed-up windows at the rush-hour bustle,wishing the summer months were still with them.Jackson lamented for the days he sweated behind the stumps during Little Dow's one-day campaigns.Winston was fond of cricket too,turning out for Creek whenever the opposite sex and hangovers allowed.That cold pre-Christmas night a challenge was made,the wicket-keeper's gloves were thrown down and the following June,Winston navigated his side from the decaying streets of East London through the twisty lanes of Buckinghamshire where nestled Little Dow.The air filled with cockney rhyming slang and pleasurable prittle-prattlings as the two sides mingled before the game.But enough of the old 'rabbit' me old china,your presence is required at Lord Smythe's meadow. . . Richard Digance was born in East London on the same day and in the same hospital as John Lever,the Essex and England bowler,although he cannot recall any cricketing conversations with the left-hander that day; in fact it took many years for Digance to realise that his nursery mate was left-handed.The two have still not been introduced,mainly because Digance is reluctant to meet anybody who surpasses his own skills. Owing to this and the quiet life he leads in Saffron Walden,and even though he is an accomplished broadcaster on Capitol Radio (then 1983),a fine musician and the author of four books,he has not met W.G. Grace (a cricketing legend),Chas and Dave (exponents of obscure cockney rhyme),nor top writer Sir Arthur Conan Doyle.His favourite colour is green and he hopes to be a model when he grows up.

Prefabulous Animiles are unique James Reeves creations,atonce ludicrous and lovable,incredible and insane.His poems about them have been widely hailed,read aloud,learned by heart, imitated, anthologised and set to music.The Osc,the forty-legged Snyke,the Amperzand,the Blether and the rest,first emerged from their strange habitats nearly twenty years ago,and have been in continuous demand ever since.Andno wonder! Only last year (then 1975) Margery Fisher (in The Sunday Times) referred to 'those splendid Prefabulous Animiles who rejoice in some of the best made-up names thatever delighted children'. What less could Reeves and Ardizzone do,in the interests of science as well as art and poetry,than to delve once more into the archives of pre-historic biology and bring forth,in 'More Prefabulous Animiles',a new,intriguing and sometimes disquieting batch of these strange creatures? Once again verbal dexterity and humour are matched by the invention and ingenuity of the ideal artist. Edward Jeffrey Irving Ardizzone,1900-1979, worked as EdwardArdizzone.Born in Haiphong,China,the son of an employee of the Eastern Telegraph Company,the eldest of five children.Helived in the Far East until he was five and then moved withhis family to England. Ardizzone lived in Ipswich until he was 14,'and it was here',he wrote,'that I learnt to know and love the little coastal steamers that I have drawn so often in the TIM books.' He attended evening classes in life drawing given by Bernard Meninsky at Westminster School of Art,while employed as a statistical clerk in London (1916-26).He worked freelance as an illustrator from1926,achieving widespread recognition with his first children's book 'Little Tim and the Brave Sea Captain (1936) the first of the famous TIM books.Served in the Royal Artillery (1939-40);Official War Artist (1940-45), noted for his war diaries.Taught illustration at CamberwellSchool of Art (1948-52). Worked for UNESCO in India (1952-53).Part-time tutor at the Royal College of Art School of Etching (1953-61). Ardizzone worked in watercolour,pen and ink,pencil and lithograph as a painter,printmaker,greetings card designer and illustrator of over 170 books,many of them his own.He was awarded the Kate Greenaway Medal (1956) for 'Tim All Alone' and the Carnegie Medal (1955) and Hans Christian Andersen Medal (1956) with 'The Little Bookroom'.He particularly enjoyed illustrating poetry.He worked mainly from memory, early developing a freely drawn and unmistakable style that changed very little during the course of his long career.He acknowledged the influence of Bernard Meninsky on his work,and also the 19thC draughtsmenDaumier,Dore and Caldecott.His brother-in-law Gabriel Whiteconsidered 'perhaps no artist since Randolph Caldecott has captured so easily the qualities essential in successful illustration for a child.Ardizzone's are bold and clear andtell the tale in the simplest lines and colours.Ardizzone was awarded the CBE (UK honour) in 1971.In 1973,a retrospective of his work was held at the V & A Museum in London.

Frank McLintock's passion and deep knowledge of football have kept him in the game for over 45 years.His 1964 British record move to Arsenal heralded the beginning of the most successful period of his career,although at the time his new club were languishing in the wilderness,having failed to win any silverware for many seasons.His appointment as Arsenal captain marked a turning point for both club and man,as his determination to succeed swept through Highbury.In 1970 he led the Gunners to a famous Fairs Cup victory over Anderlecht and the following season he dramatically broke his Wembley hoodoo when he completed the second part of an historic League and FA Cup double. Leaving Arsenal in controversial circumstances,he joined QPR for four very successful years.When his playing career ended,he moved into management before becoming a football agent.His insights into this sometimes shady world are fascinating and he talks frankly about his involvement in the scandal that surrounded Teddy Sheringham's transfer from Forest to Spurs. Retaining a high profile through regular appearances on Sky,Frank McLintock remains one of the game's most popular characters and storytellers,and he brings his wonderful football career to life with infectious enthusiasm.
