Book Description: We all like to delve into the minds and lives of our beloved celebrity figures, but this fascinating read is not celebrity gossip, it comes straight from the horse’s mouth to reveal all you ever wanted to know about celebrities’ favourite football teams and players.
With a fitting Foreword by footballing legend Sir Alex Ferguson CBE, this book is a must-read for football fans who wish to know which celebrity is a fellow aficionado of their club, or perhaps a supporter of ‘the enemy’, as well as for the rest of the population, who just love to know what makes our celebrities tick.
And it is also a must-buy, as all royalties from the sale of this book will be donated to The Willow Foundation, a charity set up by the legendary Bob Wilson and his wife Megs in 1999 to enable seriously ill young adults to enjoy the treat of a ‘Special Day’ with family and friends.

About the Author: Chris Cowlin has compiled many quiz books and has raised thousands of pounds for various charities with the sales of his books. He has compiled books on football (various clubs), cricket, the Carry On films and television.
