Gary Edwards, that well known face of Kippax has just finished his book on Leeds United. Entitled "Paint it White" It is an anecdotal sideways look at the life of the man who is reputedly Leeds No.1 fan, his travels around the globe in support of his favourite team and some of the scrapes, japes and near misses during his time in the hot seat! You can get his latest offering from most good bookshops, but be warned - you'll split your sides laughing at some of his stories!
Well, that's the plug Gaz. where's my free copy?!!
