Synopsis
Based on years of research by its two authors, Fit and Proper details the history of the boardroom of Sheffield United Football Club, focusing particularly on the foibles of the men who over three decades from 1980 tried, and largely failed, to turn the 'Blades' into a profitable business and a successful club.

About the Author
Matthew Bell is a mechanical engineer by trade but spends every spare moment writing about Sheffield United. He has edited the United fanzine, 'Flashing Blade' for over twenty years and has written a weekly column in the Green 'Un since 1993. He was co-editor of the imaginatively titled books, 'Blades Tales' and 'Blades Tales 2' and has written articles for 4-4-2 magazine and the 2003 Sheffield United v Arsenal FA Cup semi-final programme. Despite all this, he says that United's results are less important than the quality of his pre-match pint. Dr. Gary Armstrong is a Reader in the School of Sport and Education, Brunel University, London. He previously lectured in Criminology at the University of Westminster and the University of Reading. His research into sports-related matters has produced various publications including: Football Hooligans: Knowing the Score, Blade Runners: Lives in Football, and Sheffield United FC: The Biography.
