Review:
'Called, straightforwardly, FOOTBALLERS' HAIRCUTS, Cris Freddi's illustrated history proves itself to be a fine tome of great follicle learning, with some remarkable examples of manes to have featured in British football over the years ranging from the plain ridiculous (hello, Chris Waddle) to the mightily impressive (yo, the Afro-sporting George Berry, late of Stoke and Wolves).' THE SCOTSMAN 23/8/03 'What horrors lurk within FOOTBALLERS HAIRCUTS. Legends such as Charlton, Keegan, Beckham and Venison rub mullets, mohicans, perms and comb-overs with forgotten gems such as Noel Brotherston (poodle tails above each ear), Robert Bruce (Eddie Munster), Alan Biley (Rod Stewart meets Toyah Wilcox) and Rodney Fern (a bit of everything). Terrifying, hilarious, horrible and brilliant. If your hairdresser has a copy, run a mile.' TIME OUT 20/8/03 '... this pocket-sized book offers the chance to relive some of the worst horrors, and chart the changing styles, if you can call them that... enjoyable compendium of follicular atrocities.' FOUR FOUR TWO (Nov '03) 'It won't win the Booker but still a hoot and its size is stocking-friendly. All the usual comb-deviants represented with a foreword provided by mullet maestro Chris Waddle.' THE SCOTSMAN (20/12/03)
