Here are all the follicular catastrophes that have graced the heads of prevailing football generations in their full glory.With over 80 photographs, the pictures are complimented with fascinating player anecdotes and incredible football tales. From pre-war pudding bowls to the pampered perms of the Premiership, they're all here: the awesome Afros, dodgy dye jobs, blush-worthy bleaches, and the absurd extensions; the highlights, the lowlights, and not forgetting, of course, the ultimate footballers' haircut, the magnificent mullet.

About the Author:
Cris Freddi, author of THE GUINNESS BOOK OF FOOTBALL BLUNDERS and a regular contributor to the football magazine WHEN SATURDAY COMES.
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)
