He's been writing a new book, and since he's been a seriously excellent long-time supporter of Arseweb (getting the site arguably its best-ever mentions, in the Guardian and on BBC 2) we agreed to plug it for him. We'd have done it anyway, for reciprocal back-scratching reasons, but as it turns out it's a bloody excellent little volume.

Va Va Voom, just out, is subtitled A Fan's Diary of Arsenal's Invincible Season. And that's what it is. The handy-sized hard-backed volume chronicles the events of last season from the perspective of a true Arsenal fan, who just happens to be editor of a national newspaper (well, up until the day before the last match of the season he does). It's funny, honest, beautifully presented, and to be frank I can't think of a better tribute than to say it's a bit like reading Arseweb (very much, at times, Piers old boy ;> ). No, really, it's a must. There are going to be a lot of long and dry records of last season, but if you want a fun readable one, this is the absolute business.

And...

...wait for it...

..it contains 100% guaranteed genuine photographs of Arsenal pissing all over the opposition.

(I know, cos like Piers and like a lot of you reading this, I was there) Please use this link (or the one above) to buy the book from Amazon, cos Arseweb will get a little kickback. See also our bookshop page for more Arsenal books, and the videos page which includes the 2003-04 season review, a nice companion to Piers book. I'm going to get them both and devour them in tandem.
