Forfatteren, Paul Hodgson, har gjennomgått utallige utfordringer, inkludert å overvinne en alvorlig funksjonshemming, og hans kjærlighet til Darlington FC har vært en konstant kilde til inspirasjon i hans liv.

En Uforglemmelig Fortelling om Motgang og Seier

Paul ble rammet av meningitt som syv måneder gammel, noe som førte til betydelige funksjonshemninger. Men han ga aldri opp. Fra å være helt avhengig av andre, til å bli en uavhengig voksen – hans reise er fylt med både ydmykhet og triumf. I denne boken beskriver han:

  • Fotballens rolle i Pauls liv.
  • Historiske øyeblikk fra Darlington FCs reise.
  • Refleksjoner over livet i en "spesialskole" og samfunnets syn på funksjonshemninger.
