Darren’s New Book

Well-known Stanley supporter and author, Darren Woodhead, has been back at his word processor and now has a treat in store for fans.

My Football Life is Darren’s seventh book, spanning almost twenty years, but is completely different to anything he has written before!  

His previous six publications have concentrated on documenting the historical facts around football, primarily Accrington Stanley and local history and decided it was time to share his own experiences of a lifetime of obsession with football.  

Although once again Darren covers many aspects of Accrington Stanley, this book delves in the often humorous, sometimes painful experiences of playing, watching Stanley over the past five decades, travelling around the country and then onto writing, podcasts and just about every aspect of football he has encountered. 

This unique book also features many supporters and players who Darren has met along the way, includes dozens of photographs, many of which have never been published before and also features guest writers, including Peter Leatham and Stephen Lowe. 

The 52-page publication, produced by Peter Scott Printers, is in a similar format to the 50 Year Book and has now been released, with the aim of raising funds for the Accrington Stanley Supporters Trust in the same way the previous book did.  

The book is priced at £9 (£11 with postage, £14 overseas) and is exclusively available via the Accrington Stanley Supporters’ Trust, by mail order or from the Market Hall shop (from Friday 9th.
