A biography of Alan Curtis
A sensational account of Swansea City’s 2010/11 season covering 12 months in the life of a Welsh football club that in 2002 was just 40 minutes away from extinction and expulsion from the football league. In June 2010, under new management, the club pushed its way kicking and screaming in to the psyche of the Welsh football public challenging at every level the presumed domination of Cardiff City. In November they put out the Cardiff fire with a resounding victory in the capital city followed by performance after performance on the pitch in front of thousands of adoring fans. This is the story of that season told by the very people who saw all those dramatic events unfold. It is an account of a club which refused to die, which would never give in, and which went in eight years from the very depths of despair to the edge of a brave new world, the greatest league in the world – the Premier League.
In 2011, nine years after being on the brink of obscurity, Swansea City made it to the Premier League following their defeat of Reading in the Championship play-off final at Wembley. Wales, at last, had a premier club in the Premier League. This no-holds-barred account graphically describes that first year in the Premier League and the dramas of one football fan’s journey. Written off by pundits at the beginning of the season, this turned out to be an explosive year in the history of Swansea City FC.

Since 1912, Swansea's football side, be they called Town or City, has touched the hearts of all who have walked through the Vetch Field gates. This book contains the memories of some of those people. It has always been a rollercoaster ride supporting the Swans. The anecdotes within these covers recollect the 1924, 1949 and 2000 championship wins, the tremendous FA Cup win at Anfield in 1964 and the controversial semi-final exit against Preston a few weeks later when 20,000 Swans fans swelled the Birmingham crowd. Fans recall the awful feeling of having to apply for re-election in 1975, Harry Griffiths, the arrival of John Toshack, those glory years when Swansea were at the very top of the football pyramid, going bust in 1985, the Wembley win in 1994 and the play-off final of 1997 - and of course, most recently, the celebrations at Rotherham in May 2000 when Swansea City captured the Division Three title. These are stories containing passion, tragedy and humour, from Whittikar to Hollins, the history of Wales' premier club side is alive and recorded in this book.

Capped at every level by Wales, from youth to full international, Roger Freestone was number one goalkeeper at Chelsea for two years and competed at the very highest level. He is currently at the pinnacle of his career and last season broke the Swansea City club record for the number of clean sheets as the Swans raced to the Division Three championship with the best defensive record in the country.
Tony Ford has been in football since 1974 and was awarded an MBE in 2001 for his services to sport. He has starred for several Football League clubs, and he holds the appearance record for any player in the history of British football. Tony's story is one of struggle. He is a black footballer who during the 1970s, '80s and '90s plied his trade at Sunderland, Bradford City, Stoke City, West Bromwich Albion, Scunthorpe Utd, Mansfield, Grimsby and Rochdale.In those politically incorrect days he suffered the usual abuse any ethnic minority footballer would suffer not just from opposing players and fans, but from within the clubs he played for. However, he rose above it, maintained his discipline, and today is the most promising manager outside of the Premiership. His story will show a man who was determined to succeed, both on and off the pitch, and with the help of his family is one of the north's most respected footballers.This will be an official biography that will be have a lot of involvement from the subject. It will include many fascinating anecdotes from the dressing room (and after playing in 1,100 League games, Tony Ford has quite a few of them!), detailed career statistics and many photograph's. Endorsements will come from Brian Clough, Lou Macari, Emlyn Hughes, Paul Gascoigne, David Platt and Alex Ferguson.

This open access book uncovers the untold story of the making of Cosgrove Hall Productions' most successful works, bookended by the many others that, together, shaped an animation company which generated a ground-breaking and lasting impact like no other. Any British child of the 1980s will remember Danger Mouse – 'the world’s greatest secret agent' – and The Wind in the Willows, a series produced using stop frame puppets that faithfully recreated the world of Kenneth Grahame’s Edwardian story in remarkable detail. What they may not realise is that these acclaimed series, seemingly so different in style and approach, were made simultaneously under one roof: that of Cosgrove Hall Productions, in the modest suburb of Chorlton-cum-Hardy in Manchester. As the first substantial academic study on this company, this book explores the history of Cosgrove Hall Productions by delving into the pipelines behind its two most successful properties.
