A riotous peek into the off-beat world of one of football’s most recognisable
characters, Jon Parkin.
The much-travelled journeyman striker played for more than 20 clubs during a
career that stretched over two decades, and he has since become a co-host of the
hugely popular Undr The Cosh podcast.
Known as ‘The Beast’ due to his height and weight, this gentle giant has a
mischievous and irrepressible sense of humour that has won him thousands of fans.
Now, Parkin turns his focus to the world of football and celebrity in his own
inimitable way.
With more than 100 stand-along anecdotes, observations and the occasional rant,
Parkin has created a football book for ages, destined to poke fun at The Beautiful
Game, the people who run it and the world in general.
With Parky, everything is on the table in a hilarious, sideways look at football and
the wonderful characters he’s come across so far.
