Gooner Book Club: Fever Pitch by Nick Hornby



Most Americans know it as the Jimmy Fallon vehicle costarring Drew Barrymore and featuring the Red Sox’s unlikely (and unliked) victorious season in 2004, but Fever Pitch, as originally conceived, followed one man’s lifelong obsessive love for our favourite football team. To restore this seminal Arsenal text to its good name, we thought we’d give it a read-through and let you know our thoughts. Feel free to read along with us and share your own comments on Arsenal history. There’ll be weekly posts on the book itself, as well as occasional videos of historic moments mentioned in the text and some motivational quotes to keep our Gunners going!

We’ll begin on Thursday with some thoughts on the first fifty pages, so get reading, and we’ll see you then.
