Book Description
Who is the green man who stares down enigmatically for the corbels and capitals of churches across Europe? He has been linked to Robin Hood, Pan, the Oak King and the Holly King. For such a blatantly Pagan image to have persisted in Christian churches all over Europe surely implies a tremendous power and significance.

Book Description
"The team never loses. They just run out of time." —Steve McClaren From Alan Hansen's falsely prophetic "You'll never win anything with kids," to Eric Cantona's existentialist aphorism on the theme of seagulls, sardines, and trawlers, this fun reference is a neat collection of words of wit and wisdom by and about Manchester United's players, managers, and officials past and present. Appearing in no particular order, each quotation is dated and attributed to its source and—where appropriate—accompanied by explanatory asides and supporting statistics, making it the perfect companion guide for any fan of Man U.
