IN A LEAGUE OF HIS OWN! Relive the best Roy of the Rovers stories
from the 1970s in this exciting anthology of reprinted classic
strips, celebrating over 65 years of the iconic football comic.
Such was the popularity of Roy Race and the mighty Melchester
Rovers in Tiger, that on 25th September 1976, a brand new comic
titled Roy of the Rovers launched! It was a golden era for football
and the strip. Melchester Rovers had a strong team during the
latter half of the 70s, reaching a European Cup Final in '78 and
the UEFA Cup in '79. It was a time in which the team looked for new
talent from overseas and managed to land Varagosa's greatest
player, Paco Diaz. For Roy Race there were several professional and
personal triumphs, including a brief stint at managing the England
team and the birth of his twins. From becoming a parent to playing
alongside Trevor Francis and Malcolm MacDonald, Roy Race and the
Rovers continue to strike gold!

illustrate the challenges faced by these role models, but lessons
