Leeds United Memorabilia is a captivating photographic history of
artefacts and paraphernalia connected with the famous club and its
100-plus-year history. Leeds United did not create football
collectibles and souvenirs but they were one of the main drivers of
the industry, especially in the 1960s and 70s when Don Revie
rejuvenated the club and put them on the map of world club
football. Together with well-known collector and historian Neil
Barker, author Robert Endeacott brings the artefacts to life with
fascinating information and entertaining anecdotes. Filled with
eye-catching photos of rare collectibles, the book features
contributions and interviews from major collectors like Chris
Miller, David Kirkby, Ben Hunt, Pete Hopton, Mark Whelan and David
Gaertner. There’s also a foreword by renowned sports artist and
raconteur Paul ‘The Beaver’ Trevillion, who is an integral part
of the history of Leeds United memorabilia. Leeds fans of all ages
will love this book!

Cocker Hoop is the authorised biography of football coaching great
Les Cocker. A tenacious and resilient forward, Cocker played for
two clubs: Stockport County (196 games, 48 goals) and Accrington
Stanley (130 games, 50 goals) before retiring in 1958 to move into
coaching. As one of the first recipients of full coaching badges at
England's Lilleshall, he established himself as a supreme trainer
and coach for Leeds United, and helped build a famous footballing
dynasty alongside Don Revie. His rising reputation attracted the
FA's attention, and Cocker helped the England team achieve their
pinnacle success in 1966. Filled with interviews, anecdotes and
revelations from throughout Cocker's career, Cocker Hoop brings us
a personal portrait of the great man, and is co-written by his son
Dave Cocker and sportswriter and novelist Robert Endeacott.
