An
ex-professional footballer, Mike Di Placido’s debut pamphlet takes its
title from his magical trial with Manchester United in the early
seventies. His time there is warmly recorded in snapshots of Messrs.
Busby, Stiles, Law and, not least, his fourth person of The Trinity,
George Best. (Go here to read a poem from the collection.)
