"Sully" - Smiths references in new Manchester City hooligan book

Smiths references in new Manchester City hooligan book

I was given a copy of this new Man City hooligan book and it contains a few Smiths quotes.
At the introduction, it says ''I am the sweet and tender hooligan and I swear that I'll never never do it again (and of course he wont, well not until the next time).

There is also a chapter, when the hooligan was in Strangeways during the riots, entitled (predictably..) 'Strangeways Here We Come'

There's also be the odd lyric thrown in during sentences that only a fan could pick out and I can't remember what they were right now but will post a few more up if I remember. Seems like the writer was a bit of a fan
Oh, at the acknowledgements, he says..'and to all those Blues who I ran with.... the pleasure, the privilage was mine'.

Here's the book info

        And the sad thing is people will buy it, just as they've bought the books by neandathal fans of manure, leeds, milwall and the like.

              Why on earth are any references to the Smiths Morrissey put up here?

              Any nonentity/minor celeb etc farts a bar of 'There is a Light' in the bath and it is up here?

              I am glad I hardly come here now - this site sucks donkey gonads.
