The End Summary

The End: 80 Years of Life on the Terraces by Tom Watt

The End is a story that has never been told before and, as the era of an all-seater Premier League dawns, it won't be told again. The End is an oral history of Arsenal's famous North Bank terrace from which generations of supporters have cheered and bemoaned the fortunes of one of the world's most famous football teams. Eighty years of history - football of course, but the stories, too, of families and friends, fights and passions, heroes and villains, the best and worst of the Great Saturday Afternoon Adventure - is told in the words of the fans who have breathed passionate (and economic) life into Highbury since before the First World War.

The End Reviews

This exhaustive and loving oral history of Arsenal's North Bank is a welcome antidote to the cynical ephemera that usually characterises sports writing -- NIck Hornby * The Sunday Times *
A well-balanced book which does justice to the cause * When Saturday Comes *
A must for Arsenal fans * Today *
Watt has gathered testimony from fans, heroes and villains alike, and The End amounts to nothing less than a portrait of a community * Irish Times *
Watt's love of Arsenal inspired him to produce this engrossing compendium of one of the game's most famous terraces * The Independent *
