Rick Holden Books


Rick's first book to be released was the highly anticipated autobiography "Football - Its a Minging Life: Rick Holden The Autobigraphy." The book is filled with hilarious stories of the antics that Rick got up to at his various clubs and explains in detail, sometimes too graphically, some of the tricks that he played on his teammates and how he tried to live his life around the distractions that football imposed. Rick is a survivor and never gives up, and his autobiography conveys the message to aspiring athletes that if you persevere you will succeed. This book is about his life and not just an episodic detail about football players and games. Rick talks honestly and controversially, and this book is a must read. The autobiography can now be ordered from Wibble Publishing.

Rick's second book became available on 1st. March 2011. The book is about his second sporting love, cricket, and has been jointly written with Oldham Athletic historian and author Dave Moore. "Lancashire Cricket: Every Day of the Year" can be ordered online from Wibble Publishing.

Book number three is now available. "101 Things That Get Our Goat About Football" is an amusing look at the state of football, both in the UK and worldwide. Rick Holden, as an ex-Premiership player, has identified 101 things that really annoy him about the sport and Dave Moore, as a dedicated fan of the game, gives his perspective on the irritants that Rick has singled out. Sometimes the duo are in sync but other times they are opposed. Whether or not the duo are of the same mind or not, the comparisons make compelling reading and leave no stone unturned. Read more about it or place your order at Wibble Publishing.
