This is to announce the publication of my new novel, THE ANFIELD MAN, a transforming novel about One Man’s Will and Source of Happiness against that of another. It is, also, a Holy Man’s Contribution to the Beautiful Game of Soccer.

The novel tells the story of two Football fans, a Manchester United Supporter and a Liverpool Supporter, who travels to Africa separately. Each man is in search of twin boys that are about to be.
Liverpool and Manchester United are bitter rivals in Football. Liverpool has won more things than Manchester United; and Manchester United Supporters want to change that. Frank, a Liverpool Supporter, hears in Rio that a pregnant woman is about to give birth to twin boys that will dominate the World of Football. A Seer in Rio had made the prediction. And a Manchester United Supporter had already flown to Africa, where the Seer says the twins will be born; his goal is to get the twin's parents on his side and then take them to Manchester United when it becomes appropriate to do so. Frank flies to Africa in a hurry upon hearing this, determined to get the twin's parents on his side and then take them to Liverpool, instead of Manchester United. A fateful encounter with a Holy Man awaits Frank in Africa. Whilst a deadly battle for the twins awaits Frank and Alex - both Englishmen - at a dangerous border crossing in one of the poorest places on Earth.
The first novel of its kind, it uses spiritual insight and philosophical arguments to tackle some of the major problems facing football, including Monkey Chants at black footballers. It, also, uses the Confessions of a Corrupt Referee to offer a better way of monitoring match officials in a bid to improve the game.
Children are the future of Football and have always been the future of Football. Pele was once a child. And so were all the other greats of Football. Every true football fan would thus care about CHILDREN THAT ARE BEING HARMED. In the Kidnapped Kids and The Secret Police of Arguido – Arguido being a land close to where the twins are about to be born – The Anfield Man exposes how some individuals in the Secret Police aided and abetted the kidnapping of little children, and then piled pressure on the mothers of the stolen kids to give them false confessions in a bid to hide their crimes.
Talking about children, the novel shows how a Primary School Boy Changed the Structure of the Football Association when he decided to fast and pray for two Football Managers - the manager of the team that he supports, and the manager of the national team of his country; both of whom the primary school boy believed were being troubled by Demons.
