'Matt Dickinson superbly recreates the pulse-racing, heart-pumping, deadline-shredding excitement he felt as a young reporter forced to write and re-write his copy to keep up with a rollercoaster of a season that changed the history of football... It is the trust he built two decades ago that allows him to get beyond the banalities of many ghost-written football memoirs or compendiums of fan nostalgia.'

— Nick Robinson 

Quotes

  • 'What a treat this book is for every United fan as Matt Dickinson takes us back to a time when everything and anything seemed possible. Brilliantly researched, superbly written and featuring the voices of those who made it happen, this is a delight.'

    — Jim White
  • 'I wondered whether there’d be anything left to tell about 1999 but this is superbly framed and full of fresh insight.'

    — Adam Crafton
  • 'Absolutely engrossed.. So many new insights and details. Almost like a football book version of The Last Dance.'

    — Miguel Delaney
  • 'Full of detail and lovely stories I’d never seen or heard before. Dickinson shows that the Treble season was far from a year-long party. It was gruelling. Totally unlike today, nearly every player was a character with leadership skills - a team of 11 captains. They were tough, totally dedicated to the United cause, but not always pleasant.'

    — Michael Crick
  • 'For some of us, the greatest story of our sporting lives, told beautifully and with consummate skill and great affection by the brilliant ?Matt Dickinson. Can’t recommend it highly enough.'

    — Oliver Holt
  • 'Full of fresh revelations and insight, this is a masterful retelling of a remarkable year'

    — Jon Spurling
  • 'The nostalgia in this book flows through the portraits offered of the personalities who filled the dressing-room. There they are, on page after page, captured “in their athletic prime”, on their way to the most successful club season in English soccer history. It is not all sweetness and light.' 

    — Paul Rouse
