In sporting terms, a Perfect 10 simply cannot be bettered. When stars get this coveted maximum score, it means they are simply in a class of their own. Now, some of Britain's leading football journalists have adapted the phrase to pick up on a fascinating publishing challenge. They were asked to select a top club and name their "Perfect 10" list of players, using the timescale of the trail-blazing 1960's right up to the modern world of mega million fees and global transfers. There were no positional restrictions. Each prestigious list could contain ten centre-forwards, or just as easily have six wingers and four goalkeepers. The clubs who were put under the microscope and each given a "Perfect 10" by the authors who studied the claims of an array of supremely talented candidates were: Manchester United; Chelsea; Newcastle United; Aston Villa and Glasgow Rangers.The end product is five individual paperback books of which "Newcastle's Perfect 10" is one - featuring golden memories, famous games and legendary individual performances.
"Newcastle Perfect 10" carries 208 pages of personal debate as award-winning North East journalist John Gibson considers and dismisses the claims of some real superstars in his ultimate search for the greatest of them all. This book comes with a selection of classic images that will bring the feats of a host of Newcastle giants to life.
