Barney started Red News, Manchester United’s oldest and one of only two remaining fanzines, in 1987
Growing up as a cockney Red, he experienced United through times of immense hooliganism, side by side with his amazing Mother, herself an activist in the United fanbase, and a love affair developed that has lasted until today and beyond.
An in depth discussion of fan culture, the current state of the football club, the defiance of a fanbase, the future, what a fanzine really means in the modern day and the clubs wayward woes, plus some really touching, funny and at times saddening stories of times and Reds gone by, with mention made of many a familiar name, this is a true must listen, as the age old saying goes, for any red, young or old.
