Description

Feeling Blue is a football fan's memoir like no other.

Spanning more than 35 years and set across three continents, it is a true story that encompasses love, race and identity - all interweaved with the chaotic fall and rise of Manchester City.

Dickie Denton was born into a 1960s Manchester home with many siblings, one of whom was adopted and of Asian parentage.

As he grew up, Dickie faced the twin challenges of racist bullying and academic underachievement.

Football was his refuge and Manchester City became his obsession - through boyhood, coming of age and adulthood.

By middle age he had the trappings of a successful international business career but still craved the thing that he most desired and continued to elude him: success for Manchester City.

His story dramatically climaxes in 2012, on a sultry May night in Singapore.

Feeling Blue is not just for Man City fans, or even just football fans.

It is a deeply personal story told with humour and honesty that will appeal to all and bring forth tears and laughter in equal measure.
