Summary

Taking its name from a Liverpool fan's message to buck-toothed Brazilian Ronaldinho, Cilla Wants Her Teeth Back draws together all the football world's best banners and stadium announcements, glorying in the anarchic, partisan humour which can arise when supporters and club DJs are intent on getting their message across to a wider audience.

Cilla Wants Her Teeth Back Summary

Cilla Wants Her Teeth Back: Football's Barmiest Banners, Funniest Chants and Stupidest Stadium Announcements by Chris Charles

In recent years, home-made banners at football matches have become almost as commonplace as scarves and hats. Unhappy with the manager? Want to wind up your opponents? You're only a sheet and a pot of paint away from getting your message across to a wider audience. And it's not just the fans who are having their say, with club DJs also putting the boot into the opposition, while warning would-be smokers what will happen to them if they dare light up in the ground. Cilla Wants Her Teeth Back (which takes its name from a message to buck-toothed Brazilian Ronaldinho from Liverpool fans) is a book that for the first time brings together the world's best banners and strangest stadium announcements. So if you want to know what happened when communism met alcoholism and which team Dick Turpin scored for, sit back and enjoy the ride.
