A riotous peek into the off-beat world of one of football's most recognisable characters, Jon Parkin. 

The much-travelled journeyman striker played for more than 20 clubs during a career that stretched over two decades, and he has since become a co-host of the hugely popular Undr the Cosh podcast.

Known as 'The Beast' due to his height and weight, this gentle giant has a mischievous and irrepressible sense of humour that has won him thousands of fans. 

Now, Parkin turns his focus to the world of football and celebrity in his own inimitable way.

With more than 100 stand-along anecdotes, observations and the occasional rant, Parkin has created a football book for ages, destined to poke fun at The Beautiful Game, the people who run it and the world in general.

With Parky, everything is on the table in a hilarious, sideways look at football and the wonderful characters he's come across so far.
