Everyone remembers their first time, don't they?
I'm talking of course about their first Plymouth Argyle match! GAWBA is a series of football books that is written by Plymouth Argyle fans - Famed for their "gallows humour", you really get an insight into what "long-suffering" means when you read what Argyle fans have been through over the years - never really hitting their potential, awful football, crap managers, worse players, stadiums that never get built, failed world cup bids, relegations and (VERY) nearly going out of existence altogether.
But it's these lows that make the highs much sweeter - and whether you're an Argyle fan or not, you're bound to recognise a few traits and tales from your own "matchday experience" at all levels of the English game.
"Your First Plymouth Argyle Match" is the first book in the series, and focuses on Argyle fans' very first football match - their first trip to the "Theatre of Greens" to watch the mighty Green Army in action for the first time. As you'll learn from reading these stories, a very large majority of Argyle fans ended up supporting them DESPITE their first match, not because of it!
