Críticas:

"Another beautiful, unexpected masterpiece by Derek Hammond & Gary Silke. Wow!" --Book of the Week, Ping-E-lieër magazine, Netherlands

"This is a book which will hopefully alert the modern football community to what the game used to be like. It's a compendium of paraphernalia which should, you'd have thought, be a best seller in the Chelsea club shop, assuming it is deemed appropriate. And it should be. You get page after page of minutiae stretching over several decades but focussing heavily on the 70s. The book's USP is that it brings together all the things most of us have probably done away with, and are now regretting it years later because it could have been worth a packet on eBay. This little book has hardly a page without something to catch the attention. With a little proactive PR work this sort of thing could go viral in Japan - maybe it already has." --FootballPink.net

"The authors have tapped into a rich vein of nostalgia by identifying the kind of memorabilia we will all have had at one time or another. I found myself transported back to my earlier days of watching football, swapping cards in the school playground and collecting autographs at the ground. Lovely books and they really have hit on a good formula. If they've done one for your club it's well worth the outlay to buy it - you might well find your own collection is not as complete as you once imagined it to be." --Programme Monthly & Football Collectable

"The Got Not Got books play it simple, to devastating effect. Long-forgotten childhood joys unexpectedly come flooding back." --Sunday Mirror Booked! Football Books of the Month

"There's a whole series of books called Got, Not Got: brilliant books looking back at old football memorabilia." --James Brown, talkSPORT

"The English publisher Pitch Publishing provides a series of books with a clear penchant for soccer romance. It covers the period from 1960 to 1990, when the commercial monstrosity of the Champions League so it was not yet invented. The books are treasure chests of memories and memorabilia, such as badges, football towns, programs, shirts, scarves, long-playing plates and old elftal and stadium photos." --Panenka magazine, Holland

"This book about Chelsea, from the Lost World of Football guys, is well worth a peruse. Football's culture is fast becoming a genre in its own right, with Derek Hammond and Gary Silke, the joint authors, at the forefront of this interesting publishing phenomenon." --Football Book Review

Reseña del editor:

Got, Not Got: The Lost World of Chelsea is an Aladdin's cave of memories and memorabilia, guaranteed to whisk you back to Stamford Bridge's fondly remembered 'Golden Age' of mud and magic - as well as a Blues-mad childhood of miniature tabletop games and imaginary, comic-fuelled worlds. The book recalls a more innocent era of football, lingering longingly over relics from the good old days - Blues stickers and petrol freebies, league ladders, big-match programmes and much more - revisiting lost football culture, treasures and pleasures that are 100 per cent Chelsea. If you were a Junior Blue, one of the army of obsessive soccer kids at any time from the arrival of Dave Sexton on the Kings Road to the early days of the Premier League, then this is the book to recall the mavericks - Osgood, Hudson and Dixon, Nevin, Walker and Harris - and the marvels of the lost world of football.
