Ready to make his mark.
Specky comes face to face with a tough, talented player by the name of Derek 'Screamer' Johnson. He was responsible for having Specky sent off during a game last season. The two boys become bitter rivals and when a popular TV show runs a nationwide football contest Specky is relieved when everyone except Screamer decides to enter. But why is Screamer such a bully on the field? And why is he sucking up to Specky's team-mates?
"Felice Arena and Garry Lyons read their own work in a bright and breezy manner with a hint of boy humour. A great story for boys in the twelve to fourteen age group."
