From the shambolic outfit that was the British Communist Party in the 50's, to Cold War Moscow at its coldest, to his friendship with members of the Cambridge Five, and his eventual debut in front of 50,000 at the Lenin stadium, Comrade Jim is the remarkable true story of the only Englishman to have played - and survived - Russian league football, told with grace, humour and lashings of vodka. Comrade Jim can be purchased online at Amazon.co.uk and all good booksellers.
