Sunset on Hibs


'If you think you know everything there is to know about Hearts owner Wallace Mercer's bid to buy Hibs, think again. Stunning new light is cast on one of Scottish football's biggest-ever stories' – Alan PattulloDavid Duff was Chairman of Hibernian at the most extraordinary time in its history. In 1990, Heart of Midlothian chief Wallace Mercer pushed for a merger of the two Edinburgh clubs. But instead of creating one united Edinburgh team capable of challenging the Old Firm, it became abundantly clear that these machinations would see Hearts flourish and Hibs destroyed. With internal shareholders wanting to sell out, the end seemed inevitable. David Duff had other ideas. Joining forces with outraged fans he spearheaded boardroom resistance against this takeover, which would have meant the end of the club they loved. For the first time, Duff tells the explosive inside story of the plot to destroy Hibernian and the real motivations of those behind it. Featuring some of the best-known names in Scottish business and football, it is a riveting tale of double-dealing, greed and betrayal.

Kortalanul atléta - Fitten egy életen át


Amikor az ember fiatal, azt hiszi, hogy az izom, az erő, a gyorsaság olyan, mint a levegő: van. Nem kell érte küzdeni, nem kell róla gondoskodni. Aztán egy nap észreveszi, hogy amikor fel akar ugrani a kanapéról, valami más történik, mint húsz évvel ezelőtt. Nem ugrik, hanem tápászkodik. Nem sprintel, hanem csak elindul. És amikor meg akar emelni valamit, az nem a karjában nyöszörög, hanem a derekában. Veled is megtörtént? Nem kell, hogy így legyen! Lakatos Péter legújabb könyvében feltárja az öregedés biológiai okait a hormonális változásoktól a sejtek működésén keresztül az izmok elvesztéséig. Megmutatja, hogyan lehet a táplálkozást, az edzést és a regenerációt a korunkhoz igazítani, hogy ne veszítsünk, hanem nyerjünk energiát, izmot, állóképességet és mentális frissességet. Nem a fiatalság hajszolását és az örök életet tűzi ki célul, hanem megmutatja, hogyan maradhatunk hosszú távon mozgékonyak, egészségesek, és hogyan lehetünk a legjobb formánkban akár ötven-, hatvan- vagy hetvenéves korunk fölött is.

Hogyan nyerd meg a Premier League-et? - Az angol bajnok Liverpool FC vezető adatelemzőjének bestsellere


A labdarúgást nagyban meghatározó adatforradalom története az egyik kulcsszereplő, Ian Graham tollából. Ian Graham 2012 és 2023 között a Liverpool FC kutatási igazgatójaként dolgozott. A klub ebben az időszakban érte el legnagyobb sikereit az 1980-as évek óta, a 2020-as Premier League-győzelemmel pedig három gyötrelmes évtizedet követően ismét felértek az angol futball csúcsára. A szerző most először tárja fel az olvasóközönség előtt, hogy az adatok valójában mekkora szerepet játszottak az elmúlt évtized kulcsfontosságú döntéseiben, kezdve Jürgen Klopp 2015-ös vezetőedzői kinevezésétől, egészen Mohamed Szalah 2017-ben történő szerződtetéséig. A könyv emellett betekintést nyújt a modern labdarúgás világába: megtudhatjuk, hogy egy nagyrészt üres stadionokban lejátszott szezon miként formálta a hazai pálya előnyéről alkotott felfogásunkat, és hogy minden idők legjobb játékosa miért nem az, akire sokan gondolnánk. Graham rávilágít, hogy abban a sportágban, amelyet egyre inkább egy szűk elitcsoport irányít, miként tehetnek szert nagy előnyre azok a versenytársak, akik kellő hozzáértéssel bánnak az adatokkal.

Tour de France


A Tour de France a futball-világbajnokság és a nyári olimpiai játékok után a világ harmadik legnagyobb sporteseménye. Az évente megrendezésre kerülő sportesemények között pedig egyenesen világelső! Ugyanakkor egyfajta történelmi időgép is, melynek révén a francia körverseny 1903-as debütálása óta folyamatosan új és új hősök születnek - pozitívak és negatívak egyaránt. Legfőbb ismertetőjele a sárga trikó, amit kizárólag a legjobbak viselhetnek. Egy jelkép, amelynek régóta megvan a saját mítosza, s amit természetesen más egyéb sportágakban is időről-időre megpróbálnak lekopírozni. 21 szakaszt kell a résztvevőknek teljesíteniük keresztül-kasul Franciaországon. Közben pedig megküzdenek a forrósággal, az esővel, olykor jégesővel, tekernek szűk utcákon és meredek emelkedőkön a véget érni nem akaró etapok során. Stephan Klemm a könyv 21 fejezete alatt közelebb hozza ezt a modern Odüsszeiát és igyekszik megvilágítani számunkra a Tour cirkuszának valamennyi oldalát. Művében végigkalauzol bennünket a Tour de France lebilincselő történetén, megannyi érdekes sztori és beszélgetés segítségével. ,,Stephan Klemm olyan alapossággal és részletességgel írt könyvet a Tourról, ahogy eddig még talán senki." CHRISTIAN PRUDHOMME, a Tour de France versenyigazgatója

Trans-Am Challengers


Trans-Am Challengers: The Story Behind Detroit''s Racing RevolutionIn April 1964, Ford?s Mustang pony car stormed onto the scene, igniting a sales phenomenon that forced Detroit?s other automakers to scramble to create their own competitors. Around the same time, the Sports Car Club of America (SCCA) was transforming from a purely amateur organisation into a professional racing powerhouse, introducing prize-money championships.By 1966, the SCCA launched two landmark series: the Canadian-American Challenge Cup (Can-Am) and the Trans-American Sedan Championship (Trans-Am). While Can-Am focused on unlimited FIA Group 7 sports cars, Trans-Am catered to FIA Group 2 touring cars, with classes divided by engine sizes: up to 2000cc and 2001-5000cc. The Over-2000cc class was crafted specifically with the Mustang in mind, ensuring Ford?s interest and leveraging the growing pony car wars.Chevrolet answered Ford?s Mustang with the launch of the Camaro in September 1966, sparking fierce competition on the track and in showrooms. Soon, Mercury, Pontiac, Dodge, Plymouth, and AMC joined the fray, turning the Trans-Am series into a battleground for Detroit?s ?Big Four?. Manufacturers saw Trans-Am success as a path to dominance, investing heavily in developing race-ready cars and unleashing low-production homologation specials like the Mustang Boss 302, Camaro Z28, Pontiac Firebird Trans-Am, AMC Javelin Mark Donohue Edition, Dodge Challenger T/A, and Plymouth ?Cuda AAR?now some of the rarest and most valuable classic American cars.Beyond the famous Mustang and Camaro rivalry, this book uncovers the untold stories of their challengers and the relentless pursuit of sales glory. Mercury nearly claimed the championship in 1967, and AMC triumphed in 1971 and 1972 with Penske Racing. The fierce competition left an indelible mark on American motorsport history.A chapter also explores lesser-known contenders from outside the U.S., such as Ford Falcon Sprints in the British Saloon Car Championship and the powerful Holden Monaros and Ford Falcons that dominated Australian circuits.This is more than just a tale of Mustang versus Camaro?it?s the story of an era when Detroit?s finest fought to conquer the track and the showroom floor, leaving a legacy of engineering brilliance and motorsport passion.
