{"product_id":"9780752494630","title":"Geoff Bradford","description":"Bristol Rovers’ most famous player is undoubtedly Geoff Bradford. He holds the club record for goals scored (242 in 461 Football League appearances) and remains the only player to win a Full England International cap while with the club. To research this book, the authors have been given access to an archive of information and original photographs from his family.   Bristol-born Geoff was a loyal one-club man having turned down the option of a transfer to First Division Liverpool. He suffered two very severe career-threatening knee injuries and returned to play football for his club, who rewarded him with a Testimonial match at the end of his fifteenth season. Besides representing England, he also won other honours for Rovers winning the Third Division (South) Championship in 1952\/53 and also played in many representative matches for the English Football Association including a six-week tour to the West Indies in 1955. There has never been a biography of Bradford, so this will be a welcome title for all dedicated Rovers fans.","brand":"The History Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47121776574704,"sku":"9780752494630","price":10.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9780752494630_p0.jpg?v=1763637514","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9780752494630","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
