The gritty story of working-class lads in Bradford, at the heart of Northern Monkeys is The Ointment — a football firm built on pride and reputation. But behind the matchday clashes are deeper struggles: addiction, poverty, broken homes, love, revenge, and the fight to stay above water. As the firm rises, the police close in, determined to bring them down.
Some lads are just trying to escape their mundane lives. Others are chasing power and a reputation. And some just want a few beers, a laugh with their mates, and a bit of casual violence.
But what happens on the streets is only half the story.
Northern Monkeys goes beyond the terraces — deep into the lives, relationships and choices that shape these men when the crowds are gone, and the doors are shut.
A brutal, honest look at life on the edge, when the lines between good and bad start to blur — and then start to cross.

A brilliant read. From start to finish, the book encapsulates different sub plots which make the book impossible to put down and superbly written. Would highly recommend
A gripping insight into the lives of the firm. It’s not all fighting, it delves into the lives of the members and why they need that weekend release. Couldn’t stop reading it!
Absolute great book, can’t wait to read the next one when it is available
Great book, it’s draws you in and you never want to put it down. We all read it in a day. You know it’s a good book when everything else has to wait until you have finished reading it.
