| Author Writes Lionesses Book within 48 hours of the Euro 25 FinalBy: Phil Woods The gripping read looks at the last three major tournaments, Euro 22, The World Cup 23 and Euro 25, all finals featuring Sarina Wiegman's England. Phil Woods of Connah's Quay, Flintshire said, "I had the idea for the book as the final penalty was taken in Basel, and wanted to be the first to get such a book out." He went on to say, "I spent Monday and Tuesday furiously writing, not even giving myself time to sleep." Once he'd finished he decided to go down the route of publishing with Amazon, the quickest way to get a book published and available. Phil explained, "The longest and most frustrating part of the project was trying to format the book in such a way that it was acceptable to Amazon." Phil has traditionally written comedy or Formula One, being former editor of two motorsport magazines and his latest book 'The Racing Biography of Lewis Hamilton'. To write about football is a bit of a departure, but the Tranmere Rovers fan has formally written extensively about the club he supports. The book 'The Lionesses Roar Again' celebrates more than the two Euro wins, it also looks at the World Cup and the lead up to these moments, including the near misses until Sarina Wiegman took over. The book also dedicated a chapter to the genius that is Sarina Wiegman, a manager who has been part of the last 5 major championship finals, the Dutch star taking the Netherlands to glory before taking the England Job. On writing the book so fast, Phil Woods said "I'm sure people have written to tight deadlines and fast before, but I seriously doubt books have been written in 48 hours. I hope that people enjoy looking back over at these wonderful moments, they should never be forgotten and now I hope they won't with the release of this book." Phil lives in Flintshire, North Wales and has three children Anna, Callum & Rebecca, plus one grandchild, Amelia. The book is available for just £5.99 in paperback, and £10.99 in hardback on Amazon.
