Inshallah United : A Story of Faith and Football

Longlisted for the William Hill Sports Book of the Year Awards 2023 'There was always hope. There was always next season. Inshallah.' Inshallah United is about growing up as a strictly halal Stretford Ender; a devout Muslim and diehard Manchester Red. It's about praying five times a day that United would sign Alan Shearer and knock the Scousers off their perch. And it's a deeply personal account of life as a Muslim Asian Mancunian kid in the late 80s and 90s, bookmarked by the most successful period in Manchester United's history.
