Harton Town are in trouble. With three games left before the end of the season, they’re six points adrift at the bottom of the table. They need a hero. They got a delivery driver. And not a particularly good one at that.
Johnny Cook is out of shape, out of luck and very nearly out of hair. But it wasn’t always like this. Back in 1986, he was Harton’s hottest young striker for almost twenty minutes before a heavy challenge ended his career on the same night it began.
Due to a ridiculous, and yet somehow plausible, series of events, Cook is given the chance to save his old club from the drop. His players hate him, his chairman hates him, and his girlfriend is struggling to recall exactly what it was she ever liked about him.
It’s that old-fashioned rags-to-rags, boy-has-girl, girl-doesn’t-like-boy, boy-wants-to-keep-girl, girl-wants-a-boy-who-doesn’t-use-farts-as-punctuation story, juxtaposed against the top level of English football and set to the music of Supertramp.
What people (well, football journalists) have said about Johnny Cook The Impossible Job
“There’s no other writer quite like Iain Macintosh. I think, on balance, that’s a good thing.” – Jonathan Wilson
“He sent me a copy and, I have to say, it’s made the most wonderful doorstop.” – Mark Chapman
"Iain Macintosh, having run out of milk, once asked whether it was morally acceptable to put his wife's expressed breast milk – intended for his baby daughter – in his coffee. This book is everything you'd expect from someone like that." – Gabriele Marcotti
“It’s not too long, it’s got football in it and there are some rudimentary penis jokes. What’s not to like?” – Patrick Barclay

Johnny Cook The Impossible Job edition by Iain Macintosh Literature Fiction eBooks Reviews
An easy and great read I can recommend to everyone who enjoys the beautiful game. I hope a sequel will come soon.
As always from Iain Macintosh. A good read !
I loved this book. Written in the humorous manner that is typical of Macintosh. I felt like I was 12 again reading my football stories. Really hoping for a sequel.
I had to read it in one sitting, I simply couldn't put the down. Enthralling and hilarious at the same time. I actually laughed out loud. A surprisingly poignant book as well.
I heard somewhere that Iain wrote the majority of this novel between the hours of 10pm-2am. I also think Iain likes to have pint. He's a brilliant writer of football, and has combined his love of both into this great read. Pure entertainment, I've read it twice and love it. Highest recommendation from someone who also likes pints and football.
A fun bit of soccer fiction. This was a very enjoyable read. Macintosh kept me entertained and surprised me a few times. I hope he writes another. I'd definitely read another story about Johnny Cook.
As a Football and Football manager (the game) fan, this book is fantastic. A lovely read so hard to put down. Macintosh proves himself to be more than a Football column writer (I enjoyed reading his articles he wrote for The New Paper, a Singaporean newspaper), drawing readers to come to know, feel and love Cookie, Harton Town and the many characters in the club. A must read for all true lovers of the beautiful game. version is excellent.
