Red Haven is a heartwarming father and son tale through business and football, told through Manchester United 2006/07.
Mark Cross is an enormous MUFC fan heavily inspired by the club’s 1999 Treble; opening his labor of love ‘Red Haven’ cafe, dedicated to his beloved Reds.
Yet in the summer of 2006, Mark’s business and personal lives have collapsed alongside the team’s. The team and him are both suffering; Chelsea are dominating the Premiership and Mark’s drowning in business debt and estranged from his family.
Yet 2006/07 sees an upturn in fortunes, on and off the field, where team, players and Mark go through a quest in search of the promised land. Through football, family, business and life lessons, Mark, Red Haven and Manchester United collaborate magically together through the season.
Fictionalised combined with real match intertwines, twenty years on, this remains a compelling and heartwarming read for any fans of football, coming-of-age stories and particularly Manchester United.
