The Blackpool Rock

Reviews

'Guaranteed to ensure you keep your trap shut next time you think about getting lairy in a seaside resort nightclub.' - ZOO magazine

'Hard as rock.' - The Blackpool Gazette

'A compelling, gripping and fascinating tale chronicling the life of an extraordinary doorman.' - On The Doors magazine

To the police he was Public Enemy Number One. To drunken gangs of yobs intent on trouble, he was a nightmare come true. Steve Sinclair was the toughest doorman in the wildest resort in Britain - and if you crossed him, payback was swift and certain.

Blackpool, once a byword for cheeky family fun, was by the 1980s a violent town plagued by lager louts, drug dealers and villains intent on muscling in on the lucrative club trade. Sinclair worked the biggest clubs and the roughest doors. He and his associates fought hundreds of battles against football hooligans, gang members and rival hardmen. They were also branded gangsters and were blamed by the police for serious unsolved crimes.

The Blackpool Rock is a candid insight into the dangerous world of the modern doorman and of the extreme methods he sometimes employs to defend himself and his customers and uphold his hard-won reputation.
