'Tickets began to have qualms even in the instant that passed between the headbutt starting and the headbutt landing ..."

Ex-Australian rules footballer Ian 'Tickets' Thompson is the bad boy darling of TV's top rating sports show, 'Leather and Lace'. The more offensive he is, the more the fans love him. But how will a million viewers, not to mention the police, react to his unprovoked assault on a homeless man? More to the point, what about his trigger-happy employer, media tycoon Sir Barry Haynes? To Billy Nock, fading champion, icon of fair play and host of the dismally rating rival football show, these are crucial questions. And when it starts to look like there's a scheme afoot to ensure Tickets gets away with it, Billy is spurred to action. It's a boots of all story of lies, deception ... and cancer.

Tony Wilson's novel is funny yet savage satire on the power of those in control, and their ability to trample on those who aren't. Australian comedian and ABC 702 radio host Wendy Harmer described it as 'one of the best satirical novel ever written in this country.'
