Nodrog Small | 423 comments Hello,

Please could you add this book edition:-

Title: Feed The Beast.
Author: Jon Parkin.
Publisher: Reach Sport.
Publication Date: 2019.
ISBN: 9781911613305.
Format: Paperback.
Page Total: 271 pages.
Description: (from another edition of this book on Goodreads)
Spoilt. Overpaid. Ungrateful. Removed from reality.
These words are often used to describe modern day footballers. None of them apply to Jon Parkin.
The South Yorkshire boy has seen and done it all in a footballing life that peaked with promotion to the Premier League and plummeted to the National League North, taking in spells with no fewer than 14 different clubs.

This cover image is a scan of my copy of the book.

NOTE: There is another edition of this book on goodreads with this ISBN. The two book editions are different in that they have slightly different covers (what I think may have happened is that the current book edition has wrongly been given the book cover of the hardback edition). I originally raised this as an Alternative Book Cover but was informed that it should be requested as a different book edition.

I hope that this is ok. Thankyou.

Emmy de Reus (nyneve) | 20400 comments We don't just need just a cover image, but we need an acceptable link to a NON-BOOKSELLER'S bookpage enabling us to check/verify the book's details, e.g. isbn and/or asin, cover image etc. etc.

Alternatively, if you have the book, we can use a scan/photo of your copy of the cover and the page with the publication information, the book's colofon page.
You can upload a scan/photo of your own to the "more photos..." section of your profile: https://www.goodreads.com/photo/new), sectie More photos.. Make sure you state the source of the photo in the text and that your account settings are public (not private).

Nodrog Small | 423 comments Emmy,

Thankyou for looking at my request.

As required I have now uploaded a scan of the book's colofon page:-

As explained in my original request the cover image I have uploaded is also from my copy of the book.

I hope that this is ok.

Emmy de Reus (nyneve) | 20400 comments It had to be an ACE after all, because ISBN's cannot be entered twice in the Goodreads system.
Librarians can also not change/delete existing ISBNs so I was not able to change the ISBN and the format to hardcover (apart from that, this is only what you think may have happened).
