About the Author
Hugh Larkin grew up in the Black Country and was keen on sport from an early age, absorbing facts and information as well as taking part in a range of sports. He has always been a big fan of speedway.
Hugh has an MA in South-East Asian Studies from Hull University, where he chose to study because of the city’s rugby league and speedway connections. In 1990, Hugh appeared on ITV’s Sportmasters quiz programme, hosted by Dickie Davies, and went on to reach the quarter-finals.
In 1992, Hugh co-authored the Cricket Quiz Book and also contributed to a ‘Square Football’ Book about the Premier League. Between 2000 and 2003 Hugh contributed match reports on non-league games to the ‘Pyramid Football’ website. He also wrote a regular column for Partybets.
