Dougie Brimson is one if the country's truly great modern authors who as of yet hasn't written a bad book yet, Brimson writes about all the subjects that most men are interested in these days.
This is a follow up to an earlier novel called The Crew (reviewed on this site) but don't worry if you haven't read it as this story is connected but you can get the gist just from this book, it's also been announced that a movie version of Top Dog is due to start production in late November 2013 and staring Leo Gregory (the firm remake (green street) as Billy Evans so look out for that too.
