I've never minded that my name's Barry Loser because my coolness has always cancelled it out, but ever since Darren Darrenofski joined school with his horrible little crocodile face he's been completely ruining my life about it.'There’s a FIFA Football World Cup coming up in case you didn’t notice (this review was written a week prior to the Russia World Cup 2018). That means there are lots of tie-in football-related books getting released. This is one of them. If you don’t believe me then look at the opening sentence: “Ever since the World Cup started, everyone in school has been comperleeterly into football.”

Barry Loser was really cool - or 'keel' as his TV hero Future Ratboy would say - until Darren Darrenofski, a crocodile-faced fart burper, joined his school and started to tease him and call him names.

That is until Darren Darrenofski - the boy with the oh-so horrible crocodile face - joins the school and starts to ruin his life.
