The official Pants Opus?

The official Pants Opus? is the ultimate tribute to one of the wotb's greatest ever posters.

This giant volume tells the inside story of Pants from his foundation in 2001, via Himsworth, of the awkward middle era, through to the halcyon days of Gus Poyet 33 and on to modern-day successes of Pants and countless other weird and wonderful usernames that have kept the WOTB faithful enthralled and entertained throughout the years.

More than ten years in the making, this monumental publication takes the viewer on a journey way beyond the scope of previous history books on any WOTB poster. An array of brilliant writers, photographers, illustrators, artists (and even dancers) combine to highlight the key strands of his DNA which make Pants such a unique WOTB contributor.

"The Pants Opus is the perfect credit to this great poster. I am honoured to be part of the project and I'm sure our wonderful fans will love it" Delia Smith.

"The Pants Opus? is huge ? the weight of it is amazing and the pictures are incredible! I enjoyed participating in the polaroid photo shoot in the chatroom alongside some of the greatest icons in WOTB history (:" Selwyn

"I am both honoured and delighted to be asked to sign the The official Pants Opus? and have already reserved my limited edition copy" Sir Alex Ferguson CBE

The heavyweight content of the Opus incorporates over 100,000 posts plus 1 million tireless other trolls under different usernames displayed on an unprecedented scale, including many hilarious previously unpublished chatroom posts, exclusive photo shoots, senseless rants against referees, beautiful artwork and rare gayoff memorabilia.

A visual feast and a true collectors? item, the The official Pants Opus? World series of the Wrath Champions Edition demands to be seen and experienced by every true WOTB devotee.
